That was weird.

This morning I couldn't get into DU. At all. No matter what I tried, a blank white screen was all that showed. So, went about my usual routine, checking in from time to time to try again. Nada. After a few hours I went to the store to pick up some prescriptions, came home, and DU came up like always. So, very glad it's back, but I'd still like to know what made it go away and what made it come back. Iggggg.

Sometimes I think the universe pokes me now and then just to see if I'm paying attention. But yeesh.

Doing well, have had all my shots and am looking forward to resuming a longer leash.

How 'bout you?

Of autumn. Spent three hours climing over rocks at the beach this morning, sticking my camera under shelves and into crannies to photograph my beloved slimes and jellies. Exhausted but happy!

Covid vaccinations for the public are just starting here. I guess I'll get mine fairly soon but in general we had far fewer cases than the US.

Turned out that the Windows update had changed my display settings or something like that. I had to change it back to the default.
It only affected that one site, not sure why.
