    Thanks.....pretty shitty, but I've felt alot worse too.... Overall pretty weird, especially the ebb/flow / change of symptoms. Started with brutal cough just the first night (that I thought was pollen allergies as I slept with the windows open that night and wind was blowing).... then morphed from there
    The headache, lethargy and "brain fog" has been the constant. Now I know what people mean by that..... menial tasks feel like monumental ones, and I've been in a constant state of "DUHHHHH" (yes, even more than usual).... but feeling a bit better and got in the ocean today for a bit (slept 11 hrs the past 2 nights).

    but other than that I'm ok... if I didnt have a conscience I wouldnt have gotten tested and powered through work.. (gave up 2 shifts at my second gig.... boat fuel $ :confused:

    ftr, I had the Pfizer vax last year but never got a booster shot

    Are the symptoms bad? Or is it just the constant annoyance?

    Mostly the latter.... but one thing that sucks is the up and down. Felt pretty good monday.... went surfing for a bit, then had a couple of beers that evening to fall asleep.

    Then felt like ass again yesterday, and still lethargic today (like I have a hangover) Still tested positive yesterday (I wanted to go to the grocery store, so I used my other test first)... been a week now and missing some work $

    Sorry, stinky. I had to suffocate all of your family animals in a trash bag. Maybe you should take Covid more seriously.

    If you suffocated the fish in a trash bag, you have alot of patience....

    saw these guys a couple of times when I was in college. The one jangle-pop band from Athens that inexplicably never got famous.

    We went to a great concert at the Bridgeport Amphitheater last night. George Thorogood & the Destroyers opened up. They still can rock it pretty good.

    Sammy Hagar & the Circle were the main act. Sammy, Michael Anthony, and Jason Bonham were there. Not sure who played lead, but he was excellent. Basically a Van Halen concert. Really good time.

    Just saw Jonathan Richman. Definitely not gonna be everyone’s cup of tea, but very entertaining. Kind of a folk-punk-stand up mashup.

    “Some of the songs presented might be in different languages; this is not to be esoteric or clever, it’s because the different languages help me express different feelings sometimes. One last thing, my idea of a good show has nothing to do with applause. It’s about if all the songs I sang that night were ones that I felt.” – Jonathan Richman

    run lyric subtitles across the lip of the stage apron...

    Unfortunately, a Brooklyn venue has cancelled its upcoming John Hinckley concert. Now we'll never know the genius inside.

    I haven’t been feeling good since mid week. Started last sunday with a horrible taste. By Wednesday I had a sore throat, congested , fever , and sinuses on fuckin fire. Still had to work, luckily all my jobs were vacant. Finally Saturday I said no more, I’m staying home. Fever broke last night, but still congested, and a bit lethargic…. Covid test… negative. Would have sworn I had it. Maybe I waited too long for the test(5 days). Warped part of me was hoping I got it over with.

    You may have waited too long for the test but it doesn't matter much as long as you're feeling better. I saw something a few days ago that said the Omicron variant provides little or no immunity going forward so if that's what you had there's no getting it "over with."

    Going to see Yes tonight. Wifey spotted they were on locally and there were a few tickets left, plus granted a permission slip. Only Steve Howe left from the classic line ups with Alan White's recent passing, but Geoff Downes also there. Doing Close to the Edge in full I think.

    It’s strange. The girl next door, tested positive. Almost identical symptoms, time frame etc. I bought the box with 2 tests, so I’ll do it again before i go back to work Wednesday. Really would suck if it provides no immunity.
