LMAO gently caress ME

so my husband and I drove 6 hours to Ohio for my niece’s birthday. His family neglects to mention that EVERYONE IN THE HOUSE IS SICK until AFTER we sat down for dinner and already hugged everyone. I started shaking, literally, which I didn’t know was a real thing but holy gently caress I was so angry. I went into the guest bedroom and put on my mask and started to cry. I’ve been so careful, stayed home for almost 2 years. Only to walk into a trap because I trusted these people. My husband came to check on me and I told him we were leaving NOW. He just kind of wordlessly nodded.

Now i’m sitting in the car and if they didn’t already think I was the loving crazy wife for making us wear half-face respirator last year they probably do now. Like I care, insane morons. gently caress I’ve never been so angry.

I get so lonely sometimes, I think I want to attempt a pod outside of my immediate family. I'm going to try to remember this every time I get the urge to hang out with someone. I'm sorry this happened to you. I can't imagine how I would feel, especially with a days drive still to go.

I really feel for you. really hope your husband doesn�t have weak knees about this with his siblings. extended families can be so challenging.

nothing you can really do now but quarantine and get tested in 3-4 days. keep us posted.

king county today. posting because school started today. mask mandate and 70+% vaxxed was enough to level off delta.

End of week two of school. our school had one positive student last week eating lunch in the cafeteria. no one was informed by the school because lunch is 14 minutes, lol. the Facebook moms found out though. thus far no in school spread on the school dash board. last weeks cafeteria thing should have showed up if there was transmission by now.

king county overall has had no change in the general trend two weeks in. this was the pattern last year too, school being open didn�t ever seem to correspond to changes in the larger community trends.

isn't it great that this is just going to become more prevelant because now instead of doing it because you're dumb and don't think about your actions for 5 seconds, you do it intentionally because it's political

it's going to be like the horror stories of "feeding people shellfish because you think they're lying about allergies", "I was sick and you didn't catch it and didn't even notice, germ theory is a lie"

along the lines of the stupid 15 min guideline, and in reference to my close covid encounter today, i told the school nurse that my para was working one on one with the almost certainly covid positive student. and i got asked questions like�

�for how long? longer than 15 min?�
�were they three feet apart?�

like�she�s working one on one with a covid positive student for half an hour at least and she�s asking me these obviously stupid loving questions any person with common sense can see through, so i snapped back and said�

�you need to tell her. if you don�t, i will.�

Thanks to everyone who offered goondolences. I�m thankful my husband was on the same page as me. He�s really upset that his family did this to us. He even called yesterday and asked if everyone was feeling ok because I was anxious about it and his sister reported everything was good. So, she loving lied.
