mike’s tips for buying a tree a little too late:
- find literally any place selling trees
- pay them whatever they’re asking
- bring it home
- be glad you didn’t waste the other half of your day trying to find a slightly better one
- hope it stays greenish until christmas

got my bivalent booster today so i assume tmrw i’m gonna feel blah & sunday i’ll be better. tough decision to make — to choose to feel bad. but when i actually got covid (after 3 doses) i was glad to just be uncomfortable at home for a few days, not in the hospital, not dead.
