geowenchWhoops, I did not mean to let more than a month go by between posts. But the world seems to be getting progressively more and more grim. There are two large COVID tents erected outside the ER at the Backwater hospital. Last time I looked, OK was 5th in the nation for COVID deaths. Many cases at the university including my work and E's students. I'm still coughing from that "sinus infection" over a month ago.
I did actually have an adventure last weekend though. Back when we thought we'd have whole summer of COVID lull, my best friend SO and I planned a long weekend in Santa Fe. Since we are both double vaxxed and careful, and we had a private AirBnB, we went ahead with it. She flew into the Amarillo airport, which is almost exactly halfway between my house and Santa Fe. So I picked her up Thursday afternoon and we arrived in Santa Fe that evening. We had a super cute 2 bdrm AirBnB complete with a private patio and hot tub. We went to the Georgia O'Keefe museum, but other than that, we mostly stayed in. She is an energy healer and did a couple of energy session on me. I don't know if I actually believe in it ... but I do feel better when works on me, even if it's just having somebody love me enough to take the time to try and help me. It was a pretty short visit - 2 days of travel and so only 2 full days actually in SF. Still we hadn't seen each other since 2018, and usually we make a point of getting together every year. It was so long because 2019 was Prague, and well, you know the rest!
So we have a new boss lady at work. She seems to want me to like her, which I find ... odd. Our first team meeting is tomorrow, and we'll see how that goes. I'm trying to give her the benefit of the doubt, but ... well I'm thinking more and more that I need to get off my fanny and start the job hunting process.
