I got my fallopian tubes removed the last time he got elected. Really really grateful to my past self, because I do not have health insurance this time around.

Almost 2 months.

Lightening struck near my house once, blew up the transformer on the power line, exploded a giant oak tree in the back yard, and killed a wire leading from the power line into the circuit box. Also the circuit box blew up. It took over 7 weeks and 4 professionals looking at it before we could figure out what needed to get fixed.

We did use a generator occasionally so it wasn’t 7 weeks straight, but we would go as long as we could between uses because iirc gas was very expensive at the time, and technically the house had no power for that long.

Idk if this counts as a phrase, but on the internet, people talk about their pets crossing the rainbow bridge when they die. That’s not how the rainbow bridge poem goes. Pets go to a magnificent field when they die. They are healed of all injury and illness. When you die, they find you in the field and you cross the bridge together. It’s much sweeter the way it was written than the way people use it.
