Brazil

 About 4.5 hours of sleep. 


Dirty laundry all over the internet? Dance your fingers right over to Amazon?
Laundry baskets full
and more importantly falling apart
Order new ones
whether I need or not

Going back to bed would have been good and possible, but at a certain point light and movement overtake somnolence and then just eat breakfast and see how much one can get done in long purple bathrobe by email and twitter on cellphone.


Then try not to cringe about how much involves different retail options with the same no health insurance labor practices.


And is it a good idea or not, before bed to watch CNN news clip about desperate COVID mess in Brazil? Populist leader + magical thinking = COVID disaster.


Not that I plan to give up masking anytime soon anyway, even before info multiple directions that infection rates in King County are ticking up even before spring break and Easter.


The Fam WILL gather on Easter. There will be some sort of festive food involved, not a full meal. Still any trip involving food counts as an essential transit trip though I am SO glad that drivers now have plexiglas barriers to cut down exposure risks. FINALLY they also qualify for vaccines if they don't already qualify for some other reason. I hope the weather is good. I am the only one not fully vaccinated. Sister and I decided situation is sufficiently podlike that her apt can be a backup location, and finding a suitable outdoor location that works for everyone's mobility issues is non-trivial.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
