State of the Game

Well. My covid journey took a turn. My pregnant girlfriend ended up getting covid pneumonia. She was rushed to the hospital via ambulance after I took her Oxygen levels and they were quite low. She has been intubated for the last week, but they removed the ventilator today. We actually had a video chat and got to talk. Baby is doing great, too...

The nurses call her the rock star of the ICU.


The worst part has been being stuck home alone sick myself with no one to help me through it (dealing with her sickness). Today was a great news day, though.

Dude you have my best wishes and thoughts - I'm sorry things have been this tough, most genuinely. Get well to all three of you, and thinking of you guys :)

That's some good news there hope all three of you recover quickly with no long term issues.

I hope you all get better :)
Here's a relatively humoristic cat meme to make you feel better :

That is pretty tragic. And your analysis is spot on, why bother playing?!
Its one of the reasons (the other in my view is a large number of explorers of a certain type) that have skewed what Elite 'is' to the point where any danger is seen as the worst thing.

I mean, unless I was sleeping and had a cheese dream, Elites about building yourself up in an uncaring galaxy, where money flows from what you do and the choices you make.

Grumpy Nuke is grumpeh.

Anyway, on lighter news, pasties today with a nice apple coleslaw.
 
A new person starts at work tomorrow.
I desperately need to wear this as a mask and just walk in without saying a word.
If queried I'd explain that I like to commute as Phil Mitchell, it's normal.
Surely this day and age you can just announce that from now on you self identify as Phil Mitchell? Self identity seems to be everything now.... I was toying with the idea that gender identity isn't nearly far enough, and choosing to change species and self identify as a cat, thus allowing me to stay in bed on work days until 3pm....

Good morning fine tribe - you have been busy... the problem with missing forum days is the catching up to be done as I wouldn't want to miss any pearls of wisdom hidden amongst the stream of consciousness.... 😏

Just be who you want to be. [REDACTED] the rest.

And good morning Thread!
I've been up early keeping annoying appointments and am now catching up with the important things: tea and breakfast.
 
So, assuming no weather interruptions (shouldn't be), what do you fine fellows think will be the test match outcome?

I'm open to any suggestions, although I'm not open to Ender saying sport is crap or similar...!
Hmmm - England to lose a couple of quick wickets early on. Root to come in, and play well for a few hours, followed by a batting collapse after that.
I hope I am totally wrong. It's been a completely mad / entertaining test, and hope it will go right to the end of the day - I need something to entertain me while I 'work' :)
