Anyone in the south enjoying 80+ degree days? I don't live here, but holy poo poo it hit 81 in Mobile, AL today. In late December. There were children and Karen's bitching that the hotel pool was closed for the winter.

Mobile is far enough south that closing a pool in the winter kinda seems more like a management penny pinching thing, but the gulf is right there and not nearly as full of covid. Covid is no excuse to most southerners though. Also there was a pool chlorine shortage this past summer that I kinda doubt ever caught back up.

Salt water pools are the way to go anyhow.

Agree, almost nobody is wearing a mask anywhere down here. I look like a nutter for walking through the lobby with a kn95 on. But I'm also the rear end in a top hat for still traveling and hitting visits with both families over the last week.



All you can do is what you can do, in terms of keeping familial obligations without disowning them. I'm very ready to get back home to my bunker and waiting a week to cool off before I decide which relationships are worth keeping.

gently caress the holidays. I am not participating next year.

E: I blew off the holidays and feel fine about it. Just hanging with Frank and Beans.

I will feel fine about doing exactly that next year. I'm done traveling for family. I'm done owing them poo poo. They can come see me at my place, if they care, from here on out.

Right now I'm missing my dog bodi something hard. I am surrounded by loved and loving but complicated humans and I miss my dog. I pick him up from the doggie Hilton back home Sunday.

Sorry for making GBS threads up the CE thread, but I bet a few other lurkers are in similar boats.
