OK, that was a weird

Posted on May 18, 2021 by A Dreamer

Saw my first unmasked face out in the wild today. OK, technically inside in the wild. And it was not who I expected it to be. I would have bet money it would be a douchy white dudebro, but no, … Continue reading →

Just to prove I’m not *all* doom & gloom

Posted on May 17, 2021 by A Dreamer

I hit up the Hallmark store yesterday for an “I love me/got my second shot” trip. OK, really just needed some notecards, but decided to treat myself a bit. New Yankee Candle, a “pencil case” that will actually be a … Continue reading →

48 hours post Pfizer shot #2

Posted on May 16, 2021 by A Dreamer

And…I’m great. Still feel it a bit at the injection site if I raise my left arm above my head, but other than that, really no after-effects it seems. Stayed up late and watched the Padres whomp up on the … Continue reading →

Day after Pfizer shot #2

Posted on May 15, 2021 by A Dreamer

And frankly, I feel fantastic. Had a big lunch yesterday, napped for a couple hours (I only got 2 hours of sleep Thursday night so the nap was probably not vaccine related,) watched some TV, stayed up kinda late, slept … Continue reading →

Well, Virginia has given up

Posted on May 14, 2021 by A Dreamer

36% of the state’s population is fully vaccinated. 55% haven’t gotten a single shot yet. (My county is doing a little better – but still 47% with no first shot.) So of course, the Governor is dropping mask mandates, effective … Continue reading →

IT’S VACCINATION DAY, BITCHES!!

Posted on May 14, 2021 by A Dreamer

And I got a whopping 2 hours of sleep last night, so I’m very happy I am not trying to go back to work after my appointment. And everyone is mad at the CDC… May I gently suggest your anger … Continue reading →

Tech is weird.

Posted on May 12, 2021 by A Dreamer

OK, need everyone to vax up so we can be done with this…

Posted on May 9, 2021 by A Dreamer

I hollered at someone in Starbucks this morning. Jerk didn’t put on his mask until he was already inside – which I was prepared to write off as a moment of absent mindedness. Then took it back off 3 feet … Continue reading →

What will “The After” look like?

Posted on May 8, 2021 by A Dreamer

Been thinking a lot about what things will be like post-pandemic, especially with my second shot just next week. I don’t think things will ever fully look like they did before – especially with reports that herd immunity through vaccination … Continue reading →

Shiny, Happy Saturday to you

Posted on May 8, 2021 by A Dreamer

Don’t know what it’s like where you are, but we’re having a deceptively sunny day – we *might* hit 60 today, and we won’t see the 70s until next weekend. *sob* I may have put all the plant starts out … Continue reading →
