Off to a slow start this morning

because I had one of those nights when you get plenty of sleep but still wake up tired. I don't recall the specifics of my dreams last night. I just know they were not pleasant. I think it was the ice cream I had for dessert. My body isn't used to so much sugar so close to bedtime.
Here in the US, today is Independence Day Eve, the day when the ghost of Thomas Jefferson can be seen walking about Independence Hall in Philadelphia wondering if the delegates to the Continental Congress will like the paper he wrote - or so I imagine.
Tomorrow is the day when Americans celebrate the day we threw off the yoke of British tyranny and set ourselves on the path of submitting to corporate tyranny administered through Congressional representatives we elect but big business owns. Such is the nature of a capitalistic society where Mammon is king and the primary goal of the rich is to get richer while keeping the worker who makes their money for them numb and happy in their worker bee role.
Rant concluded. I warned you I awoke in an off mood this morning or did I?
Today is also Day 3 of Camp NaNoWriMo July 2019, so I need to get it in gear and get writing once I've cleared my notifications. Thank you all for your words of support and encouragement.
I hope you have/are having/or had a great 7/3/2019.

That picture looks like my cartoon profile pic, but a scarier version. Mine is cuter though, lol. Just kidding.
Happy Independence Day to you, and great endeavor for your writings in future.

Get to writing and maybe you will feel better. But you are right about government.
