My ~~common warm~~ common cold is going away! I'm still coughing, but no sneezing or running nose. My appetite is also back to the usual, and I don't feel disgusted at passion fruit juice any more. (Seriously, passion fruit juice is delicious... unless your smelling is affected, then it becomes awful.)

I also caught a cold a few weeks ago for the first time since the pandemic started, negative PCR and everything. It was weird to be sick but not violently ill like when I had COVID, I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop and it just never happened. Hope you feel better soon!

Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you! Frankly, I'm already far better than when I wrote that, 19h ago.

(And now I can say that even a catoblepas wished me health!)

Laid in a hospital bed, post op. Sore but otherwise ok. TIL that they now glue you back together, I have no stitches.

I heard a story somewhere that super-glue was originaly design exactely for this purpose, to glue wounds shut.

I've spend way too much time at [email protected]. There's this thread where people are encouraged to generate an image based on their username and I've been spending hours making images for everyone. It's a ton of fun and I love the positive reactions I've gotten from everyone.
I don't recall having this much fun interacting with people on Lemmy before, it's just been a very positive experience. Wish stuff like this happens more often.

I've seen it, it's great!

Stuck in traffic (I'm not driving) reading and posting to Lemmy! Living the dream

Arrived! It wasn't to bad. Arguing with people on Lemmy really helps pass the driving time.

Half day to go and I survived this week! Have been exhausted but also satisified!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Aww yiss! That is the best way to end the work week - satisfied!

One more day of work and tonight we’ll go see Le Youth DJ set. I know nothing about their music so this should be fun.

Hurt my foot last Sunday on a fall hike, and missed any and all subsequent fall visits since then. My wife and daughter were looking forward to the next ones, so that sucks.
