Hi! Hihihihihihihihi! I am a wee bit manic, which I'll take, since this is the best I've felt in 4 years. Thank goodness there was a fandom thing to take the edge off a couple days ago, otherwise I'd have been running down Market screaming for joy (which I'm sure other people actually did, this is SF).
But seriously, my mom texted me the results this morning as I was walking home from my run, and I yelled YES so loud I'm sure I woke my neighbors.
Also, you are beautiful and I love you very much.
ltc just stamped her feet and said, "I demand more candy!"
sj, every time you post about ltc, I'm torn between "Our daughters must meet ASAP" and "If our daughters ever meet, it will be the death of us".
That press conference is beyond surreal -- just so pathetic.
My favorite joke about the press conference, famously located between a sex toy store and a crematorium, called it "the perfect place to go fuck yourself and die."

My favourite was "stiff competition on both sides."

Heh. Get our two girls in the same room with Stitch and we’re all in trouble, but seriously when there isn’t a global pandemic we should make this happen.
I skipped the press conference, opting for the dancing in the street scenes instead.
All feels better in the world. Slept better last night. And did 60 laps in my pool in the pouring rain this morning. Found an old dorky clear blue plastic sun visor thing of my mom's which did an excellent job keeping the rain out of my eyes. Didn't care about the rest of me, because in the pool.
I decided I must be old because I did not go join the dancing in the streets, though I did drive by it a few hours in while taking the dog to the park. Might’ve been more likely had it happened tuesday. Or Wednesday. Or Thursday. By Saturday i was too tired for that! Went to bed at 830pm, asleep by 9!
Ugh, Tim is a little worried about Covid. There are 2 people at his work on day shift who tested positive, although he's still second shift and never ever crossed paths with those 2 people. But since Thursday he's had a dry cough and is very fatigued and has muscle aches and nausea. No fever. No problems breathing.
The CDC's website has a coronavirus self-checker that's a questionnaire based on symptoms, general physical condition, etc. Once I checked the box for "takes medication that suppresses immune system," it popped up a box that said "Call your medical provider." I think it's a better-safe-than-sorry response, but yeah -- if he's worried, he should follow up.
The urgent care near us does telehealth visits for Covid pre-screening, so he's going to see if he can do that today and see if they want him to go in to get tested.
Covid is so freaking annoying because of how its symptoms are vague enough that they overlap with generic viruses and/or seasonal allergies. And no one needs to worry every damn time they cough, you know? Gah.
Ah, hell, Teppy, I hope it's a generic bug (and what kind of fucked-up timeline is it where I'm actively wishing for that?) and that he can get in easily, if he needs a test.
JZ, thank you for attempting to fact-smack the idiots who showed up on my FB post. I appreciate it.
