We all lost...

This past Tuesday was Election Night and it started off hopeful but ended with disappointment.  It's amazing how constant lying, making up stories (which is basically lying too), being a convicted criminal (jury of their own peers), multiple bankruptcies, never earned a dollar and belittle multiple ethnic groups and women doesn't matter to anyone anymore.  America has lost its morals and those who claim to have them, don't.  I was thinking the other day that... I'm not a Democrat (formally Republican) and I voted for them (Democrats).  I'm not black but I voted for them.  I'm not gay, trans, bi, etc. .. but I voted for them.  I'm not in the military nor ever served, but I voted for them.  I'm not Latino but I voted for them. And the big one, I'm not a woman but, I voted for them.  We have let them all down.

Weekly Update:
Have you ever had a craving for something and couldn't remember what it was called so you could look and ask for it?  I was like that recently for over a week and been craving this nutty, not too sweet chewy candy that is middle-eastern based.  Then I finally found it, basically it's a almond nougat and they are kind of pricy for such a little thing. I then found some on Amazon that came bout to about 50 cents a piece AND they were sugar-free!  I ordered some and it wasn't too bad if you break it down per piece but the box was so tiny.  I think I finished the whole box in about 10-days only having 2 to 4 pieces a day but it was so good.  The crunchy almonds in the soft chewy nougat, wondering if I want to get more or maybe wait for some Black Friday deals and stock up.  But it was a good treat and satisfied the craving I was having.

At the movies:
Maintaining it's hold at #1 for a 3rd week in a row is Venom: The Last Dance with 16.2 million as it breaks the 100 mil mark.  This has performed over time much better than expected and should end on a good note.  New at #2 is The Best Christmas Pageant Ever with 11.1 mil and maybe a bit too early for the holidays?  Also new at #3 is Heretic with 11 mil and a very decent number for this time of year till we get to the holidays.  Drop down to #4 is The Wild Robot with 6.7 mil after having a great run this Fall.  Rounding off the top 5 is Smile 2 with 5 mil extra and will likely frown out soon.
