Yep we do every spring. Lyme disease was enough one time. Brutal disease.

Gonna be a rough, rough summer of ticks and spotted lantern flies. Mild winter didn't do anything for their population.

Same, application status is still "Accepted". Hopefully won't be super long.

Just don't go dipping your baby in Pompton Lake and you're probably fine. NJ has some extremely strict water regulations so you'll know if your water is contaminated in Wayne. I've swam in Pines Lake many times without much worry.
Here's some reading for you though.

They're all good now thankfully, just feels like it's a parade of new cases coming from that town. I doubt they're getting anything, fuck Dupont.

Oof...married someone from Pompton Lakes. You aren't kidding about the cancer thing. Everyone in her family has had it and they aren't even near the lake. A kid they graduated with died at 18 from cancer too.

You find out your "friends" aren't really friends at all, just drinking buddies.

Yeah, it's a dangerous "hobby" for sure. Tons of lining up for releases, trading beers, seeking out breweries on trips. Just became such a burden.
I'm sure COVID when all the breweries around me were delivering it would've been a nightmare at home.

Everyone's different of course but I was a full fledged craft beer nerd, now 4 years sober. I drink maybe two 6 packs of craft NA a year, it's nice for tailgates and parties to not feel weird but they're not cheap and the calories just feel empty.

That isn't true. He started on public access... Possibly as satire, and got worse and worse.

Reply to comment by AllThoseSadSongs in Sub shortage adds to teacher stress: Many report depression, burnout and more after COVID-19 burdens by rollotomasi07071
I want to punch anyone who says teachers only work 180 days or just 8-3 daily. My wife works basically 7 days a week between grading papers, prepping lessons and going to grad school because that's the only way to make decent money in the profession.
They routinely take away her prep periods to cover other classes too. It's a mess. I try to make her life super easy on weekdays, cooking most nights but it's tough. There's only so much I can do.

I was 16 so the doctor was convinced it was Mono. The symptoms were incredibly similar...super achy, slept no less than 18 hours a day, very weak. Just saps all the life out of you.
Took me lobbying for 2 appointments for them to test for lyme because I was working grounds at a golf course at the time. Yep, I was right. Eventually got on antibiotics and couldn't go outside the rest of the summer but other than that I haven't had long term effects which I'm grateful for.
