Chalked off

Twas a nip and tuck kind of day, with near fainting and general oddness from the get-go. Fortunately there were distractions and pleasantness, or we'd have sunk into a sloughish sadness.
Everything about the ruling group of this country disgusts me. They gorge on piles of rich fatty foods while mouthing words about wartime necessities. I'd like to see them standing around a burn barrel, heating up a can of soup.
