Does the flu vax help with bird flu?
Sadly, it does not. Viruses are jerks.

Where did JZ work? I feel like I had some clinical placement dealings with them (UCSF?)
Correct! UCSF.
Not to be confused with USF (University of San Francisco) which is where Matilda was accepted.

oh, interesting thing that has changed. I work a decent number of conventions now, like 10-15 in the year. This is actually one of my busy stretches.
Last weekend: Farpoint Convention, a sci-fi/Star Trek con in Baltimore
This weekend: KatsuCon, an anime con in National Harbor which is DCish
Next Weekend: Dreamation, a rpg/board game convention is Morristown, NJ
Next Next Weekend: Cold Wars, a historical miniatures/gaming convention in Gettysburg, PA
Anyone going to any of those, let me know, we can do a meetup!

ltc was fever free all day yesterday, but today she has a slight fever again. She also coughed a lot last night. I’m the worst mother ever because I’m keeping her home one more day.

Hi CaBil! Sadly, I’m not really getting to conventions much these days. I’ll have to see what there is in the greater Detroit area.

Our wings are not tired.
First, let us celebrate this day when our beloved Buffistas Pix and Maria were born. Wishing you both an abundance of joy, this day and always.

She may think so, but this sounds sensible to me.

Happy Birthday to Pix!
Happy Birthday to Maria!
May you both have a happy day today and many more in the coming year.
We are snowed in but nowhere to go anyway, so it's all good. DH already shovelled the walk and sidewalk, yay! I will do the driveway (well, the parts that need doing) in a few.
Think I'll make some hot cocoa this morning. Seems right.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Yep snow. Mac still had PT this morning, just delayed an hour. I opted to not got out and shovel in my boot and getting out of the drive was a bit of a pain. The tires kept spinning and someone parked on the street where it blocked us being able to back out in one try. Still we prevailed and the rest of the drive in was clear.
Really not looking forward to clearing the sidewalks when we get back. Hoping a neighbor feels generous and does mine before we get back.
Hi CaBil nice to see you.

Happy Birthday Pix!
Happy Birthday Maria!
It's rainy and clammy cold here, so I have declared it Wear a Cozy Bathrobe to Work Day.
Hi CaBil, welcome back!
