Shelter-in-Place Journal, Day 270

According to Wikipedia, the average human gestation period is 270 days. It feels like today, day 270, was a day of deliverance – with the Supreme Court swatting aside the Texas suit and the FDA giving emergency approval to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. It’s not delivery day yet on either front, but today was a huge step in the right direction.

Shabbat Shalom!

Shelter-in-Place Journal, Day 269

It was another big Toastmasters day – after my club’s meeting, I visited Toastrix (at Citrix) for the first time in a month or so. They seem to be doing well and are adding members, which is good. Their whole company switched from GoToMeeting to Microsoft Teams, so I also had my first experience with Teams; other than being unable to change backgrounds mid-meeting, it seemed very Zoom-like.

My Mac mini has shipped – so far, it’s travelled from Shenzen to Hong Kong. The estimated delivery is Wednesday, so I guess I should prepare backups and get ready for its arrival.

Happy Chanukah!
