That sounds terrible, Toddson.
I JUST got my vaccine appointment. I have no qualms about using my diabeetus to get the vaccine. They JUST opened up the poor people site (the only one you can go to on foot or on the bus or in a Lyft....) to my zip code and by the time I got my insuance information straighten around, it had gone from about 30 appointments available to about 8. I was lucky to slide in.
The advice was to celebrate with ice cream and then go home in case of side effects.
This is, like, universally applicable advice.
I saw something where a person got an appointment and went to the site; it was being run by One Medical (?) - not sure exactly what it is, but it seems to be a private healthcare operation that there have been issues with. Well, the person got there for their appointment and was told that they'd have to sign up for a One Medical membership - at $199 - and when they refused, had their appointment cancelled and they were sent away.
Hey, Gud! Glad to hear from you. Good luck with the vaccinations.
Toddson, that is horrifying.
Did it strike anyone how weird that golden statue of Trump was at CPAC? He rather famously has such strong support from the evangelical right and there is a golden idol at CPAC? Have these people never been to Sunday school? Something about the sheer irony makes me think of this:
I've seen some things suggesting it's actually a Big Boy statue painted gold (fake gold) with the "patriotic" elements added. And there have been a LOT of comments about the Golden Calf.
In the One Medical story, I did a search and it seems that they're no longer getting a vaccine allocation because there were charges that they were giving priority to executives of the company and their friends, families, etc., to receive it. (I'd been sort of aware of them, having seen one of their facilities and hearing reports that they were not accepting some insurance, but I'd never paid much attention to them.)
Good one, Gud. "Just any kind of sign"
If that is true about One Medical there should be criminal charges. Argh.
I would like some ice cream. I a familiar with the usual side effects of ice cream and will take the risk.
't, is the issue with dairy? I'm asking because there is sherbet and there are some non-dairy gelato or other frozen desserts. I sometimes have issues with milk products that are heavy on the fat, but there are times when nothing but the real thing will do.
It's more of an "I ate too much ice cream and now I need a nap" issue. For me, the more fat in my dairy products the better - butter and cream are fine, but skim milk will make my body unhappy and ice cream is usually on the richer side so ok for me. Sorbets are great, though, for sure, and whatever Trader Joe's non-dairy ice cream sandwiches are made of is delicious

What's this?

I was not aware that TJ's had started making a non-dairy ice cream sandwich. I shall investigate!
