1. I took my mom to get her second shot this week. Woot!
2. My healthcare provider sent an email around a few weeks ago about how they are working down the age groups in the 1A category. I was reminded how communication goes a long way in waiting. It's the unknown that leads to minds racing, etc.
3. My age group has apparently hit because they sent me an invite!
4. But because I have good friends, I am already in between shots 1 and 2. (Appointments opened up. They scheduled one for me as I was sleeping at the time when they texted/called/etc before they just said fuckit and scheduled me one on the thoughts that I could cancel if needed)
5. I finished the Amazon Race Season 7.
6. My team got further than I thought in March Madness.
7. My team is still in.
8. I made Ted Lasso cookies for a friend.
9. In case you were wondering if you could randomly message me and talk to me about Ted Lasso, the answer is always yes.




So I spend most of this rewatch vaguely remembering you all talking about lo those many years ago. Like John Vito and Jill and the broken Ox and such. I never watched, just words passing. And I remember you all had a lot of thoughts about Rob and Amber. And while I admire their game, I also finally realize that the Amazing Race is not something I'd like to do! The begging and pleading at every stage. I kind of just want to pass through as unobtrusively as possible. And the begging is just all out.

Anywho, so we were closing in on the finals. And Gretchen and Meredith were a hoot, but not strong enough to win. And Model/Pow has pissed me off to no end on both sides. And while I respected Rob and Amber's gamesmanship, the heisenbergian knowledge of the game changes the game play issue reared it's ugly head with me. I am still wishing that Survivor was based on your ability to stay alive without manipulating people. But people are always involved and people are messy. For example the people who produce Amazing race tell a sort of storyline with Rob and Amber that I will react to in one of two ways, but I will react. So I mostly wanted anyone but them (And POW/BeautyQueen) to win. And then when Joyce and Uchenna won and they were so happy and they were so so happy? TEARS. GIANT TEARS OF TEARFULNESS JOY. It was all worth it.
