After not even getting the sniffles during the first three and a half years of the pandemic, I’ve now got Covid–for the second time in eight months. Both times were on trips in crowded situations. (First on a cruise in September and last week during a vacation in Las Vegas.)
While I’m doing much, much better now, I’m behind on deadlines so I’m re-running some Last Kiss gags while I catch up. I expect to be back with new gags in about a week.
