No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Our wings are not tired.

The stress level everywhere is just so high. I am more relaxed being triple vaxxed, but I don't really go anywhere. When I do go places I am mindful.

Finished my Christmas cards! That was a biggee. Now to finish the house prep. Ugh. Already had a call that someone wanted to come today. Nope. They can come Wednesday. Monday is my crazed work day and tomorrow I have the roof pressure cleaner people here. Thursday to photo crew. Overwhelmed, but it should be over soon.

Waiting on call from surgery schedule person.

Yeah Cindy I hear you! I am v glad to be spending this month somewhere sunnier than home—January is going to be a big letdown though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

things I'm reading from doctors right now indicate that my immunity is already on the wane, when I never even took advantage of the vax.

Note to self: Next time, take advantage of that post-booster doorknob licking window!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Since I just got boosted, I'm going to lick every doorknob I can just as soon as the 2 weeks are over and I am at [monster truck rally announcer voice] FULL IMMUNITY.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Oh Gud, none of this is ok. Maybe your first step is to see a doctor and a therapist so you stop wanting to hurt yoursel. You don't have to fix everything right now, just take the first step for that. Do you have a doctor you trust? Make an appointment today. If you don't, look for a doctor today. Just do one thing.

What is even happening?

Slather ye doorknobs while ye may.
Covid is still dragging on;
And this same Delta that reigns today
Tomorrow will be Omicron.

Sorry. I cross-posted silliness, while Trudy was being helpful. And Trudy, I think you're right.

Silliness is part of the deal!

Oh Gud, my heart aches for you.

Echoing what everyone has said, Gud, and yes to Trudy's latest post about just doing that one, first thing by making an appointment with a doctor today.

And, yes, askye, thank you for sharing your story here and for standing up for your co-worker. Both brave and caring in both cases.
