I am very pleased, and hope the rest of us do at least as well, Bryan only had a very sore arm after his vaccination.  He did not have any other symptoms.

That's good to know.  From what I read, the reactions seems to be likened to a flu shot.  This is good to hear

I’m so sorry to hear about Rebecca Luker.  ALS is such a cruel disease.

Thank you to everyone who made nice comments about my story.  That trip was a defining experience for me.

I just discovered this on YouTube: one of my favorite songs ever and Rebecca. Heartbreaking.

Not me. It's too painful.

On the "lost letters" thread, I regret losing a letter I had received from Ned Rorem.

The snow continues apace, but it may not be as bad as they predicted. They have NOT called off the prediction for winds tonight of 60mph and temps dropping to below zero for Christmas Day.

Hmmm, I have been reading the arm hurts more than your average flu shot.  It sounds more like our Typhoid or Shingrix shots.  I think his arm hurt more than my worst flu shot.  Still, I will take a sore arm for a few days, even flu like symptoms, as long as I don't get covid.

Dealer has come and gone, picked up some packages, including the mono replacement Blu-ray for Psycho and two screeners, which surprised me - maybe we'll get some more - maybe some Netflix - the two we got don't interest me - Borat II and One Night in Miami.

At the end of every year I look forward to a couple weeks of R&R, but somehow little things often get in the way. This week has been hectic so far and I just want to crawl under a rock and tell everyone to go away. I know that part of it is Covid, knowing that many, many people would prefer to be celebrating with family and friends, but feel unable to do so. It's disheartening.

I stopped at Julie's today and picked up several take-out favorites for the next few days. There's nothing like comfort food! (I have ChocZero here, too.)

Speaking of comfort food, DR Elmore's Christmas dinner sounds very nice indeed.

For dinner, it was watermelon radish sandwiches with truffle goat cheese and latkes made with radishes, potatoes and apple. Then radish bread for dessert.
