GUNG HAY FAT CHOY!

Happy New Year of the Rooster, or as a server in Sarasota said "Year of Chicken." Hard to believe we had my father's memorial service during the last "year of chicken" twelve years ago.

WEARING THE RIGHT STUFF AT THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME

An old guy who was lost at the March for Life  thought I was a security guard. I was able to get him to a Capitol cop and tell his family he was okay.

TO THOSE WHO CAME TO OUR CITY WHETHER TO CELEBRATE, WHINE OR FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF:

Thank you for not trashing it (most of you) 

And thank you for spending money here, no matter what your reason.

Archie Bunker was right when he told Meathead to "go carry a sign."

SOMETHING GOOD YOU CAN DO IF YOU'RE IN THE DMV THIS WEEKEND

DONALD TRUMP IS OFFICIALLY PRESIDENT

Thank G-d.

AS CEE LO GREEN WOULD SAY....

Fuck you. Collectively. To the Promptcare doctor who blew me off and told me to take Claritin/Flonase, the receptionist at the next urgent care who wouldn't take my insurance and told me to Google another urgent care, the moron at 7-11 who tried to get me to buy a doughnut when all I wanted was some tea to settle my stomach, the receptionist and the old lady in the ER who told me to sit down when I was in too much pain to sit still and the transport guy who called an hour before pick up time (twice): Fuckanedoe you. And to the Washington Hospital Center ER staff: when you put an IV in someone's arm, you're supposed to take it out before discharge. I ended up pulling it out myself and bleeding all over the floor. At least cops will be able to identify me that way.

My first day off since December 16th.

O2 SATS WERE 92

A couple weeks ago they were 90 or 91. Yeah, I realize I'm lots of fun recently.

If I didn't know better I'd swear my gall bladder had grown back.

ALPHA, BRAVO, CHARLIE

Someone asked if I was a police dispatcher. I forget why.

SOMETHING I NEED TO REMEMBER

RIP DONALD SAVKO

He was Mom's cousin. I liked him: http://www.heraldmailmedia.com/obituaries/donald-william-savko/article_329ee856-4bcb-509f-9ded-22bc786515cd.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&utm_campaign=user-share 

MOM'S HOME FROM REHAB, FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE

She says she's got her phone and if she falls again she'll just call 911. 

MANNA FOOD CENTER IS COLLECTING DONATIONS IN FRONT OF THE GIANT IN CHEVY CHASE (WISCONSIN AVE)

See http://www.mannafood.org

MOM IS SUPPOSED TO COME HOME TODAY

Not because either of us wants her to or she's 100% better but because Medicare won't pay for it anymore .

35 YEARS AGO TODAY AIR FLORIDA FLIGHT 90 HIT THE 14TH ST BRIDGE

Three people were also killed on the Metro. It was on the Orange Line. I was on it but going in the opposite direction.

SCREENED LARRY O'CONNOR'S CALLS

Talked to Sean Spicer. And Ann Coulter.

NO ONE HAS ANY WORK ETHIC ANYMORE

Caller: Is this Jane Hautanen? 

Me: Yes it is. 

Caller We've found something in your computer...

Me: And you're gonna ask me for my credit card numbers, right? 

Caller How did you know?

Me: That's an old scam. 

Caller: Ok, thank you. >Hangs up<

I've NEVER had a scammer give up that easily. I was disappointed--I would have liked to play with her some more. 

Too bad there is no such Facebook status as "homicidal"

TODAY IT WAS 34 DEGREES--THAT'S TWICE AS WARM AS YESTERDAY

This cold weather takes the starch out of a person as much as the 90+ degree wx in summertime. 

It was 17 degrees this morning, supposed to go into the 60's later this week.

janedoe@seductive.com

I HEAR THIS A LOT ON TV:

It was 18 degrees when I got up this morning.

Идёт снег

First snow of the season. And of the year. As I speak Russian better than anyone here, R says it was probably ME who did the hacking.

At least five killed, eight injured at Ft. Lauderdale Airport

THIS IS AWESOME

This kid is incredible. And also, Pamela Adlon, who was the voice of Bobby Hill, is the voice of Halley on the Big Bang Theory--two of the greatest shows ever.

GUY ON NCIS MENTIONED GOING TO A SPORTS BAR ON U ST.

As far as I know the only sports bar on U St. is a gay bar. 

janedoe@seductive.com

And it gets weirder.

TOUGH CALL

Last week it was Law & Order SVU vs a Breaking Bad marathon, this week it's Downton Abbey:
