I've been optimistic at every turn in the pandemic, and basically been proven wrong at every turn, but the news out of South Africa today is that Omicron cases are falling. It hasn't even been a month since identification and they're on the other side of it. Maybe it's a blip, but hopefully it's a harbinger.

My wife and I got in an argument about what to do for Christmas last night. I basically said, "Life isn't risk free." And she basically said, "Fuck you I don't want to accidentally kill our parents." Good points, all!

One of these days by pure chance my rosy prediction is going to come true.
