RIP Kelly Preston – I’ll never forget her in Jerry Maguire. Even though Kelly Preston played a meanie in that movie, she was still radiantly likable. What is it about feeling a fondness for people who share your name, even if you have never met them in person? Am I alone in this weird quirk?
Anyway, it’s “back to reality Monday.” I filed our taxes. I have a to-do list that’s a mile long, and this afternoon my son and I are giving blood. I can’t pretend that this is entirely altruistic (although I have frequently given blood throughout my life. I have A negative blood type, which is relatively rare). Truly though, like a lot of people these days, I am giving blood in hopes that they miraculously find coronavirus antibodies in my blood. Even if they do find the antibodies, I am not sure what that really means for me. Unfortunately, there are many people out there who have gotten infected more than once with COVID. I suppose that I would just love the false sense of security that antibodies would afford me, or perhaps some pride in a very productive and healthy immune system. Regardless, I’ll keep you posted.
I hope you all have a fabulous and serene start to your week. See you tomorrow!
