Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Can I say an open and shut case?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Random - did you know that there is such a thing as pop-up stickers??!!??
WHAAAAAAAAT?
There was a great article a while back by a guy who had a shared mailbox with his female co-worker.
I remember that! I also seem to recall a trans scientist who after he transitioned, he was told he was smarter than "his sister" who was actually HIM.

There was also one from a man who transitioned to woman who said when she went looking for a job, all she was offered was either lower level and/or paid a lot less. Including a position under what he'd been offered some time before the transition.

I did a lot of onerous tasks today. Healthcare related--asking for referrals for O & R, requesting insurance coverage information, getting a blood draw for me and a follow up appointment later--FLU SHOT! Yay!

I will be rewarded with C's homemade chicken dumpling soup.

Our wings are not tired.

That's some heavy duty adulting there, Cash! Enjoy the soup!

Cash, you deserve all the soup you desire.

In other news, I came across this YouTube video of a guinea pig trying on costumes. He was NOT a fan.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Yay for adulting, Cash!

My NP said I can wait until March for my COVID booster since I was infected in September.

But I got my flu shot AND a bonus pneumonia vaccine (high risk—I’ll get a booster when I’m 65).

What is even happening?

I haven't seen Tom Scola posting here in a couple of weeks. Have people seen him around on FB or the like?

Excellent. I've had my flu shot and Covid booster. I need to see about getting my Shingles vaccine.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

FB and Tumblr, yes. Also IG, I think. (Now I feel like a creeper.)

I can get a Covid booster soon -- beginning of December, I think. I got my flu shot, and I scheduled a shingles shot but felt really under the weather that week so I cancelled it. I need to reschedule it.
