after much sleep my arm is now useable and I can stay awake. These vaccinations knock me out which makes me wonder how I would I cope with getting actual covid.

tho I think I may have had covid in the past six months, my memory is shot lately and that's a symptom of post viral covid.

I popped up to Northland at about 2 because I needed a couple of things. I expected it to be dead as usual on a weekday arvo. It was total bedlam. I guess a combo of the sales and the heat, neither of which had really registered with me.

I survived, but I'll be trying not to enter a shopping centre again between now and at least mid-Jan.

Why does everyone here have to dump shit on the US all the time? (and never any other countries)

At least you’re punching up and not down so that’s admirable I guess.

Are you originally from the United States?

On days like this I used to tell my kid it was an "all you can eat zooper doopers" day. 🙂

I'm being very unproductive at work today.

Apart from feeling under the weather got hooked playing the Google moon phase game for awhile.

I ate a few rice crackers and my mouth started burning… ? Alrighty then.

I’ve ordered some more seeds. Jack Be Little pumpkins, Tommy Toe cherry tomatoes and some cat grass seeds. Very cheap. I just wish the packets were a little smaller, I only have so many pots left.

The zucchini are growing a lot of adult leaves and already shaping up to be monsters. What have I done planting four of them… I only had 30cm pots as well. I still haven’t got the stakes and the pipes might not be tall enough.

nyt xword. I've read all those books. ...lol

Oh damn. I forgot to do the self watering water containers for the zucchinis.

Guess I’m poking those holes now. I might use the mini bottles because standard ones would take up too much room in the pots.

Edit: Nah I’ll just pull them in. It’ll give me time to sort all that out
