Oh no, Hil. Refuah shlema.

Our wings are not tired.
What a mess, Hil. People have relaxed to a large degree. I'm not as diligent as I was in the past, but I certainly wouldn't be out and about with a cold without at least testing. I wouldn't want to spread a cold either. My cousin just ended up with pneumonia from a simple cold. Keep that stuff to yourself!
{{Shir}} Thank you for checking in.

Okay, I’m waiting to see the OB/GYN, and I’m strongly resisting the urge to say “We sent you 500 ravens!” If it weren’t her last day, I’d be grumbling at her about not answering three (3) messages from me. Rude.
Anyway, cross your fingers she switches my meds without any difficulty and sends me on my way.

Ugh, acid reflux woke me up last night by going down my windpipe and provoking hours of hacking and coughing. At least my phone conspired to get me more rest by turning itself off before my wake-up alarms could ring—Yay? Luckily no meetings were missed and I think I've caught up to where I should be at work by this point of the morning.

How miserable! May your stomach keep the acid where it belongs henceforth.
Mulling whether I need to be productive again today or if I can get by with running and doing the dishes.

Thanks for checking in, Shir.
Hil, I'm sorry about your cousin's choices. I hope your family gets through it with as little pain as possible.
Quite the productive day, Hec!
My apartment seems especially quiet today. I think I'm going to break out the holiday music. No one but the cats are here to be bothered.

Ugh, Matt, that stinks. And hurts. Boo..
David, you were damn productive yesterday, just sayin'. You could stand some chill, no? Understatement of the... very long time.
askye, good luck getting those meds. I've thought of being evaluated myself, but then, I'm like, "Well, it's not as if I'd be able to get my hands on any meds prescribed anyway." Maybe not the best attitude, but kind of true.
Edited: oh, Hil, I forgot to say, that also stinks, and I hope everyone recovers well and fast without too much discomfort.

Since my operative principle going forward is Spend Time Connecting and Reconnecting with People, I am letting that dictate my activity.
My friend Claudine is in town so I will wash dishes and vacuum before she arrives with her friend Gigi, so the house is somewhat presentable.
Then we'll go to Alembic.
