Good night, friends.

[bk]

Before I truly go, I found this list of symptoms of the new COVID JN.1 variant which is rampaging across the U.S.

The symptoms of JN.1 appear to be similar to those caused by other strains, which include:

Sore throat

Congestion

Runny nose

Cough

Fatigue

Headache

Muscle aches

Fever or chills

Loss of sense of taste or smell

Let's see - of this list I can say a bit of congestion but that absolutely could be allergies. Runny nose - nothing terrible and also could be allergies. Cough. Absolutely, going on for nine days now.

Fatigue. Maybe a bit.

Headache - not really.

Muscle aches - yes, just a bit as of today.

Don't feel like I have fever or chills.

I want to watch Maestro. And yet.

I have most of that list, except cough and fever or chills. But I tested negative yesterday. I think it’s cedar pollen coming in.

Started reading a medieval novel called The Book of the City of Ladies. Divine representations of Justice, Reason and Rectitude tell the author, Christine de Pizan, to build a city for women and to build up the image of women in society.

It’s from the 14th century and the premise is fascinating. The writing is a little stiff, sort of like Pilgrim’s Progress. I can only take it in small doses.

Colorado is keeping Trump from appearing on the ballot. Yay!

HALLE-FREAKIN'-LOOYA!!

[George]

Sadly, it's not a completely done deal.  I found this article (just one of many):

Colorado Supreme Court kicks Trump off the state's 2024 primary ballot for violating the U.S. Constitution

His passion is actually Shakespeare.

I was fortunate to see him as Hamlet and as Macbeth in Los Angeles. He was fantastic.

That's really cool, Iris!

[George]

Sending good health and holiday cheer vibes to all!

❤️

And to you, too!!

[George]

That's awful, DR Ron Pulliam.

I can smell and taste now, however.   

Whew! 

[George]

This is hanging outside a house in my neighborhood. I'd estimate it to be about 20 feet tall.

Wow!  Very nice!

[John G.]

Good night, all.

[Rodzinski]

I, too, have been a little under the weather of late. I think I got something from the kids or their classmates. A bit of chest congestion that is the worst overnight. But by day, not too bad.

Anyway, health vibes to all in need.

[vixmom]

I wonder if by tomorrow morning DR vixbux will be a PowerBall millionairess.

I doubt it. I didn’t buy a ticket

[vixmom]

I had Covid but didn’t lose my senses of smell or  taste

[vixmom]

But I was achy and  completely fatigued

[vixmom]

The Neil Gaiman reading was wonderful

[vixmom]

Before he came out a woman came out who explaine$ that Charles Dickens had done readings of A Christmas Carol in the US and England,

[Rodzinski]

I did lose my sense of artistic taste when I had Covid.

[vixmom]

Rather than reading the  published he write a version more suited for a stage reading, removing some descriptions etc.

The script Dickens used is in the possession of the New York library, and it was that script that Neil Gaiman used

[vixmom]

Today was also exactly 180 years from the date of original publication

Gratuitous Post #202!!

That's really cool!

I also found his telling very moving.  The audience was definitely invested.

This is @ story most of us know inside and out , there are no surprises

[vixmom]

But the audience was laughing at the jokes , and you coukd have heard a pin drop except for some sniffles when Tiny Tim died.

I admit I teared up.

[vixmom]

And the entire tire audience burst into applause and cheers at the line. “ who did NOT die”

[vixmom]

I am so glad I went

[vixmom]

I also bought  this poster

[vixmom]

Anyway it’s very late
