I never know if the aftermath of my vaxxes and boosters are real or psychological, but the evidence is tending towards real. No.4's extreme mental fuzz was a bit over the limit to be emotional fallout, and yesterday's bivalent led to my chronic dull sinus headache turning into a real headache of the kind I never get, and upped the chronic joint ache by a factor of ten. So I heated some beanbags, rolled me up in my duvet, and went to sleep for five hours. I don't nap anymore, ever since I stopped overdosing on muscle relaxants, so if I nap there must be something unusual happening.

Then, having slept to almost ten, I had some food, read a little online, went back to bed at midnight, and slept another nine hours. So yes, there were side effects this time, and I shall inform the Province so when they send me the follow up questionnaire they like people to fill out.

But I got a few good dreams out of it. Best was the one where Petronia and I were studying with a famous Japanese novelist who was a seductive narcissist with a bad reputation where women were concerned. Petronia had already had a course with him and was wise to his ways. I was less prepared, but after the three of us had taken a trip somewhere to collect his early manuscripts, I told myself I was only sucking up to him to get material for my thesis.

I’ve definitely had aftermaths after my jabs - sounds as though you slept it off nicely, though.

I haven't had such bad reactions to vaccination as that. A lot milder at worst in my case. My one known infection thus far was also barely noticeable, and I still want to avoid reinfection to whatever degree I still can. You already know my complaints about the situation in which I still find myself.

Any rational person wants to avoid infection or, if unlucky, reinfection. The data on long covid is still being gathered, if nothing else. Unfortunately the 'it's just a flu!' deniers are yet with us.

Congrats on the healthy immune system, then!

To both of us.
