San Diego Zoo Safari Park Gorilla (Taken 6.28.2020) |
It was such an amazing day. The weather was perfect. Last night while Darren and I were in the speakeasy, I suggested a Saturday BBQ, so he made it happen with a spread of grilled vegetables, chicken, and hot links. My sister dropped by so it's nice we got the patio table last summer from my Buy Nothing group that is like 9 feet long so we can distance. Our friends also gave us their spare TV so we set it up in the studio window so we could watch the game.
Once the sun was down and my sister was long gone, I was glad we stayed home because the beaches looked crazy crowded and dangerous surf conditions. We'll get outta the house one of these days, but this weekend is likely not it. The COVID numbers in California seem to be plateauing, but they're still exceptionally high. People in LA are not only being told to stay home and avoid grocery stores, but people who work outside of their home and live in mixed households are being urged to wear masks at home, too. It is definitely not a good time to be raging in public or dining at these asshole 'protest' restaurants. Stay safe out there.
- COVID-19:
- This article makes me so mad. If we can all get emergency alerts on our phones, why can't we pre-register for vaccines online and get a text alert if one of these hospitals or clinics finds themselves in a situation where they have extra vaccines? I would literally go any time of day or night to get it but I'm pretty much last on the list of tiers to get vaccinated. I'll be lucky if I even get one by fall.
Thousands of Covid-19 vaccines wind up in the garbage because of fed, state guidelines. It's unclear how many doses have wound up in the trash because many hospitals aren't reporting these numbers for fear of retribution, a leading public health doctor said. - NBC News (1.15.2021) - Many in China are strikingly accepting of harsh virus controls.
