Too bad you turned your back on us to become Captain of Lichtenstein. :poke:
Out of town on vacay, 6 to 7 hours from home. Run into someone at the bar who literally lives within walking distance of your house. ?

A little dusty in here right now...
Tact is the ability to step on a man's toes without messing up the shine on his shoes - Harry S Truman
Knowing we likely will now not have to quarantine for Christmas again this year.
My son had to go to the Doctor because he’s had an awful cough again of late and now he has a runny nose and even a low grade fever. He’s probably had 6 COVID tests this year but this is the first time we were really worried about him testing positive because the symptoms just felt different. He came back negative for multiple things so he must just have what we used to refer to as the crud.
Seeing CM Punk in old school (late '80s) Sting facepaint tonight on AEW Dynamite. He had the scorpion tights too.

I feel like I've had the crud for three days every two weeks since effing July. This kid better be worth it.

We kept my son home last week because he had the crud. We had him tested twice, negative results, so we concluded it was the crud. He usually gets a bad cold every winter so this was his for the season. Glad it is done before the weekend for Christmas and next week when we go see the in-laws.

If you never want to be sick again just go be a childcare teacher. They have to have bulletproof immune systems
My older son has Influenza A. Not much fever, but a lot of coughing and chest congestion. He's felt pretty crappy since Monday morning. The Flu is bad this year since the dominant strain (H3N2) wasn't covered in the vaccine.
We've had to cancel Christmas plans for the 3rd year in a row. He also had the flu 2 years ago and last year was COVID.

I think my system is slowly getting there. Each time it is a bit more mild, and I notice others having much worse symptoms. I basically am getting hit with a really mild cold over and over again, instead of a big one every once in a blue moon.

That big one though is a doozy. The first couple years after Paige was born gave me 2-3 bouts of something that was just awful.
If you have kids 8 years apart you’ll learn that your body doesn’t recognize some of it from the first time around. That’s been fun for the once a year sickness that puts me down for the count
Having read about all of the "crud" that's been going around I was just wondering, could this be the latest variant, soon to displace Omicron? 
Reading through this thread I do feel fortunate not to have had any illness during 2021...hope I can safely say that with just over a week to go until we flip the page over to 2022.
Both my wife and I did suffer from who-knows-what in October of 2019. This started in embarrassing fashion when boarding an airplane in the Cayman Islands, as we were about to head home. Tried to muffle it the best I could but my coughing fit lasted a good half hour which made me think they were going to kick me off the plane! But thankfully by the time we reached Fort Lauderdale the worst of my coughing went away, and I quickly started to feel pretty normal. Unfortunately, my wife caught whatever I had soon after we got back home, but her's was much worse with all the usual flu symptoms. This caused her to be bed-ridden for several days as she felt awful.
Again, this was October 2019 which was several months before the CoVid-19 outbreak here in the U.S. But to this day I wonder if we may have caught something similar, or possibly Co-Vid itself, while in Cayman.

It wasn’t Covid. My mom thinks the same thing about her illness around the same time. If you had Covid in Cayman in October and my mom had Covid in MN in Oct, they wouldn’t have only measured a cluster in Wuhan spreading out from there. It would have been all over the US instead of an original cluster in WA state.
..."they wouldn’t have only measured a cluster in Wuhan spreading out from there..."
I don't think we know that for certain, and in fact the Chinese have never admitted that the virus originated from the lab in Wuhan.
"...It would have been all over the US instead of an original cluster in WA state."
While the virus in the U.S. may have originated in WA state, it did spread very quickly across the rest of the country, killing thousands.
The Flu is bad this year since the dominant strain (H3N2) wasn't covered in the vaccine.
Oh Great
We’ve had the crud. I didn’t know so much snot could come out of a persons head! Thankfully I was fully recovered within a week. The hubby unfortunately has had a much rougher go of it than I with more severe symptoms and longer duration. Going to take yet another test to make sure we can go visit my family for the holiday, especially since my sister in law has just started chemotherapy for breast cancer.
I hope this is the last Christmas we have to put up with this shit….

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.
Christmas Story marathon.
Love the tradition. IIRC, my record is about 18 hours watched, of the 24 hours they do it. Average is about 12-13 hours.
It's completely idiotic and simplistic, but it's tradition, gol darnit.

I got the DVD as a gift many years ago. Still sealed, due to the marathon every year.

Some of you know the crazy blond St Cloud female fan...we have a tradition of MST3King the first showing of the marathon on the Tweeter. It's weird, because we adapt our comments to the times. No hold barred, topics that cannot be discussed on here, etc. Again, it's idiotic, but it's fun.

Mystery Science Theater 3000. Basically, a group of people run commentary, snarky, along with the movie. Poke holes in the plot, make fun of the entire movie. IIRC, MST3K is Minneapolis based.
MST3K, which funny, I don't really like that show, does that with the uber-bad movies. Not even B-Movies. Worse. Crazy StC fan and I have a love of "A Christmas Story" and decided to do it one year. Then figured, "let's make this OUR tradition." *shrug*

A Christmas story is great but watching it for 18 hrs straight ?

It wasn't 18 hours straight, it was 18 out of the 24 hours they showed it. During that stretch, it was 12 hours straight, though.

I have 4 kids ranging in age from 15 years to 22 months so we still get to experience all levels of Christmas. This year was extra special as I got 2 naps in!
First Christmas as a husband and father of 3. Hosted Christmas Eve at the house with my in-laws and my parents. And hosted Christmas Day with my folks and my sister’s family. The frig has plenty of leftovers of pork chops, chili and cheese cake!!!

Got my yearly Grasshopper Pie. If one is unfamiliar, look up the recipe. It's a Diabeetus Special, but man, is it good!
