Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Much healing~ma, Susan. And if there is anything to be found, as David said, precancerous is the best time to find it.

I do expect this Covid having and recovery will be much easier.

I just really, really was starting to feel like I'd started kicking long Covid out the door, so the possibility reality of being Covid+ is stressful because what if the long Covid comes back? Without much sciencing to read up on, I don't know what to expect long-term.

Thank you all for the good wishes.

I'm getting better at keeping the anxiety from seizing the wheel

This is good.

Thrive to spite them

Susan, I know finding out there are pre cancerous markers is scary but you now have really important health information that you didn't have before and you can be proactive about this and take care of things while it's still precancerous.

So far the aspirin seems to be working on the flushing side effects.

Well, the good-job-news~ma worked like a charm, y'all. I'm moving to a new position under my favorite manager, for more money, and with the chance to learn a bunch of cool things. And I didn't have to go through the interview process for it—my future manage just went to HR and said, "We need her on our team. Please make it happen." Yay!

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Great news, Calli!!!

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

Congrats, Calli! That's so good to hear!

Thanks, y'all! I'm pretty chuffed. I've been at my current workplace for seven years, and I've felt a bit like I've been stagnating for the past year or so.

Great news, Calli!

Maybe your fresh crop of antibodies knocks out the long COVID once and for all? Purely anecdata, but my “tested positive, felt lousy for two days“ second bout in November put an end to the lingering fatigue and breathyness I’d endured since my proper scary first bout in the middle of September.
