Home from Covid-palooza

7 hours of sleep night before last


Good thing because I took the Light Rail plus bus home rolling luggage.


6 hours last night.


Cat is extravagantly happy to see me. Go cat.


Tonight I summoned enough energy to run my bedding through dryer and change sheets. Laundry room was completely empty so I should also have tackled the trip laundry. That did not happen.


Follow up call said at least 40 of the 500 in person at convention tested positive for COVID. That was before at least 5 people I spent varying amounts of time with told me today they also tested positive.


I have home tests that are hard for blind people to use. There are now also accessible version as long as providing a whole bunch of data and connecting by blue-tooth sounds fun. Morning sneezes no worse than average. Cough all the time cough no worse than average. I WILL continue to mask up and be cautious about hanging out indoors with anyone.


Thank you Eppley Airport: I was beginning to fear that postcards are now a last century technology. But I found a shop at the airport before security.

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...
