1. Alas, Covid doesn't give a fuck about

almost anything. Even if you're vaccinated.

I am also vaccinated. I'm still wearing a mask everywhere, but I'll be honest and tell you it has more to do with recent dental surgery, tooth extractions, and dentures. I'm not really fit to be seen in public yet. Honestly, I'm very grateful for the pandemic that allows me to wear a mask. I also have the good fortune to live in northern New Mexico, and lots of people here are still masking. I'm pretty sure that many of them are fully vaccinated, as I am, but for whatever reasons still choose to mask.

I will NOT question someone who continues to mask. People have very different reasons for masking, and who am I to question or judge?
