Hell, I don't know. If I had wanted schooling, I'da gone to school.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I just skipped a hundred posts, but I'm going to answer Perkins question about the weekend.

Tonight, N, K, my mom and me went to one of the two first free clinics around LA for our H1N1 vaccine. I can't really explain why I feel so relieved to have gotten it, but it was kind of crazy. (They ran out and had to bring more down and we were in the last 100 or so they vaccinated.

Tomorrow we are going to the Aquarium and then to the Arboretuem. Sunday I have a ton of work to do but then we are going to a hockey game.

Kinda thinking it will be hard for me to get the H1N1 vacc here. Severe shortage, out of their priority list.

Normally, I don't do flu vaccs, but given the Y and herd immunity....

Heh. Project Rungay has affected our household conversation.

I just pointed at JZ and barked: "You! Lesbian! Martini?"

sara, I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to get a vaccine before I got swine flu itself. But I got both my seasonal flu shot this week, my swine flu shot and my TB test.

We have to take Noah back in four weeks, but I'm so irked that his regular doc won't even do seasonal flu for him.

They just interviewed someone on the local news who is recovering from H1N1 and his long drawn-out recovery sounds a lot like my long drawn-out recovery from the cold I got in NY. Nothing was very fluish about this--It felt like a cold from the get go.

I just bought TG tickets. Pricier than before, but fuckit.

They are rationing H1N1 here. It's hard to get. Right now, it is just hospitals and high risk. And they don't have enough for them.

Here they are doing 9 hour clinics every day at multiple sites. Today it was two sites and tomorrow it will be 13 and every day after it varies.

They see ~300 people per hour.

That's a lot of vaccine.

I just paid bills. My bank balance is not as scary as I thought, but I am still nervous because I almost completely cleaned out my house account paying for my new oil tank. My problem is that I am in a total shopping mood after a few months of not spending any money. And I feel like I should take advantage of the high CDN dollar to do some online cross border shopping. I almost bought a painting last weekend, but I decided to sleep on it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just realized I already paid my November rent, which is an awesome financial realization!

In news from my exciting life, I'm watching the season premiere of Nip/Tuck from last week, and Julian McMahon must have spent the whole year in Australia, because his accent is for shit.

I almost bought a painting last weekend, but I decided to sleep on it.

I thought they made you buy it after doing that.
