Honestly, I'm hoping that some of the mRNA technology that gave us this vaccine will lead to advances in diseases like Crohn's and other auto-immune diseases.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Good for you, Sheryl. You deserve every bit of that Me-Time.

(Ironically, and Teppy can tell me if I'm wrong, but I think sometimes, they use the meds that caused this vasculitis TO TREAT vasculitis.)
Because medications (and the human body) are freaking WEIRD. (I myself have an allergic reaction to one specific steroid, which I was taking...to stop an allergic reaction [to something else]. So, yeah. Shit is weird.)

It is so quiet on the board today that I have checked several times to see if I'm logged in.

I see you and you exist and you haven't slipped into blinvisibility nor "out of phase" in some technobabble episode of ST:TNG!

Today is my Friday this week so I’m just trying to get through it. Lots better than yesterday and back to back to back meetings, though!

Occasional Yard Guy is pretty much finished with the yard, though he has to come back to put in some new fence posts at some point. The before/after is astonishing (he took before and after pictures and is going to send them to Tim). He did an amazing job of clearing out all the invasive shit and debris and hauling it away.
Now, the letdown is that him cleaning out the yard DIDN'T automatically transform it into a lovely paradise with a lush green carpet of grass and twinkle lights on the fence and a big not-approved-by-Noise Design hammock in a stand. Apparently we have to do all that ourselves. We're going to need to throw down some grass seed (and now is a good time to do it, because cicadas do aerate the lawn really well) and put in a border of mulch along the fence and sort out what kind of yard accoutrements we want beyond the twinkle lights and hammock (and then obtain those yard accoutrements). But even so, now we have SUCH a good starting point.

Aaaaaargh. Why is my company’s time reporting site the WORST?? We used to have this old creaky version that wasn’t great, and they “upgraded” us to a new one in October and it’s AWFUL. I have to account for my time with about 20 different projects and categories, which would be time consuming enough, but it doesn’t let me sort by project, and when I go through and make sure they’re all next to each other it RE-SORTS them when I hit save!! It also won’t let you save until there’s some time recorded in each category, so unless you do every category of work on a Monday, you can’t enter your time day by day. I haaaaaaaate it.
