Man, I just want to put everyone in bubbles
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

According to the VA my dad should be in the next eligible group for the vaccine. That’s after people in homes and, I hope and assume, healthcare workers. So not imminent necessarily but at least in view.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Agreed.
However, I have only recently come to the realization that I am in general not really okay. It was hard to admit to myself (and I have yet to figure out anything to do about it) because all the particular things that have made this year so hard for everyone have been relatively easy for me - I don't mind being alone, I still have a job and a paycheck, I haven't been physically suffering, so I should be ok. But I'm not.
Yeah. I've been realizing that in addition to missing work I'm missing the atmosphere of working a block away from Macy's and the Christkindlemarket. I also have no exercise regimen beyond going to work and that's really becoming a problem.

Much nocovid~ma to all who might have been exposed.
Meanwhile, here, still no news about Batcat (she is still alive, still not eating, still very frightened. I'm waiting to hear from the vet about today's blood count and general test to determine what's next for her. Options are her coming home to see if she recovers and eats there, or the end of the road).
In non sick cat news, we will have another elections in 2021 and the government is once again falling apart and we are approaching another lockdown. Who needs a functioning government in the middle of a pandemic?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Shir, look at what the U.S. has done without a (fully) functioning government!
Oh, wait . . . .

I have Zoom group therapy today. I’m hoping it goes better this week. It’s a different therapist this time because they switch off every other week.

Two of my friends from college who are healthcare workers have already gotten the first shot, per Facebook. Seems like a good sign that it's getting distributed to that group pretty quickly, which is good.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Sending a Christmas themed flower arrangement to the parents today. "On the first day of quarantine our daughter sent to us, some flowers to acknowledge that this sucks."
I am welcoming ideas for other things I can send. BONUS, throwing some business to Anaheim stores close to them!

Zoom group therapy sounds hard.
I also have multiple friends posting their vaccine selfies. I am jealous!
