It be SPRING. I had no reaction to the vaccine at all, been 6 weeks.

You must have gotten yours about the same time I did.

Alas - more reasons are "popping up" that suggest we wasted our time.  Might want to ask for masks for Christmas...

A little ditty I got from my dear, late mother:

"Spring is sprung,

The grass is riz,

The leaves have come

Upon the triz.

I wonder where the flowers iz?"

Got my second vaccine dose yesterday morning at the Petco Park site (about two blocks from the storage yards for the SD Trolley). Had a good time chatting with the guy giving me the shot, as he was impressed that I knew what an anaphylactic reaction was. Side effects started off with a sore shoulder a few hours after the injection, and today I felt like I was fighting a viral infection (which, in effect, I was).

Also noted that progress is being made on the UCSD/UTC extension, with catenary looking complete on the extreme north end of the line and partially installed south of UCSD.
