    You should hear my dad cry about motorcycle helmet laws being unfair/unjust/something something freedom. And he's been to these accidents where people weren't wearing helmets so he knows what can happen firsthand.

    How do you think I know yé ye and hóng sè? Though eventually my kids and I started calling her Big-head Kailan. We acted out the Sun Fuzzies attacking her one day "Look Sun Fuzzies! OMG IT BURNS!!" Good times.

    So...who wants to help me with Mandarin? Because I have dug myself in deep in Chinese drama/music/book fandom (and some K-pop groups with Chinese members). I can understand some things if people are speaking, like lăoshī , gē ge , yé ye , jiě jie , dì di , hóng sè , numbers up to 3 - you...

    So yesterday's count was up to 17. On our island alone. That doesn't seem like much, but the numbers have been 0-2 for the state each day for a few weeks. Things have been reopening, like parks, beaches, and this week was also seating inside of restaurants. My office opened to the public 2...

    My psychiatrist wants me to try Ketamine for my depression. Everything I've read says it's for severe cases. That isn't me. But it would be nice not to feel like an empty hole for a while.

    I finished the 50 episodes. I cried through most of the final episodes. Noah thought I got some bad news. I told him it was this show's ending, and things leading up to it, that had me all emotional. He just nodded and went back to sketching. I get myself calmed down. I've got to go grab...

    I'd like to have the antibody test done. Back in late January/early February I came down with what my doctor said she thought was the flu. I had been vaccinated, but I know that's no guarantee. I had a fever around 101, sore throat, body aches, chest tightness, lower GI problems, and a cough...

    I definitely think we are going to see a rise among healthcare workers and others on the frontline especially in the hardest hit areas, like New York. They are living through the constant trauma of loss and struggling to get equipment that will help to ensure their safety. Some have taken to...

    I just realized I said I was reading the donghua. That's hard to do since it's like the Chinese version of anime. Duh.

    I've been streaming a Chinese drama called "The Untamed" (aka 陈情令; Chén Qíng Lìng). I thought I had issues when I was watching a lot of Kdrama. Oh no. That was just a drop in the bucket compared to my current obsession with this show. I stopped watching it after about 10 episodes so I could...

    I had to send a message out to my colleagues about this so they could help some of their housing clients. It, unfortunately, happens often with vulnerable populations even in more "normal" times. There is a surge being noticed now because more women are unable to come up with rent money.
