#we all test pretty regularly and there haven't been any memos about an outbreak

Did another covid test today and while it was technically positive, the line was so faint that I couldn't see it until I shone my phone flashlight on it. So that's nice. I'm done with the paxlovid as of this morning so I hope I don't get the rebound effects. (And I'm still taking antibiotics for the strep infection. Really great Christmas presents)

I think I'm at that point that you get to when you're sick where you feel better enough to feel stir-crazy but aren't actually well enough to do anything about it without pushing yourself too hard. And I'd really like to be reasonably okay by the time work and rehearsals start up again in January so I'm staying home for Christmas and devoting most of my time to getting rest. But it's starting to get kind of boring tbh.

#my parents are planning to visit with my christmas presents when i'm a little better #which is nice i guess #i know i'm getting at least one fabulous pair of boots #also if my mother makes noises about how i should quit symphony chorus i will lose my shit #she's been muttering disapprovingly about how that's probably how i got covid #but also i think that's on me for not masking assiduously #we all test pretty regularly and there haven't been any memos about an outbreak #and the university library is probably at least equally disease-ridden #anyway i also kinda dragged my feet on getting boosted #because i didn't feel like i had time to be knocked flat for a day #so lol irony i fucked up
