My wife and I eloped - and I mean for real on a whim got married eloped. We were visiting Chicago to go to an episode of Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me and decided when we were there we should just get married. Went and bought a suit, two rings, a wedding like dress and a bouquet of flowers and got married at the Cook County Courthouse on a Saturday morning.
The people in the city were amazing, we spent the day going to museums, going up the Sears tower, having brunch etc and everywhere we went people wanted to take our picture for us. We have hundreds of them on our phones.
We ended the night at a bar on the 95th floor of the Hancock tower and it was truly incredible. We were also allowed to jump the 90 minute wait line.

Yet another Covid silver lining. I had this horrible throat infection for the past couple days. Normally I would go to the Dr and get antibiotics and be done with it. What with Covid protocols, one doesn't just go to the Dr. One has to have a very good reason, just to get in the door of the clinic. And then there is the likelihood of being sent off for testing. Not wanting to mess with any of that, I chose to ride it out. I figured that, no matter how uncomfortable I was, if the infection was life-threatening it would produce a fever. It did not. And the worst of it appears to have passed.

As long as you can isolate, no need for you. However, if your wife wants to go out, both of you should probably be tested.

From George Takei: I want to see Pantsuit Minnie go on a date with the Green M&M in sensible flats just to see Tucker Carlson lose the last of his sanity on air.

I've been sucking eggs while you all were killing it, then the opposite happens. This time, it was totally based on the first word.

As we await first hand information on testing options, I am already being blamed in case my wife can't go to that meeting tomorrow.
