553 – Rip A Dip

Phew, managed to sneak in a new installment amid the craziness. Next couple of weeks are going to see our day jobs getting busy plus our wedding anniversary, so we may not have the next up until 2/25. We've got a neat thing planned for the end of the issue and are getting there slowly but surely.

Well, 2020, Thanks for that…

I feel a bit like an oracle. Remember how we decided to take this week off for, among other reasons, just “general stress relief“? Well, 2020 was not having any of that! I’m an oracle insofar as that if we didn’t plan to take this week off, we probably would have had to anyhow. I’m also an Oracle, capital O, insofar as the Ancient Greek tradition of those nutty ladies at Delphi prophesying the future, usually with a side helping of doom. Our cat is currently laid up at the animal hospital suffering from kidney failure and a persistent bacterial infection. She’s been there for a few days now while they get fluids and antibiotics into her and wait for culture results. Meanwhile I got the news this morning that my dad is laid up at the human ER, also with kidney issues. In both cases, Dawn and I would like to send this message to 2020: thanks but no thanks, could you not? Anyhow, positive thoughts in both cases are certainly welcome. So much for the stress relief, but at least we were able to focus entirely on the emergencies at hand.
