  1. Same! I was like what in the world?!?
  2. As of this morning, according to the WSJ: 25.4% of the US population is fully vaccinated with 40% given at least a dose At least one dose - VA 42.1%, MD 42.7%, DC 40.9% Full dose - VA 26.6% (including 66% aged 65+), MD 27.8% (69% aged 65+), and DC 23.5% (56% 65+)
  3. It looks like NWS may need frost advisories for the outer burbs Wednesday night/Thursday AM. Forecast lows below 35.
  4. Spring by far is the worst season out there. But it’ll still be nice to get away. Have a great trip.
  5. Today is pretty chilly. Feels like March, not April
  6. This weather sucks. It’s depressing and I’d much prefer sunny and 70. As others have said, outlook doesn’t look great either.
  7. Great pre-game ceremony for Backstrom’s 1,000th game. Let’s go Caps!!
  8. Goodbye Gate 35X! https://wtop.com/gallery/local/bye-35x-tour-of-the-concourse-at-reagan-national-that-will-retire-the-dreaded-gate/
  9. We went to St Lucia in November and we just needed to show a negative test to enter the country (and do daily temperature checks at the resort). I’d imagine the small island countries who had those requirements would likely just remove the test requirement with proof of vaccination.
  10. More rain. I’m over this weather.
  11. Agree. I can’t wait to see a game in person in a few weeks!
  12. Damn, Caps are on a roll these last two games. Also liked Mantha’s contributions tonight!
  13. What happened to the sun and warmth?
  14. The 2nd shot did a number on me yesterday. Basically slept on the couch all day — aches, fever, chills, etc. Back to normal today. and happy I’m vaccinated! I had to go into our office today to host a few clients in a workshop - first time in person since last March. Definitely felt ‘weird’ seeing co-workers in person but wearing a mask for 10 straight hours is enough to make me not want to go back in person until mask requirements are lifted haha.
  15. Thanks! I’m probably up to 100 oz so far today, ha. I’m basically living in the bathroom at this point.
  16. Moderna shot 2 today! And sorry gotta disagree.....nothing better than chilling on the beach with a beer or white claw.
  17. I was so damn hungry that I didn’t stop to “smell the flowers” aka get a photo haha. I’ll remember next time! Funny enough - I find myself thinking of this forum when I use the Wegmans basting oil you posted about a while ago. That stuff is so good and so versatile.

  18. I made Alison Roman's Braised Short Ribs recipe from NYT Cooking for Easter Sunday. It was my 2nd time making that recipe and this time was so much better. The difference is that I made it the day before, which allowed the sauce to rest and it was easier to remove the layer of fat the next day. Then I heated it back up in the dutch oven for ~90 minutes to allow for a bit more braising. Highly recommend her recipe! Garlic Braised Short Ribs With Red Wine Recipe - NYT Cooking (nytimes.com)
  19. Sorry, I didn’t know Discovery+ was so controversial.
  20. So anyways. We did a free trial for Discovery+ to watch Resurrection over Easter weekend (very good btw). Well....I’ve gotten suckered into keeping it beyond the free trial as I cannot get enough of endless HGTV programming. If you’re a glutton for home improvement shows, stay away from Discovery+
  21. Got up to 84 today. +20 departure
  22. My grey car looks green. Spring in full effect.
  23. Was that Moderna? I got my 1st Moderna last month - no symptoms beyond a typical sore arm but then a week later developed “COVID arm” - rash, itchy, swollen that lasted 24 hours. I get my 2nd Moderna tomorrow and I’ve heard the side effects of that are a doozy....knocked out for 1-2 days basically.
  24. Wow, pretty dumb. I’m terrified of heights so I literally white knuckle drive across the bridge...can’t imagine attempting a stunt.
