You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

When I signed up on the CVS site, it basically said “you get what you get and you don’t complain about it, missy!” So Moderna it is.

Yeah, when I got it, they had it organized so that everybody on the same day gets the same kind, and then you come back exactly 21 days later to get your second one, so they just have to make sure the days line up right.

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

Kaiser was handing out tokens when you came in the door with Ps or Ms (J&J was on hold) and when I got my first shot there were a lot of people getting their second shot who had to specify what they’d had before. I guess that’ll be me in a couple of weeks.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I was at a POD mostly for DoE employees at a high school gym. We got Moderna because it's a little easier to handle for that kind of setting. The hospital right by the school where my office is does Pfizer. I expect it to be overrun with teenagers in the near future.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

My university had several vax sites open to staff and instructors, and they all had Pfizer. So that’s what I got.

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

Timelies all!

Mixed marriage here. I'm Team Moderna, since that's what NIH was giving their employees. Gary's Team Pfizer, and has an appointment for his second shot Friday.(He went through the county site.)

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Jim's mother is in the hospital with a fever. I have said no, I'm sorry, our limit is one parent hospitalized per week, she'll simply have to get better and go home.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Excellent advice, amyparker. Let's hope she does just that!

Dana, there's a fic writer who was very prolific in SGA and SPN fandoms on LJ. Most of her stuff migrated to AO3, and she is now writing in CQL, just as an observance of trivia.

Hooray for everybody getting whatever kind of vaccine they can, even if they have to fly from another country to do it!

So very frustrated with dealing with Mr. S. He's been annoying, bossy and rude a lot lately,

You make reasonable proclamations, amyparker.

Sorry you're dealing with that, Sheryl.

I had brunch OUTSIDE at a RESTAURANT with a FRIEND today for the first time in a year and a half. Joy. All fully vaccinated, natch. It was a beautiful day, too. So nice.

Ah, Sheryl, I'm sorry. You can love your kids and still have moments of wanting to load them into the bucket of a trebuchet.

JenP, BRUNCH!!!!!! That is a very happy thing.

Ken just texted me a photo of the bread he baked. He has pronounced the required starter sponge "extremely gross", but is delighted with the results.
