Slightly Out of Step
Apr. 11th, 2021 02:01 pmThis past Thursday I had Dose Number One of the Moderna vaccine, which was a short drive north to Mill Valley. The jab itself was a bit painful but that (and the lingering soreness on my upper left arm) seemed to be the only bit of pain I felt once it started coursing through my body. I could tell about an hour afterwards that it was doing its job because I suddenly started feeling as if I'd had the crappiest night's sleep -- head a bit spinny, eyes slightly unfocused, but for the most part just feeling very tired. I was fine by the next day. Suffice to say I got zero work done that day.
Do I feel guilty about snagging an appointment outside of the city? Not really. It's me or someone else that gets it. It's really not about other people being luckier or unfair age limits or whatever...we're still at a point where the doses aren't as plentiful as they should be at this point. [Side note: f*** Tr*mp and his shitty-ass cabinet for dragging their asses.] The extra good news is that I'm automatically set up for Dose Number Two at the beginning of May -- same Bat time, same Bat channel. Woot!
Speaking of steps, we made up for our laziness and my wooziness by doing a LOT of walking over the last few days. About five miles' worth yesterday, walking down to Japantown for shopping and lunch, then about 3.75 miles today through the Lobos Creek walk and over to Clement for coffee and brunch. And now I'm doing laundry so I'm still moving despite not wanting to move anymore! Can't complain, though...I need this exercise considering I missed so much of it on previous days!
So what else...?
Getting close to the halfway point on the latest Diwa & Kaffi revision. Fixed a major important scene, which now reads SO much better. I think I have maybe one or two more scenes like that to fix, but other than that the rest is cosmetic. I'm hoping to have this done by early May, but the earlier the better. I need to get this out into the world ASAP!
Other than that, not too much else to report...hope everyone has a good week!
