    So they're starting to figure things out here as well. Presumably "Mark" will be a source on information, too. Eventually.

      Hey, you! 😸

      Yes, Mark will definitely have some... interesting input. Made all the more interesting by his own past history with Anthony. A tangled web they leave...

      Thank you for commenting! I hope you've been well 😺

      (edit hours later: that should say "weave", not leave. D'oh!)

        Well, I HAVE been reading (and enjoying), but haven't commented for a while. Stressful situations in RL, unfortunately the stress isn't going to go away any time soon. But I'll try to comment more.

          Thank you for taking the time out to comment when you have stuff going on! This year seems to be hard on a lot of people - I had COVID earlier this year (before vaccines became available) and it was terrible. 2021 isn't much better than 2020, it seems.

          Jeg håper ting blir bedre!

            Sorry to hear you caught it, and I hope you won't get any of the aftereffects that often seem to come with the disease.
            I myself have managed to avoid getting infected, and in fact got vaccinated in May, with the Pfizer vaccine. I breezed through that as well - no side effects barring slight soreness at the vaxxination site. My brother got vaxxinated at around the same time with the Moderna vaccine, but was flattened for that weekend by flu-like side effects.

              I actually am a COVID long-hauler and I still have some problems from it months later, like more intense chronic fatigue and neurological issues (my ADHD is the worst it's ever been, which I hear is a thing that can happen, and it's been like this since I had COVID so I think this is probably the new normal). It sucks. My roommate (Detergent on A03) had a less severe case of COVID (I had walking pneumonia) but she's also having long-term symptoms so between the two of us we have, like, .03 spoons, lol.

              I am glad to know you've been vaccinated and that you didn't have bad side effects.

                From what I've read about it, long Covid sounds very much Not Fun. I am really happy to have avoided getting the virus myself - I have generally good health, and rarely get sick, and then usually not very much so. I like to say that my immune system does its job efficiently, but is laid-back about it for the most part. (I have never had adverse effects to vaccinations, but I do have allergies. Not severe ones, fortunately.)
