Now I want to go to SLC and visit that bar. We went to my favorite local bar last week. Staff and patrons were mixed on mask wearing. Our waitress was one of the few (outside) wearing a mask. I tipped her extra because it is hot here and no doubt it was uncomfortable for her.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

I feel so bad for my DP. He has a sacroiliac... thing?... that is making it super painful to walk. Saw ortho Monday, got steroids to help with inflammation, but didn't do much good. Has Flexiril (sp?) now, but still not much help. Getting an MRI on Monday. The plan is PT, but they wanted some inflammation (presumably) relief first. Pain sucks.
Meanwhile, the car warranty "final" courtesy calls are coming twice a day. What is it with those? I mean, technically, I don't even own a car! Leave me alone, you scammers! Also, learn the definition of final.

Though it would be helpful if the inhaler could connect with the (replacement because my husband is a THIEF) bluetooth speaker and twice a day just yell "STEPH USE THE INHALER NOW!!!"
Right? Alien overlords would totally do that for you.

This is what I want to know. What are they hoping to gain? Are they going to try to talk you into an "extended warranty" and ask for CC info? Or if you "press 9 to be taken off this list", what does that gain them? Clearly you're not going to give them CC info for an extended warranty that you have no intention of buying. Is it really just CC info, or is there some sophisticated phone witchery that I don't know about that they can use if they can only get you to pick up...

That’s great news about your son and his GF, Laura!
I’m so happy to see more people getting vaccinated.

Who is Joss Whedon, anyway, and can anybody prove it?

That is a conspiracy theory I am ready to entertain

What I want to know is who is this Heather Horton and has she been living in a cave? Who looks at the last four years regarding Joss and goes "What a catch!"?

I have to say, I do not want my inhaler communicating with any device, thank you very much, so I am going to avoid downloading the creepy tracking app.
I was looking for a new electric toothbrush, and there were several with Bluetooth. What would an electric toothbrush even be communicating? How much tooth data is there?
I have a new genealogy client, so that's fun. And I've got an eye doctor appointment tomorrow, which means I'll finally be able to see again.

The CDC new guidance is pissing me off. Already two employees have popped by my office saying “so, no more masks, right?“. And one of those people is UNVACCINATED!!! So I explained it all, but I know this is happening everywhere. There is no good way, outside of New York State to know if someone is vaccinated or not.
