Monday I will be fully vaccinated. I’m looking forward to going out into the world maskless. I suspect that will be temporary based on what’s happening in other countries.
Thanks to the cocktail revolution of the 90s I fell in love with this genre of music.

What did you learn during the pandemic that you will apply to the next one? Let’s the say the next pandemic has a R0 of 3-7.
Today’s I’ll write show notes for this weekend’s Soundwave featuring a mix from Haiteku of We Only Share.
So weird that that Trump might be the spark that ignited a third party.
Back to working out. Forgot how potent Woke AF is. My ears itch.
My manager sent me a treat!

Kitties.
I’m bringing Fate Accelerated and dice with me to our Sunday family gathering. I don’t know if anyone will want to play but I want to be prepared to run a game at the drop of a hat, which Fate Accelerated excels at.
While I’m a supporter of apps with subscriptions I’m hitting my limit. I can’t subscribe to every app. I love Ulysses and will continue my subscription but part of me is tempted to purchase iA Writer once and be done with it.
I picked up a copy of The Black Panther Party: A Graphic Novel History at Underground Books today. Looking forward to reading it later this evening.
Mother’s Day
We’ve been celebrating Mother’s Day all weekend. Friday we went to Hawks Provisions and Public House for cocktails but stayed diner dinner. Yesterday we went to Napa Valley with friends and had wine at Castello di Amorosa and V. Sattui. Today we had brunch at Old Soul Co. and picked up some books at Underground Books. Visiting family shortly. Epic weekend.

Elon Musk’s starship is great marketing, even though it won’t be visiting any stars.
I re-read Bruce Sterling’s Heavy Weather. The book really holds up. A nation wracked by climate change and rampant viruses and a protagonist who wears a face mask through most of the novel. This graphic would have been perfect accompaniment.

We are launching an online book club and we’d love you to be part of it.

After getting my second dose of Moderna I prepared for the worst: fever, chills, body aches, etc. I suffered none of that. My shoulder where I got the shot is a little sore and I pretty much slept the entire day. We’ll see what day two brings.
I just got my second dose of Moderna. Hopefully there will be no ill effects. But even if there is, it beats the alternative.
