I had to replace the batteries again in the scale. It takes four AAA batteries. For something that requires programming, it would be better if it were designed with AA batteries. ¹

I'd heard that the third book in the The Kingkiller Chronicle trilogy by Patrick Rothfuss might be released soon. So I decided to re-read "The Name of the Wind" and "The Wise Man's Fear." But I when I saw how huge the first book was, I got very depressed because it seemed like such a burden in my spare-time-limited life. I got a few pages into it and almost gave up. But I kept at it, and then I couldn't stop reading it. It's such an amazing book.

Yesterday was Star Wars Day, as in "May the Fourth (be with you)." I still chuckle at the thought of a Jedi Knight with a lisp. And in less than three weeks we'll have Towel Day.

I've heard that new guidance from the CDC says that vaccinated folks do not need to wear masks outdoors unless they are in a crowded venue.

But recall that when the vaccination effort first started, the CDC said that vaccinated folks could still transmit the virus, so we had to keep wearing masks. At first I thought the two positions were contradictary. But both could be true if you consider that unvaccinated folks can also go without masks outdoors.

Here's a link to the CDC website that offers guidance.

The latest thing is that I've been diagnosed with prostate cancer. I've been told that if you have to have cancer, this is the best one to have. I'm on the "active surveillance" plan.

I'm eligible to get the vaccine, but I haven't bothered. The vaccine doesn't protect against any variants, and right now the rate of infection from the variants is higher than that of the "original" virus.

My first weigh-in of 2021!

Quick update is that I'm healthy, and I never had CoVid-19 or any symptoms. However, my wife was in hospice in December and got released back into the land of the living a couple of months ago.

It's comforting to know that something like hospice exists. It almost makes up for the lack of support for euthanasia.
