All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Yeah, the caution thing is really variable. My landlord’s favorite plumber basically quit residential work because he got sick of clients hovering over his shoulder without masks—in late 2020. My car mechanics are all mask-schmask.

Most of my handimen and tradefolk of various sorts - and there’ve been A LOT this year [cries] - have been actually very good about it. The Wisconsin ones less so but most of that work has been outside.

Thrive to spite them
Tom I am not 100%sure the best places to donate but I came across an article and it links to Puerto Rico based organizations and others that have been working in Puerto Rico before.
There us also World Central Kitchen . Here is a tweet from them. [link]

That's bullshit! Dang.

Happy birthday wishes to Sophia Brooks today! I hope that it is a most delightful day and that the year to come is filled with happiness. Sophia shares her birthday with smonster, who has hasn't been seen often around these parts lately, but I do hope she is spoiled appropriately today with well wishes.

I get the whole technical 'pandemic' classification and all that. It has changed, particularly for those of us smart enough to get our vaccinations. But yeah, crazy contagious and disruptive in life to a large degree still.

My plans to see my four year old niece who lives in SF have been cancelled because practically everyone on that side of the family has covid. I haven't seen her since she was 1, and I'm very grateful I never told ltc we were going to see her so that she doesn't have to be devastated.
Did I ever post here that I went to high school with the woman selling pictures/memorabilia of her Billionaire college boyfriend? She was 3 years ahead of me, and I don't remember her at all.
