Yay Steph's dad!
Have we seen the marching band yet??? I just got to get on because work was so zoom meeting heavy.
Jayne: There's times I think you don't take me seriously. I think that ought to change. Mal: Do you think it's likely to?

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That is awesome, Steph!

Yay vaccine for dad of Tep!
According to my mom, the vaccine rollout has been wildly inconsistent around here, with some areas having extra doses (possibly due to people choosing not to get it, possibly just because the distribution was wack) to make available to the next tier. She said signing up for her appointment was like trying to buy concert tickets for a popular show. She had to sit on my dad and force him to keep going until he got an appointment, he does not do well with the "sorry, that date is no longer available" messages. I haven't heard yet that my brother that works in the care facility has gotten his, and I think he would say, so that's a little troubling. Everyone else I would know about is further down in the chart, I think.

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

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
The TVs in the various meeting rooms were all turned to the Inauguration so I got glimpses as I went about my work. The longest I could watch was actually Trump departing the WH, which was sufficiently satisfying. What a dumpster fire of an executive branch that was.
The only good thing I can imagine coming out of this is that we can use it as a Dread Example whenever somebody says something along the lines of "How bad could [Candidate X] be anyway?"

My sister was supposed to get her first shot a week ago this past Monday, but they didn't have enough vaccine.

NEWSFLASH: I ordered way too much food. Tasty, though. And will be good cold, I'm sure.

I have slightly weird tasting homemade Inauguration Brownies at the moment. I kind of want to order out, but I kind of have a roast de-thawed in the fridge.
My anxiety waned as the day went on. Poet Amanda was wonderful.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Other than watching the Inauguration on tv, no celebrations planned here.

I didn't think to defrost the mahi-mahi in my freezer in time to make a celebratory meal tonight. Suppose I'll order out, and wash whatever the meal is down with blood orange soda to toast Twitler's long-overdue departure.
