It’s Wednesday. It was another day of COVID and we’re both doing very well. Our symptoms have greatly reduced in severity after taking Paxlovid. The persistent coughing is gone and only a slight fever and snot remain. I’ve also been taking NyQuil at night to clear my head. It dries everything up which allows me to breathe, which then makes it so much easier to get a good night of sleep. And that’s really half the battle when dealing with any illness.

Okay, let’s address the monstrosity in the room. One of my readers made we aware of this abomination of a vehicle listed on Facebook’s Marketplace. Someone took a 1990 Corvette, stripped it down, and crudely added the grill, hood, and fenders from a late-sixties Firebird. Why? The world may never know the true motivation behind such a ridiculous creation. It has 51k miles, a 6-speed manual transmission, and is said to be in drivable condition. It’s located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and is currently listed for $8,495.00. Cringe.

It’s Tuesday. I’m now into day 3 of my COVID-19 journey and I’m doing okay. The girlfriend, not so much. She tested positive yesterday morning which we were both expecting. She started Paxlovid last night so hopefully her symptoms will begin to lessen soon.

I’ve been passing the time by doing some work but I’m finding that it’s difficult to concentrate. I’ve tried doing some gaming, but even that wasn’t very enjoyable. And food… food is not good. Apparently a side effect of the Paxlovid is a metallic taste in your mouth that totally ruins the taste of all food and drink—even jellybeans. Thankfully we only have to take it for five days.

So, it’s back to doing a whole lot of nothing. Again.
