Joining the covid club

[tiggymalvern]

Just to confirm what we already know, that covid 19 is still out there and still being a major pain in the arse, we now have it. We successfully dodged it for four years, but no longer. If only we lived in one of those Asian countries where a lot of people decided after SARS that wearing masks in public was just A Good Idea.

I had no desire to run on myself the experiment of, 'I wonder what long time side effects this newly manufactured and very different virus might turn out to have in ten or twenty years' but apparently I don't get that choice.

Ugh, that sucks. I also do not want to see what long term effects Covid has, though I know I'll get it sooner or later.

I'm sure you know to get more rest than you think you need. Be a layabout for weeks if you can, instead of forcing yourself to do something because you're 'mostly over it'.

I know, I know! And I've seen the science stuff about how covid fucks with your muscles and you shouldn't try to use them for at least 6 weeks, which is really giving me the hump since it's screwing me over for a big chunk of the summer hiking season...
