Woohoo, flight home tonight is already delayed 20 minutes. Last night, the same flight was 1.5 hours late, which will result in us getting home after midnight.
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Our wings are not tired.
Well, my decision to isolate and not socialize with family was the right one. (I did visit with MIL without hugs although we are all vaccinated) Anyway, SIL and her 1 & 8 year old sons, and almost surely her husband all have Covid. Kids are spiking high fevers, she is sick. MIL is a wreck with worry. I haven't talked to SIL myself because I can't be civil right now. Her busiest week of the year, and guess what, can't go to work now. I have steam coming out of my ears. Just talked to DH and he is calling his mother to make reassuring sounds that kids recover and SIL is healthy, etc. and grrrr. I know her husband won't ever agree to get tested, or treated, but she did say she was going to the doctor. MIL did go to a gathering with her Christmas evening, but she at least was masked. She is feeling fine and vaccinated.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. started feeling sick last night.(Sore throat, nasal congestion, fever.) Didn't even want to eat much. Fell asleep early. Gary took him to the doctor this afternoon, where they did a COVID test. Hopefully it will be negative.

Digits crossed for a negative result!

Hope Dana gets home at a decent hour.
Laura, did DH go over to see his sister?

Ugh, Laura. And, ugh, Dana.
Negative test result-ma, Sheryl.

Yikes Laura. Good luck to the fam.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I tried to make an expression the other day about keeping our attitudes positive and our tests negative, but I couldn't pull it off.
I keep almost crying… like, for why?!?
I was crying on my walk the other day after they told us we aren't coming back to the office in January because I can't take another year of that fucking walk. (At least I'll need to come up with some new routes.)

everything is just too much.
making food everyday is too much. not having answers for things at work is too much. numbers of people testing positive more than quadrupling is too much. bills to pay is too much. making this list is now too much.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I hear you, msbelle. It really is. Can you take a short break and just not for a little while? Would that help?
