Holy crap that was a long week.

I like it Pete, surprised sardines and a sad salisbury steak dinner...

I've got too much christmas knitting to take care of right now anyway... but I do appreciate that you thought of me.. is it perhaps because I keep posting such absurd things here?

Hey Alison, I thought of you when I saw these:




And I thought it was rad.

Another mecha thingy.



Description should come around sometime this week hopefully.

I believe the round of immunizations for the non-post-secondary-students born after 1970 will be in January. (I assume that's when I'll end up being covered; I doubt I'll be in town for the current round of vaccinations.)

(Also, concert binge tempting, timing unhelpful, apologies, etc.)

Jess, for those concerts, I will probably buy/pick up tickets this Friday or Saturday.

So... any more interested people have until Friday to tell me if they'd like to join Jess and me in them...

Come on, you know you wanna join us in a winter concert binge! ;)

Hey Alison - I would like to go to all of those shows. I won't even be working evenings and weekends by then! Ho-rah! I'm happy sitting anywhere at the Winspear. When are you getting tickets? Can I come with/give you money?

Makes sense. You just reminded me that I'll be getting a bunch of shots (flu and misc.) the end of this month.

hey Albert,
I have good news and bad news for you:

"Beginning Monday, November 26, Capital Health Region will be on campus at the University of Alberta providing mumps-containing vaccine to students and staff born in or after 1970 who have not had:

• the mumps disease OR
• two doses of mumps containing vaccine

Students and staff who were born in or after 1970 with:

• no history of mumps disease
• history of one or no doses of mumps-containing vaccine
• unknown history of mumps disease or mumps vaccine

should be immunized."

The good news being that you'd be included in this cycle of immunizations.

The bad news is that it's only for university students and staff. They're immunizing universities first because we're massive petri dishes, and because all the mumps outbreaks that have occurred recently occurred on campuses. I'm sure if it becomes a bigger issue they'll run immunization clinics for the larger city population. These are all precautionary measures so that people visiting home for the holidays don't bring the mumps back with them... more info here
