'Life of the Party'
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.
Timelies all!
I'm sorry askye.
It snowed here. Still had to go in to work, as I'm an essential employee.(Basically the fed government said that those who could telework, should. I can't) There was one other person in the lab besides me. There was supposed to be one other, but she didn't come in. Luckily the workload was pretty light.
Yikes, Pix, that's a lot.
I’m sorry, askye.
Nothing much~ma for the lump, Pix. I hope your coworker comes through ok.
My university is going remote until January 18, in the hope that the Omicron surge will have peaked by then. I start back (from my living room) tomorrow. It’s been a nice break, although I could have lived with not spending half of it with a cold (apparently not COVID, though, so at least there’s that).
We are still planning in person orientation January 6. I do not know how long this will last.
Pix- that sounds terrible.
Askye- I am so sorry.
One of my favorite residents died (in a rehab care place) the same day that Betty White did, but I didn't find out until this morning. She was 93 and very frail, so while it's not tragic, it's still sad. Part of the job, I know, but still.
But at least two other residents came back from hospitalization today. And only one resident is on Covid isolation (not quarantine -- so not an active infection) so overall the situation seems under control.
On the up side, I got another favored resident out to get his glasses repaired. Found a convenient parking space in Harvard Square just around the corner, too -- and then I was able to get my own glasses repaired, because a teensy screw came loose over the weekend.
Still, it was a day that I kept paddling as fast as I could.

And you did it!
Pix, I'm very sorry. It's a lot. ~ma to you.
askye and dcp - I am so sorry about your losses. My condolences.
Hi, hi. Laura emailed and asked me to post this very important announcement: Yesterday, we celebrated the natal day of shrift! Many happy returns to you, shrift. Glad you're home safe and sound.
As I've said many a time to many of you -- Birthday +1 is totally a thing. Happy B+1, shrift!
(Laura is recovering in bed this week -- if memory serves, it's her foot surgery; she misses y'all and is hoping to make a return to the glowy box tomorrow).
Pix that is a lot. Take care of yourself...
