So remember our supporter show yesterday where I talked about our scheduled first vacation in over a year to Hawaii, supposed to leave tomorrow AM? State of Hawaii requires COVID testing from select approved partners no earlier than 72hrs prior to departure. We used an approved company called Vault Health which does home testing, shipped UPS overnight air, on Wed. Heard from UPS that the shipment was delayed in Kentucky due to weather, NO ETA on delivery 😭
No local testing options that are fast enough, and they would have been $250 per person even if they were available (there's 4 of us).
Vault Health may not refund our $120/person testing fee, even though we can't go on vacation.
Really bummed right now. Maui businesses don't get our patronage, Vault Health gets free money, and my kids are so sad but will get over it. First world problems...FUCK COVID ✈️
Fun captioned vertical version of our recent YouTube Live conversation, with no ads, here for Locals fam!
In the recent live someone mentioned the different sleep patterns we've had in the past. It was one of those strange coincidences to me as I'd recently learnt that visiting Little Moreton Hall in England. Built in 1504 and decorated in the great hall with this plaster work celebrating a book written by Robert Recorde (he invented the Equals sign). The book was about the split in human thinking, reasoning, belief...science and magical thinking. Nothing's really changed has it and I'm still wondering what they did when they got up in the middle of a dark, cold night with no electricity to do some chores.
