Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Happy birthday, esse!

Thanks to everyone who is coordinating help for Aimee. I definitely want to contribute.

I made it to Michigan yesterday evening! Everything went pretty smoothly, although my flight to Detroit was oversold, which was a fun way to ease back into flying.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

2nd test won’t get results until Wednesday

Have you continued to feel crappy in the afternoon?

Not as crappy, but yes. Also I’ve been taking acetaminophen and ibuprofen. I’m not taking any acetaminophen today to see if there is still a fever. I’ve been sleeping 11+ hours every night, even the weekend where I was in a recliner for 6+ hours all day.

Oddly current temp check was 96.6. Stupid body not bodying correctly.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Fingers crossed for mystery-illness-answer or just happy bounce-back-to-health, msbelle.

Yes, thanks for all those who are helping Aimee both virtually and boots on the ground.

Got in to work today and the internet was out as well as Outlook. Our phones have been out for weeks for some reason. Went to the bathroom and there was a bit of a flood situation. Isn't it great that I have to be in the office rather than comfortably working from home? Sheesh!

P.S. The internet issue has been fixed, so at least I am back here.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Holy shit you guys the Canadian border will be open to vaccinated travelers (and unvaccinated minors traveling with a vaccinated guardian) on August 9th.

I am shaking with relief, I was so prepared to never see my house again.

Coding and Sleeping

Ugh. My daughter's wedding is taking place in my parent's backyard. My parents want to everyone who is unvaccinated to wear masks. The groom's family is taking this very badly to the point of some relatives refusing to come. All of this has my daughter very upset. I don't have a solution which is making me feel like a big failure, though that aspect isn't very important.
