It turns out that the super rare NotCovid virus is still out there. Be safe, people.

Oh no, what are your symptoms at the moment?

My symptoms are that I'm back in the office. This was actually my wife's RAT. Her work made her provide a negative test before she headed back in. Still not sure if it's better to be sick together or not. I prefer to be left alone to sleep forever when I'm sick.

The last time we were both sick at the same time, the kids were super little and it was so hard to wrangle them while feeling like death that we needed to call a friend to come take them away. At least these days the kids can mostly look after themselves.

the new one has zero immunity grace period. Terrifying AF.
