1. Kept my job, saved the family businesses once way and another. Yay. I guess. I get to work from home permanently now, but no raises nor vacation days in the forseeable future.

2. Family members, by blood, marriage, and choice, sleeping in every room that is not a kitchen nor bathroom. So please don't ask.

3. Nobody here has got covid yet, so maybe my [justified] agoraphobia was good for something after all.

4. Still very active in Science Fiction Fandom. Have been running LASFS meetings on Zoom every week, keeping that seminal SF club alive and some good friends still engaged with other humans. Totally worth it.

[HUGE HUG] I miss you guys!!

I miss you too, terribly.

Gonna come back here more often now?
