Huh... I didn't know that. [link]

Started watching Leverage a while back and just got here.

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

I may well be canceling my vacation for next month.

Bummer.

Our wings are not tired.

Email I just got from my doctor, who generally is on top of stuff and emails routinely. Poor guy is just so angry and burnt out from having to deal with idiots. Not his patients, but idiots at large.

I am proud that most of you have been following my recommendations over the past 18 months. I encourage all of you to continue wearing N95 masks or double masking.

Because of the current COVID variant storm surge, I am strongly advising the following:
Everyone should be fully vaccinated. Please limit your exposure to public places unless absolutely necessary.
For those of you fully vaccinated with a low spike antibody level and other conditions that make you immunocompromised, you are now eligible for a third vaccine ( booster).

Please call different pharmacies to locate where the vaccine is available and find out if a note from me is required.

As I have always emphasized MASKS, MASKS, MASKS.

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

Timelies all!

If I think about the vaccine and mask-deniers, it just makes me angry.

Work is being A Lot so I'm going to focus on a positive, like the engineer who brought their very fluffy cat to our video call this afternoon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In a late afternoon meeting today, my colleague's son came into frame about the same time as my cat. I guess it was time for attention!

So I'm now a week out from my last risky event and I hope that means I dodged a bullet....

There you go! JZ included one of our guinea pigs in her most recent Zoom to wide acclaim.

Matilda's friend Amelia is visiting, and they're laughing in Matilda's room! (Amelia was one of her close friends who also did not get into SotA and she's been in a pretty heavy depression for most of the year. This is the first time she's been over since before lockdown.)

In the last couple weeks Matilda has seen Mia, Iris, Anya, MI, Ruby, Savannah and Amelia. Aside from her jewelry class she often went months only seeing two of her friends (Mia & Iris) over the last year and a half.

Useta-could.

Happy Left-Hander's Day!

We left handers are right thinkers.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

My last TV binge was the Leverage reboot, which was fun. (Do you call it a reboot if it has most of the same cast members and follows on from the first series?)

Brookline Nine Nine started its last season last night, so I'm going to have to savor the episodes like the last bottles of vintage wine.

Go Leftys! My left hand is a useless appendage, but I have a number of loved ones who are left hand enabled.

I haven't watched the 9-9 yet. Waiting until I can relax and give it the attention it deserves. Maybe watch the last episode first as prep.
