There’s a joke in here somewhere about how time loses all meaning in the age of Covid but it’s too late for me to think of it. Anyhow enjoy…
My co-worker observed that the two masks laying on my desk at work looked like a bra and she wasn’t wrong. 😉
It’s such a tough time to be alive. Something that seems like it should be straight forward – buying N95-style masks because you want better protection against Omicron – could have all sorts of issues with sub-standard quality, even if purchased from legitimate retailers. Or the conflicting information that’s out there – for example, if […]
I’m not much of a New Year’s Resolution guy (“I’m going to lose weight this year!” Pandemic continues. “Shit!”) but always good to take account of the things you’re grateful for at this time of year. Who knows – maybe this could become another annual post tradition? Anyhow… 1. My Family So fortunate to have […]
One of the hardest things about the pandemic is trying to keep up with the latest news/developments/theories (and the fact these are ever-changing gives a lot of fuel to anti-vaxxers which is a different discussion.)

Here’s hoping I’m not starting a new blog tradition and having to post it again at the end of 2022! 🙁 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8utfXo41Qg “Hell of […]
It’s been a tough end to the year. There are some fairly major changes happening at work that will affect myself and numerous other supervisors in the new year. One of those supervisors, a friend and mentor, died unexpectedly at the start of December – quite young but also getting very close to retirement, having […]
Not my usual “Saturday Snap” photo today but instead, a screen shot of someone on Reddit saying they had a good experience at my branch getting their booster shot and also picking up a box of rapid tests. So strange to hear stories from Ontario of people lining up at liquor stores or other weird […]
There’s lots of coverage of the “Great Resignation” triggered by the never-ending pandemic. CNN has provided more insight about how that is especially true among older people who are choosing early retirement instead of staying in crowded workplaces or just recognizing that when they die, no one’s going to say “I wish I worked more” […]
Hmm, could the ability to trust science and use logic vs. the ability to believe in conspiratorial fairy tales and misplaced authority be part of this?
