From my school district's superintendent, for the first time in ever: "It is my pleasure to inform you that the District was informed today of NO individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19. Long may it last!" I cried.

Today I got the results of my vaccine response from my oncologist. Anything over 400 is great. 250 is okay. Mine was 16. They consider it “background noise.”
So just another friendly reminder that you, a healthy person, getting the vaccine can potentially save my life! 😘

One time I asked him about political courage, after he'd stood up to the Bush II White House. "Once you've gone to a state convention with Liz Taylor wearing a tiger-striped jumpsuit," he replied, "you're never afraid of anything again."
RIP John Warner, the white-haired patrician senator straight from central casting who bucked his party when he thought it was wrong and earned wide respect across the political spectrum for his independence and integrity.

The line to get into Whole Foods runs the perimeter of the parking lot. The woman in front of me just fired up her second joint. I’m wearing gloves like for a rectal exam and getting a contact high. Interesting times for sure
