Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Our wings are not tired.

That is a delightful response. So, did he talk you into taking the DIY vaccine, or out of it, that is the question.

move out and draw fire

I have absolutely no intention of making and taking the DIY vaccine! I'm supposed to be reporting on biotech and synthetic biology trends for work, and this is a big one. Fun fact - you can order all the stuff you need to make it online, including the covid proteins (although there are some shipping restrictions).

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

That’s disturbing

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I probably can spare some Covid proteins for anyone really committed to the DIY vaccine.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

My parents, Gary's dad and stepmom and Gary's mom have all had their first COVID vaccines.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My brother recently texted me an xkcd where the US map had 10 states strategically removed and asked whether I could figure out which ones were missing. In less than 5 minutes I had. He asked how I did it, had I cheated. And I said that no, i just know all 50 states in alphabetical order so I just went down the list. He thought that knowing all 50 states in alphabetical order sounded crazy - I replied that it was a song for 6th grade graduation, so I will know them forever.

I used the state capitols song from Animaniacs for that one.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And Columbus is the capital of O-HI-O

When I was in 2nd grade my family spent the year in Orange County (my dad was transferred temporarily), and I learned to sing the 50-state song because we had to sing it every week at assembly. 45 years later, I still remember it and use.

My employer, who fishes people out of the water and so forth, has decided that my office-mates and I are essential workers, and is making vaccines available to us. So I have an appointment on Thursday for the first shot. Sadly I have multiple meetings the rest of the day, so I hope it doesn't knock me out (as I hear it does for some people).

I'm pretty excited about being able to go back to dog class and maybe get my hair cut...

See, I didn’t learn those songs so I don’t have that knowledge. There are a bunch of states that it is very easy for me to forget about.

I live such a sheltered life that I had no idea that there was such a thing as DIY vaccines. Yikes!

Steph, how are you and Tim doing today?

People watching the Super Bowl and/or commercials and half time entertainment? I haven't even checked to see what the entertainment is! But I will be watching.
