In other surprising news, New England beat Baltimore last night.... That's helpful to us. Maybe

I don't know who the old timers are (except Connery) but I don't care for Daniel Craig too much.... He's on the same level as Jason Statham for me, just blah.

Because, I get about 3 games max a year where I get to be home and sit down for a game on the couch. Also, because I'm a fan and with 34 seconds left, I was pretty pumped. Just don't expect the Hail Mary to work all too often.

This one hurts

I def don't need another jersey, but if China makes a cheap one, I'll probably buy 😂😂

Of course, I always had a strong work ethic, I took that into the Navy with me. Somewhere in the last 5-10 years something changed, not sure if medicine did it, I still work hard and to the best of my abilities, but the days of bragging and one upping friends about working more hours per week are over lol. Not everyone has that ability and I understand that; maybe I've gone soft in my advanced age 😂

I'll get it too most likely, I heard rumblings that medical personnel will be the first to get them.... We'll see about that. With travel and all it may end up being a new requirement. I honestly just want to get back down to Africa and unplug as soon as I can, but they're pretty strict with immunizations.

The feeling like crap is a normal body response to most vaccines, I particularly get this prodrome of symptoms with most influenza shots each year. The rest is definitley concerning, we had a small discussion up thread about this, many employers/schools/etc may be able to not allow you to work or attend without getting one. This country is ripped in half and I don't see how this is going to go over well.

To keep my job I will have to. If it wasn't forced on me, I still probably would though. I have been getting the flu shot yearly and when I'm of age I'll get the pneumonia vaccines. I do believe in vaccinations, especially seeing how the 3rd world is doing every year. I just want people to know the limitations of vaccinations is all. I hear so much that this is going to solve the issue and that just simply isn't the case.

I think you'll see a fair amount of people that will absolutley not go near this.

Work/life balance is important, it's more important than salary in most cases, I leave a bunch on the table to fulfill my life goals

Probably, this isn't going anywhere it's a new virus that we'll deal with, no biggie there.... Just getting over the hump now.

I'll trade houses.... Along with the mortgage payments 😁

Where I work they replaced all the lights with traffic circles, no idea why. Where I live, I need a snowmobile to get home

I was being sarcastic, poorly so. We have a bunch of traffic circles in town and I swear that no one knows how to properly use them.

You shouldn't be allowed to enter a traffic circle if your IQ is less than 50

This is a form of social media 😎, about the only one I have. My life has gotten significantly better since deleting any other accounts I had back in March. I use What's app to talk to my kiddos in Africa, and then I spend wayyyy too much time on here 😜

That explains why some of them were so Onry, I think the one tried eating my hand 😂

Sure, it's a guard over the face, much like a sneeze guard at a salad bar helps, but maybe that spare boogie makes it in to the mashed potatoes 😁 I've never refuted masks, they help, they're easy, but they're not a total solution. So many people in my circle have said that if we all wore masks since day 1 then this would be over by now, I just can't get there. Hell, I even agreed with keeping big gatherings down, concerts, etc. Much like Sweden still did. I am having a hard time with all the other little things that are simply window dressing. 8 months in, it seems longer.....here's hoping with fingers and toes crossed that by summer we can start getting back towards a more normal life.

This place is so cool!

The increasing psych that I'm seeing specifically in practice are relating to the socio/socioeconomic ramifications of this all. Many parents can't handle dealing with childcare/work/economic issues, especially with schools not having students and parents having to put in so much extra. The pediatric psych cases have grown exponentially from my own little hospital alone, the separation of growing children, lack of social circles, etc; these are very very difficult during adolescence. Dementia is typically genetic, alcohol and drug use and some other disease processes can cause it, prolonged metabolic encephalopathy can cause the brain to essentially not work as well. Prolonged psychiatric issues can also lead to memory loss; I may be unaware, but I'm not sure of any of the coronavirus/influenza or other similar viral families causing early dementia. With your last point, Covid is 100% affecting those with mental health issues, but it's the Covid response and surrounding issues that are impacting these people; to this point we're still very very split on it as a country, very sad to see. I empathize with those that are affected

Enjoying the warm air and the beautiful Scenery, while the world worries about crap, I'll keep living until I die.

Ummm no, that's hogwash. Most of the mental illness cases are here and now, an inordinate increase in cases as well as mental health inpatient visits and suicide attempts and completions.... All thanks to Covid. This is especially concerning to me in pediatric cases that have reached a paramount number in recent months. Maybe these people are being singled out by the lunatics who are so Covid crazy they need mental help because they had the virus. Talk about a serious divide in the country.
