Got our first shots. My husband had what he terms the "usual response" to vaccination, which is a headache and fatigue that went away with a 2 hour nap. I only have the sore bicep. I've been strangely absent of any added symptoms with any vaccination I've gotten; I don't know if I'm just lucky or what, but I won't question it.
I am AMAZED at the amount of tension that left me once I got my jab.
I only saw one nose while we were out. Small favors.
We've already begun scheduling the family gathering, because my brother also got his first jab today, as did his wife.
I JUST WANT TO SEE MY FAMILY DAMMIT. FOR REAL. NOT IN THE YARD WITH MASKS ON. I WANT TO PLAY A DAMNED BOARD GAME WITH THEM.
But we're also giving a shit... people don't get to come to our house without also being vaccinated (following CDC guidance)... thankfully any that we'd want over have already been getting theirs, so it's not going to be a struggle to get the people we want to see over here. We're planning our first dine-out dinner... in NOVEMBER, for our anniversary. We figure it will either be no issue by then, or we'll have another lockdown because of a variant.
Otherwise, numbers have clearly plateaued. I suspect that some people are collapsing what lockdown they were following as vaccination have rolled out. I very fully expect to start hearing about businesses starting to ignore capacity restrictions in the coming months.
