Conavirus......

[jp1]

SO and I both tested negative again today. And he still feels perfectly fine. I, on the other hand, feel that he needs to go back to work. He’s been binge watching Hill Street Blues all week. Every 40 minutes or so I’ve heard the theme song blaring from the tv in the living room, interspersed with Renko shouting ‘freeze, dog breath!’ Over and over all day long. This afternoon I asked how far in he was and he said ‘end of season 2’ (of 8)…. Calgon, take me away. (If the streaming service included ads from the day I’m sure that would be one of them)

Funny aside. The cats are still thrown off their routine with him around all day. Normally they spend their afternoons taking vitamin D naps in my office, completely ignoring me as I come and go. They are still doing that but every time they hear SO moving around they jump up and run downstairs to see what’s going on. Then five minutes later they wander back to the office and crash again.

DH and I got our second booster last night.

Just curious if you are having any side-effects?

Now I wonder if I shouldn’t slip in a second booster before my next gathering with Iris folks where we will ride around for one day in a bus, and have meetings and dinners. This time mask are not required on the bus I believe. I could be wrong about that. Will have to check rules.

Today, my main firefighting partner has covid, my life-partner has 2 kids in her 4th-grade classroom out with covid though she has miraculously still dodged the bullet, her own son has covid and it is final-exam week at college for him, my daughter's partner's mom/dad have covid (and Dad just had a stroke), and my niece has covid.

So I guess covid must be over.

Hope everyone gets through their illnesses without any complications, bae.

I felt a bit achy yesterday, but a couple of advil at noon and at bedtime helped. I feel fine today. I kind of expected it because I had similar reactions to my second Shingrex vax a few years ago and after the 2nd Pfizer COVID vax and the 1st booster. No side effects for DH.

Just read that Advil (NSAID) raises blood pressure. I never would have thought that???

If you obsessively test with unreliable tests you can find it. It's the equivalent of if you build it they will come.

this is of course another misinformation from the usual source of misinformation. False positives from self-tests are rare, false negatives not so rare unfortunately.
