INAUGURATION DAY YESTERDAY

Yesterday the 45th President of the United States of America was inaugurated. The direction of the country has been spun around a full 180°.  Lefties everywhere are going nuts. Righties, like me, everywhere are celebrating. OK, Mr. President, now the real work begins. You have made a believer out of me. I actually think that you are going to try to be a different type of leader and that you really care about being judged by your accomplishments, not by your soaring rhetoric. This is good, because soaring rhetoric is not your strong point. You are known for speaking clearly. Right on cue, the lefties all dismissed your inaugural speech. Me? I loved it. No soaring rhetoric. Just plain spoken words. Words that can be understood by everyone (except over-educated, indoctrinated, mind-numbed robots in the universities). Still today, I am talking about a different inauguration.

Today, I am going to re-inaugurate the healthier lifestyle which I professed to discover a couple of years ago and have turned away from over the past days, weeks and months. I weighed myself today and I checked in at 244 lbs. (Yes, I can even now, still take some solace as I remember that I used to be 309 lbs.) This rationalization is becoming harder and harder to mollify myself. In fact, it no longer can mollify me at all. I am disgusted with myself.  Today I am inaugurating a return to a time when every decision made to stick something in my mouth, is carefully considered.  I do not intend to return to the 1000 calorie days of two years ago, but I will try to keep the calorie count under 2000. Just as the voters turned the country around by electing Donald Trump, my mind is going to turn myself around by electing to be a bit smarter in my dietary choices. This starts now. Today.  That was my inaugural day speech.
