Just off the phone with my mum.
Our conversation turned to politics, and she said the following:
“I hate him, and his politics. But… he’s really, *really* attractive, and all my friends think so too!”

Call me a conspiracy theorist all you like, but I don’t think Canks is building a ballroom at the White House.

This has been the first weekend (Friday - Sunday) where I’ve not had a single alcoholic drink in I don’t know how long.
