the_siobhan: (What Would Jaques Cousteau Do?)
[personal profile] the_siobhan
Montreal has consisted mostly of lying around like a lizard which has been - a very welcome break to be honest. The Frenchman has forced me to watch hours of Bojack Horseman, (which is surprisingly good) and help kill his gin supply. There has been a small amount of furniture moving to pay my rent but far less than I would be doing if I were at home.

I haven't had much desire to Do Things, which is probably a) a sign of just how burnt out I was when I got here and b) just as well given that Things Done Not Inside One's House are closing up around me as I speak. Hopefully I can still get on a train when it's time to go home.

On Monday I get home and regular life starts back up. Which means figuring out Xmas and honestly I have no idea what we're going to do about that. Mostly what I'm worried about right now is the Old Man - Omicron is proving to be highly infectious, and although I'm somewhat resigned to catching it eventually, for him it would be a major health risk. But he wants to do Xmas dinner with his family. So I'm trying to figure out the best strategy for dealing with that.

Fortunately this is is future Siobhan's problem.

Admittedly, I don't have a lot of experience because of where I live, or any science training, but I have a gut feeling Omicron isn't going to be under control for a few months,

The R_eff on the Hunter Valley cluster here (a postive person went nightclubbing while waiting for a result) was 300+.

I think the R_eff for Sydney, where they are letting Jesus take the wheel and trusting in personal responsibility, was 16 yesterday. Cases are doubling every three days. Is Rob Ford (or Doug?) available. We might need better leadership!
