I'd like to thank Coso for making me feel old. I'm 43.. I'm not dead! :P

As today seems full of internet nostalgia and such... if any of you ran into a punk kid calling herself Paladin Jones in the late 90s, I'm sorry for trying to evangelize you :P

I do not know how, but one of my emails got added to a GOP get out the vote list for Trump.

Buddy, are you ever barking up the wrong tree.

I am wondering if the way I am feeling is tied to my Covid vax last week.

Here's my logic. I've had bad and outsized reactions before to the shot, and it generally has left me sick. This time I got the pfizer shot, which was a first for me.

I've had some deep chest congestion, very mild, since I got the shot. It's come and gone since the day after, but its been back with a vengeance the last few days.

The body just does not seem to handle the shot well.

Good morning groovy souls!

I'm taking the day off from the gym today though I very much do not want to

Showing compassion to this body can be hard, but after wrestling with my decision for hours, I've finally decided to rest.

I do not feel well, my energy is very low, and the feeling of strain and being burnt is quite high. I feel like I'm on the cusp of being sick and do not want to make it worse

I am ok. I'm sharing this because sometimes the best way to make progress, is to stop and rest.

So Dad went to Urgent care about his back. It looks like his parkinson's is over straining his back.

The Doc gave him a muscle relaxer and we're hoping that's going to get him some relief. the pain started to creep up to his shoulder blade, across his back today.

I'm grateful he was able to get seen.

I have felt low energy and lethargic all day, to the point I was falling asleep on the couch earlier.

Gym was brutal today too.

CoSo? Just a caring reminder that you do not have to immerse yourself in the details of other people's trauma in order to be empathic and helpful to them.

Sometimes folks think they need to fully see and engage with traumatic content--but this can be a barrier to effective helping when the time for helping comes.

So please, know yourself and act accordingly.

This isn't to discourage folks from being aware and informed--but be discerning regarding the degree.

@LnzyHou @wolfwoman @AskTheDevil @Smccune55 I know Wolfwoman and have met her personally. She's the kind of soul that will drive 3 hours just to chat.

I also feel like I've gotten to know you pretty well. In my opinion you've only gotten better with time. I didn't know you then, but I know you now and it's a true privilege.

I can say the same about @Vozy There are many good boomers in the world!
