A Very Covid Thanksgiving

Posted on Nov 23, 2023

Got up to Tahoe last night, and CEO tested positive for covid this afternoon, so we’re likely driving back tomorrow. Fortunately we caught the bug before causing a riot by spreading it at the friends and family dinner.

Can’t hang out with the fam tonight, but we’re all watching Oppenheimer; Mom had given me a biography on Oppenheimer years ago so my brain was busy doing lil cross-correlations. That era of physicists was bafflingly brilliant, but strange; broken? Schrodinger’s pedophilia, Oppenheimer’s political / affairs and raging ranch-aholism.

Kinesthesia

In the morning (pre-covid-scare) went for a 4mi run with Dani averaging like 11min miles. Chest felt a little tight, but legs were great. Run flew by; Christmas Valley is gorgeous and vivid for its scars.

Tomorrow I’ll get a ride or run in before we head out (as always, jonesing for the big meadow -> christmas valley loop). Also, for dads birthday thinking to rent him an electric mtb. Covid & outdoor is the way to go.
