Then seriously, good for you, and yay preventative medicine

I'm sure your cat is proud

I grew up in one of the municipalities that Metra skips most of the time, my parents' street got plowed on Sunday afternoon

Parents were teachers in two different districts, that was fun

I remember like one snow day a year, but maybe some of them were extreme cold days instead

Also the suburbs are weak and foolish; everyone drives but there are fewer snowplows

Oh you sweet summer child

Now everyone whose job it is to raise money for good causes has to fight donation fatigue and jaded cynicism, great job we've done here

Watching wholesome family movies about the true meaning of Giving Tuesday

Today it was 10 from 6 orgs

But since when is Countdown to Giving Tuesday a thing? That started last week!

Looks like a truck commercial

:(

(but get a flu shot anyway, any practice your immune system gets will help it fight the real thing)

No seriously those were the worst parts of my walk commute this morning
