I wish every single anti-vaxxer on this planet could have watched a time lapse video of me this week. Am I fully back to normal? No, but I am not in the hospital. I do not feel on death's door. This is day three of me officially having COVID. I feel no worse than a bad cold or flu. I have been taking NyQuil, Tylenol, and Advil. I drank another 30 ounces of juice yesterday along with 64 ounces of water. One rockstar. I had Qdoba for dinner. I napped once. My throat is still sore, I have some aches. No loss of taste. No loss of smell that I have noticed. I am functional and moving. Even more than B has been this week. I honestly can't imagine B if they hadn't been vaccinated. I know I have a super immune system so my shit doesn't surprise me. If they hadn't been vaxxed, I truly don't think they would have survived. I would have probably made it, but would have been much worse for the wear. I expect to be testing negative on Saturday, and back to normal next week. I have a few more things to deal with this week but still have plenty of opportunity to rest.

I did some work yesterday but kept it light and slow. I am not pushing myself either. I am trying to rest and recuperate. I haven't left the house since coming home Sunday as is proper. Last night I thought C had met her match in A. There was a delivery of flowers and cereal. Turns out it was from B's mom. C just can't afford to do things like that but I know if she could she would. She did send me the apple cider which was really nice. Was really good too. 

Spent a good chunk of the day just talking with C. We played a couple of games together as well. I have never enjoyed playing co-op games with anyone. Heck, even when B and I played WoW together we struggled a bit. C and I played Portal 2 and discovered the greatest marriage counseling tool ever made. We cranked through levels like nothing. We felt the rhythm of where we needed to go, where to put our portals, and communicated like pros the whole time. B and I have reached a point where we can't move a piece of furniture in the house without arguing the whole time. Is what it is. 

Speaking of that, I got dragged in the middle of drama between B and our mutual friend. Both of them dumped on me yesterday. My advice to both of them was the same - either let go of what has happened and move forward or end the friendship. I read messages from both of them, heard each perspective, and concluded they are talking in circles because neither is budging on their opinion. If they don't let go, this will be the end of their friendship. Honestly it's a shame it's come to this, but they are both being stubborn. Neither wants to admit they're wrong, and neither is backing down on getting the other to apologize. Either end the circle talk or end the relationship. 

I have to teach today but only a half day class. I can do it. Will need a nap though. I can already feel that. There's my biggest problem. I feel "better" and try and do too much. Then I get weak and have to stop. So I need to monitor myself better and slow down a bit. Force a nap if I have to today. I must beat this by the end of the week. I may not be legend any more, but I can at least still be better than normal people. We all know, I sure as fuck ain't normal people.
