Here's something I dont recommend doing if you live for the Oscars each year: getting vaccinated the day before. Had so many fun blogging plans today but vaccine reactions called and said 'you're not getting out of bed today! [EVIL LAUGH]'. On a happier note, fully vaccinated now. Woohoo. And good timing in a way since the Oscars are essentially New Years Eve for us and 2021 can start proper tomorrow.
