A 833-post collection

Saturday, Day 0, Crimbolio PLNs

Plague news: Four new cases, two of each. There's nineteen total active cases, fourteen of them are in hospital. Australia's at 90% first vax, 82% fully vaxxed. Queensland is lagging in the rear at 81% first vax, and 69% fully vaxxed.

We're making PLN's for the festive season. When or if I'm ferrying MeMum somewhere on the day. Also we shall be stocking up on supplies so I can minimise potential exposure to The Little Drummer Boy.

Once you've heard the Whiny Country Ballad Version by a bad impersonator of Willie Nelson, you will never be able to un-hear it -_-

Shopping for Crimbolio leaves scars.

I don't have a lot of budget this year because:

  • We owe Mr Tax Man
  • The water heater imploded
  • The yard needs a tactical nuke
  • The cat needs DENTAL WORK
  • And it all happens at once. Of firkin COURSE

I have officially run out of money I got in from my writing, so it's extra spare. At least if we're traveling to rellos we don't need to fret too hard about supplying noms. Just presents.

Probably won't be writing a lot today. Walking a lot, yes. Writing a lot nooooo...

...maybe.

I mean, I did accidentally write 3K+ in some fun fiction yesterday. The day is young and I get bored easily.

In the news:

  • Star of The Project comes out of hiding to praise the vaccine for saving him from the Plague
  • Millionaire who went to space with William Shatner died. It's not related to the space trip though
  • Woman hit it big on Crypto
  • Austria locking down the unvaxxed. It's for their own good
  • Stop Eating This Or You'll Get Cancer Episode 2 305 497...
  • Julian Assange allowed to marry his fiancee
  • "But you look so healthy" woman diagnosed with fatal lung cancer way too late. Proof that "haha girls" can be fatal
  • Lobster at Aldi for $29
  • Surge of funnelwebs
  • The wild weather shall continue

Story now. Shopping later. Maybe some fun fic in-between.

Queensland's at 80.5% first vax, 68.8% fully vaxxed. My fair sunshine state is the LAST ONE in the race to fully vax the population. ARGH...

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

Mayhem is over the reaction to his second jab, and heartily endorses the vax mandates. We need those things for public safety. Just like we need road rules, traffic lights, and handrails on walkways.

PUBLIC. SAFETY.

Doctors, Nurses, and the entire Service Industry NEEDS to have

That may take most of the day.

Otherwise, I post my story and then goof off for the day.

I have to be asleep by six to

Eeps.

I have woken at 2AM to discover Toasty was streaming -- Sigh. So I stayed up for Tale Foundry since I'd _just had my coffee... and now I'm done with my stream.

I am going to sleep soon so I can more easily transition from Trainee DM to Baby DM.

But first, apparently, we are enjoying a spa bath.

Thursday, Day 0, Recovery PLN

Plague news: One new case, an import. Twenty-nine total active cases with nineteen in hospital, and one in the ICU.

I'm still getting over the Lurgi, so my PLNs don't go much further than soup and Shandy and a lot of rest. I have about 200 words to go in my novel's words today so I'm fairly confident about my ability to get that done.

I may even start catching up with The Adventure Zone. I can hope.

Meanwhile, there's some news:

Sunday, Day 0, Day of Rest?

Plague news: Two new cases, one of each. Twenty total cases, fifteen in hospital.

There's potential for another lockdown in the wind, so I'm keeping an eye out for alerts regarding the same. We have nonsense to see us safely through whatever it is, so no panic buying for us.

Today, I will indulge myself a little bit on leftover cake, continue adding stats to mobs on the boards I've made. If I'm brave, I shall go on to do Stage One
