Matt, I wanted Pfizer (because my husband, son, and mother got it, and so I just did), but got Moderna. I did tweet a thanks to Miss Dolly.
I just got Pfizerized.
Pfabulous, Tom.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Timelies all!
Yay, Tom!
The day started out badly, with Mr. S having a meltdown because Gary had given the cat their kibble already(Mr. S wanted to do it for some reason only known to him) Then after I had gotten to work and started up my computer Gary called me because he locked himself out of the house, with his car keys inside. I had to drive all the way back home to unlock the door. Then I had to put gas in the car before I went back to work. Luckily, the rest of the day was uneventful.
Ugh, Sheryl, that's a lot. Hope you get a restful weekend!
Yay for more vaccinated 'ffistas! (Pfistas?)
I don't know why the process wasn't to allow everyone to register up front, and then actually schedule based on the criteria. That way, when the numbers in that criteria group tail of you can easily move to the next, and/or call up folks if you have prepared doses ready to go. I also don't know why we're spending time and effort trying to convince people who don't want the vaccine to get it, rather than moving on to the next group, where at least 50% will want it.
Still, I think my family will get vaccinated faster than if we were still overseas. State can't figure out how to get the vaccines out to embassies.
My asthmatic 60-year-old sister just got an appointment for next week, in Berkeley. She'll be so happy, since her daughter is getting married next month and was worried about being the only one at the wedding unvaccinated. (Everyone else has qualified for a variety of reasons.)
I just hit the two-week mark, which I think means I can eat indoors with someone not in my pod? SO EXCITE.
-t, I'm glad your dad seems to have gotten through the surgery ok.
David, 50 lbs is almost a whole person! Congratulations! And congrats to Matilda on the running: it's the one practice I have mostly maintained for the last 40 years.
It was a long week and I spent a lot of time on the phone telling people things. Now I have a cocktail (A "Star": equal parts Calvados and sweet vermouth, with some bitters, and a cherry), and the dog wants dinner, and then I will watch some MCU on Disney+.
50 lbs is almost a whole person!
At least 7 babies!
Swearing off babies does wonders for the cholesterol, too.
I hear.

Heh. "Is it babies?"
Talked to my dad and he is giddy with how much better he feels. He was on local anesthetic for the stent and could watch the screen showing his arteries, I guess? Says it was like watching a Bergman film, all black and white mysterious flows of substance, apparently it was very clear when the stent was in place and the one artery went from liking like a balloon with a string pinching it shut to a great torrent and all the other veins etc in view had a bunch more blood to work with. I am amazed at the state of medicine these days.
Also talked to my mom who is much more tired than he is after all that, but happy.
That's wonderful, -t! Also, with a local as opposed to heavy sedation, recovery is a lot lot easier, so I'm not surprised that he's immediately feeling a lot better, instead of fighting through the post-anesthetic gronk.
