Yesterday, waking up was exhausting and a little painful. The aches and pains got better as the day progressed, and I rested a lot. Today I put my feet on the floor feeling normal and almost refreshed. <\/p>\n<p>And then I walked the block-and-a-half into my building on campus and was utterly wiped out. Winded. Hands-on-my-knees just finished a sprint sort of condition. But it passed. And by the end of a day at the office I felt much better. I guess that&#8217;s what work will do for you sometimes. <\/p>\n<p>By the time I took this photo, standing in the backyard and looking to the south-southwest at 8:10 p.m., I felt as normal as any other day. <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kennysmith.org\/photo\/mar21\/mar44.jpg\"><\/center><\/p>\n<p>And just like that sunset, he said poetically, my side effects with my second dose of the Covid vaccine are already fading into memory.  <\/p>\n<p>Now bring on those super powers.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kennysmith.org\/blog\/banners\/bannerfeather.jpg\"><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Here are two shows I didn&#8217;t see produced last night, so we can watch them for the first time together.

(It stinks that they have to do this in masks, but I&#8217;m proud of how they&#8217;ve gone along with that since they came back to campus, and how they&#8217;ve adapted to all the other things put before them. &#8220;You need a suggestion for how to talk about yourself in a job interview, talk about rolling with the punches and continuing to put your best foot forward, no matter what the old guy insists to foist on you as safety precautions,&#8221; that&#8217;s what I tell them.)<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sDjcudXFFZE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>That was a fast show this week.
