I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Over the weekend Kaiser said I'd be eligible for the second booster 4/5 but today it's saying I can only get it if I'm immunocompromised. Boo. My first three shots were all Pfizer so I'm planning to mix it up with Moderna if I get the opportunity.

Can they come in without an invitation if they own the property? I would guess so, but if it's your home maybe not.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't know how reliable this really is, but the Red Cross is testing blood donations for covid antibodies again, and mine showed up as high! Which is nice, since I don't qualify for a 2nd booster yet, so I'm not going to worry about it.

Ser Jesse for the win!

That is nice Jesse! Sadly I am a terrible donor and my blood is sludge or something and dries up before I fill a bag. Or even the vials needed for lab work of my own.

Also: in the annals of unfortunate acronyms, I’m working on a project where there are two things being used with complex drug names, one starting with A and one with T. They decided to merge two documents for them, and are now referring to it as the “T&A document”. Oh dear.

I mean, how hard would A&T have been?

I think I'm probably eligible now because over 50. I will try to get Moderna this time. Past three were Pfizer. I guess I should shoot for Friday in case of a reaction.

PT, then doctor, then all meeting since then. Bio break, and next meeting now. Zero work done! And Board call for the non-profit tonight. Good thing tomorrow is clear. Tuesdays are my nemesisises, day of the week-wise.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Oh, I need to schedule my booster part 2. I think I'm eligible at the end of this week.

I shuttled the kitty back and forth to the vet for a dental cleaning, darted into Target and genuinely bought only what I intended to buy (bagged salad and tomatoes), and now I'm keeping half an eye on the kitty, who's still dopey from the anesthesia. Little stoner.

Vet day here too, though they just got Lyme shots and pedi-pedis.

I don’t think I mentioned but Mozzie had a lump removed from his groin area last fall and had an oncology follow up last week. Clean and clear! But looking kind of silly with his undercarriage all shaved.
