Some people are mentally ruined when they don't get to enjoy their annual holidays. It kind of reminds me of when my high school dance was canceled due to a student tragedy, and some people pretty much lost their shit because they were so invested in this dance. I have a lot less patience for that attitude in the past couple years. We need to be able to adapt and change when there's, I dunno, a destructive virus going around.

My family all ended up with bronchitis this week and decided to postpone Thanksgiving dinner to Saturday, but I'm still not going. If they're not healthy today, two days isn't going to make a difference, and I'm not risking getting sick given I'm pleased with how healthy I've been this past year or so.
