So, since @defcon, I'm starting to see new followers, so I guess it's time for a quick recap. Hi! I'm @bluknight. I run @dcskytalks with the help of a great group of talented individuals. Honestly, I'm probably the least talented of them. But don't hold that against them. 1/

Still glad I made it to the last @shmoocon, and got to see some of my favorite people (too many to list without running out of space) and seeing the Potters go all Oprah with the "Stargates for EVERYONE" bit (and I do love it. <3)

Paxlovid, day 3(ish). The taste is a thing, but isn't horrible. I find that a good shot of Malort makes it go away. Feeling relatively tolerable, but still taking it way easy.

Paxlovid, day 0

You've got a *VERY* unhappy customer here. What can be done to provide a satisfactory resolution here? And please don't say "we've emailed our escalations team, kindly wait 5 days for a response."

I'm sorry, #shmoocon -- I fucked it up. Tested positive for COVID this am.. two separate test batches, one of which I've been using daily since arriving in DC. Congestion came yesterday, sore throat overnight.

Home safe from @shmoocon. Funny, I didn't notice these fun moose facts on my way out of Denver or I would have asked Bruce and Heidi about having a Submooserine some yeah.

@MizzP_DK @DomVictoriaRage Congratulations, birthday neighbor. Unfortunately I'm not in a position to treat you right now, but I do wish you well.

Nobody showed at #LobbyconDCA, but I did have a drink with @Randominterrupt at ConcourseAConDCA. Travel safe, my friend.

@Lokana_Lighto You don't have to do that on my account. 🤣

@vxunderground That's hilarious. We all know you're actually a shill for the NSA. 🤣

No shade to @FlyFrontier here -- they've treated me generally decently, and I didn't read the carriage conditions before I booked (honestly, who does?) so I'll own up to this as my own fault and mistake, and make the best of it. If you're flying out of DCA today, hit me up!

And yes, I've already sent a DM with specific details.

That said, (mis-)quoting everyone's favorite Science Fiction first officer... "No COVID today. COVID tomorrow. There's always COVID tomorrow." Someone's got a have some damn perspective around here! Sooner or later.... Boom! COVID.
