Self isolation, social distancing, sheltering in place, whatever else you call it
h2ojunkie replied to dr. b's topic in General Insanity
My wife was able to get her first vaccine shot today. She's an RN but works from home and still qualified for it right now. It's not going to change our behavior, but it is a little bit less of something to worry about. -
My wife has had some struggles with alcohol and she stopped drinking around February - March last year. I haven't had anything to drink since about then too because continuing to drink is really a dick move and doesn't help support her. I do miss having a cooking beer. I guess it isn't that bad since I didn't really drink that much to begin with. I don't judge anyone on their choice to drink. After not doing it for a while you can start to see how ingrained it is in our culture and that is kind of shocking.

Free demo, why not. What platform?

Didn't know there was a non-stick version for the instapot, cool.

I would guess to fix the GI bleed. Hope she recovers quickly. -

My wife's grandmother's brother passed away today. He had covid and was quite old, but i think that he had other issues as well. I've never met him so I can't say for sure. But that is the closest I've been to someone that died from covid. -
What did you get?

At least it's the actual teachers from the school teaching what they would have, probably in a different way. It's first grade so most of it is early learning to read and do math. -

My daughter's school was following the status of some measures the county is tracking for being able to have in person class. They had to go back to 100% distance learning like a week ago. So glad we had already committed to distance learning for the year so it didn't change anything for us. -

Ready to watch it tonight if the wife and I can stay up after the kids are in bed.

Oooh my turn for stupid family stories. My wife's side of the family wanted to get together for walk around the neighborhood to look at Halloween decorations. There are 4 families that are all about in the same like 5 square mile community, so I thought it would just be them but it ended up being ALL of them. My wife has 8 siblings and there are 8 grand children between them. We get to this fountain in an outdoor area first, all masked up (4 and 7 year old no less). The first SIL who had Covid (fairly mild case without any complications that I know about. Oh yeah, she is temporarily living with the grandparents) like a month ago shows up without a mask and her 2 & 4 year old do not have masks either. Grandparents and other younger kids show up without masks either. 2 other SIL's and family w/kids show up masked, one who is very strict with precautions because she had bone cancer as a kid so she doesn't want to risk anything. 12 masked and maybe 11 that aren't. Of those 11, 2 are freaking nurses! They had to go back to their cars to get their masks after my wife asked her dad if everyone was going to wear masks. I was ready to leave if they said no. Everyone got them and put them on with lame excuses about forgetting them in the car except for one sister and her husband. They had their dog and said they would walk in the back away from everyone...My wife was talking with them about 20 feet away asking them to put a mask on so I couldn't hear everything. They were so inconsiderate and selfish with their own family that they wouldn't wear a mask for a walk. They didn't even have ones so they had to borrow them from the covid sister who had a box of disposable ones. We started walking and I didn't look back at them much and it was dark, but I'm pretty sure they took them off. AYFKM, how hard is it to do this for your family? This is the first time the whole family has been together since like Christmas. My wife is pissed and is all worked up about the confrontation because that is not something she likes to do. -
Needed to chill out the other day after everyone was in bed and remembered about this album my older brother had when we were growing up.

King killer is great except for the distinct lack of third book. The second one was published almost 10 years ago...

I have pretty much listened to all of these on audio books, maybe a couple like The Wheel Of Time that I read the books though. The whole list is in the spoiler, but here are a couple links to a couple on goodreads. I may or may not still have a copy of all the audio books still. https://www.goodreads.com/author/list/119164.Andrew_Rowe (Weapons and Wielders Series, The War of Broken Mirrors Series, Arcane Ascension Series) https://www.goodreads.com/author/list/38550.Brandon_Sanderson?utf8=?&sort=popularity (Mistborn Series, The Stormlight Archive Series, The Reckoners Series) https://www.goodreads.com/series/185650-expeditionary-force https://www.goodreads.com/series/291662-lightbringer https://www.goodreads.com/series/45765-night-angel https://www.goodreads.com/series/43644-the-first-law https://www.goodreads.com/series/117100-red-rising-saga https://www.goodreads.com/series/131379-magic-2-0 https://www.goodreads.com/series/192821-cradle

That was our thought too, even though we are all working/schooling from home. Definitely hasn't been cold here ? Expecting 100+ temps again for the next three days. -

My daughter had a 99ish temp for a couple days. So my wife and her got tested (my wife only to show my daughter that it was no big deal) I think it too 2 or 3 days for the negative results. We have all had allergy/runny/stuffy noses for a couple of days. Just normal stuff though thankfully. -
Picked up Spelunky 2 and Torchlight 3. I suck at Spelunky so far and I only downloaded Torchlight today.
-
Downloaded spelunky 2 last night, might be able to play some tonight.
-
Spelunky 2 comes to stream in a week I'll probably pick it up. The first one was great.

Distance leading is tough for my daughter in first grade, she gets sooooo bored and just walks away from the computer. She drives my wife crazy talking to her all day because they are in the same room. My wife worked from home normally before and wants her empty house back. I don't blame her. -
