1
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha. I don't just stuff.

2
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: I've never told your production of I Heart Radio. It's Thursday,

3
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: so that means it is time for another happy hour.

4
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: Happy yes, and as always, drink responsibly if you choose too.

5
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: So these are just moments we like to provide where

6
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: we can have some conversations and hopefully give you a

7
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: space to relax as we approach the end of the

8
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: week or you know this whole week structure I'm not

9
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: sure about. Yeah, that could be a whole different conversation.

10
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: But Samantha, what are you stepping on? I have decided

11
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: to go away from alcohol today and I am going

12
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: to stick with a lovely kambucha, which is a raspberry

13
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: lemon ginger has got all the delights. It does have

14
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: quite a bit of sugar, so I'm going to slow

15
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: down on this. However, I was thinking of adding my

16
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: carbonated water with some lemon to it, which I'm gonna

17
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: try now she's just gotten up in the middle of

18
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: the podcast to go do that. I'm gonna do a

19
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: little a SMR to see what it sounds like. So

20
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: here we go, busy and lemony yum. That makes sense,

21
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: So I don't know if I've ever talked about this

22
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: on this show, but I have a real thing about

23
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: using everything up, and I don't like having things that

24
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: just sit around for a long time. So ever since

25
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: we did the Happy Hour with Holly, I've had some

26
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: cranberry juice that I'm trying to get rid of, and

27
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: then a couple Actually it was probably over a year

28
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: ago because of quarantine. I had a friend over and

29
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: she left this like jar of lemonade over, so I've

30
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: been trying to use those up. So I made like

31
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: a sparkling water lemonade cranberry juice with some fresh lemonade

32
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 1: in it. Because I'm not normally a fruit juice person. Like,

33
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: I'll drink it, but it's just like not I was

34
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: gonna say, that's got the artificial flavors you don't like, right,

35
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: So it's fine, But I will say I found a

36
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: bottle of rum hidden. I don't know if I meant

37
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: to hide it if it kind of fell in my

38
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: refrigerator as I was getting the stuff out to make this.

39
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: So that's exciting. Yeah, I have room. I never have room.

40
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: You've got some wrong congratulations. It's fuss about when I

41
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: have like I thought I'd ring out of whatever beer

42
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: that I have or saltzers or whatever, and I'm like,

43
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: I'll look at one war Yeah, it's a nice, nice

44
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: discovery surprise. It's surprise at the bottom of the bag

45
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: when you thought we're done with all the fries. That's

46
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: that is lovely. Speaking of lovely, as we record this,

47
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: Samantha and I are approaching our two week post second

48
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: dose vaccination period, which will mean that we are fully

49
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:22,239
Speaker 1: vaccinated tomorrow who until we have to boosters boosters. Yeah. Yeah,

50
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: it is very exciting, and it's exciting because I feel

51
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: like a lot of my friends and family are either

52
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 1: very close to being fully vaccinated or are fully vaccinated.

53
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: I feel like for me, I'm not telling too many people,

54
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: Like I haven't done all of the photos or any

55
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: of the announcements because I like being underground and unreachable.

56
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: I like this excuse of being able to say I

57
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: can't come out. Uh, and people for the most part

58
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: at least understanding why I'm saying that. So, hey, y'all,

59
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: don't tell people. As you're on a podcast for finding

60
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: just saying don't tell people. Yeah, I was hoping that,

61
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: you know, by posting something it would be like, you

62
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: can go get yours absolutely. Like I want to be

63
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: like encouraging and all that. At the same time, I'm

64
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: kind of like, I also don't want to tell people

65
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: I can come out unless I choose to be with

66
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: that one person. I will say, I've already gotten the

67
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: invitations have started coming right, oh dear, I'm ready. I

68
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: have to and I'm starting to be like, well maybe,

69
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: And I will say a part of this too is

70
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: because people are so excited, including me, that I am

71
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: having people plan things way in advance, and because of

72
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: my introvertedness and my anxiety and depression in general, I

73
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: sometimes will say yes on a good day and then

74
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: the day it rises, like how do I get out

75
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: of this? Sure, let's normalized being able to change our

76
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: mind about hanging out. Yeah, I think. I think that's

77
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: a human experience. I think a lot of people feel

78
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: that way. And that's kind of one of the things

79
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: we talked about in our self Care episode is it's

80
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,119
Speaker 1: not just saying yes to the happy hour of friends.

81
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: Is being able to say no to the happy hour

82
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: of friends when you need to. And we're not going

83
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: to get too much into any of this stuff in

84
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: this Happy Hour episode, but did what I mentioned. There's

85
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: been a lot of research coming out is more and

86
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: more people have gotten the vaccine and more and more

87
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: people have had it for six months about women with

88
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: pregnancy and the safety of that, which so far seems

89
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: all good. But we can dig into that in a

90
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: future episode. And then I didn't know about this, but

91
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: I heard from some friends and I looked it up

92
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: and totally right. But um, some women are having reactions

93
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: with their periods where they're having extreme heavy flow periods

94
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: or something. So that's something else to in too, because

95
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: I verified it online and it's not just anecdotal, it

96
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: is observed thing. And also I saw an article about

97
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: how some doctors are afraid that it's going to be

98
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: a summer full of st I s is everybody is

99
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: so excited to get out there and they're gonna forget everything.

100
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: I guess, right. I also know that there's a whole

101
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 1: conversation of people going out too soon. So I was

102
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: very guilty because I really wanted to go out and

103
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: even possibly exercise earlier this week, but in my mind

104
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: of like sen days a right at sendays and then

105
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: realizing the cautionary bits fourteen, So I'm like, oh man,

106
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: I need to wait, but that's not happening. People immediately

107
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: are getting their second dosage and a couple of days

108
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: are like, I'm going out because there are some statistics

109
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 1: saying that you know that after second shot of the fiser,

110
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: within a week, it's ninety percent effective, and people are

111
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: just banking on that, not realizing a Again, these are

112
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: all theories and hopefully but also the fact that we

113
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: don't know what your body is gonna do specifically to

114
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: what's happening. And of course people have been talking a

115
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: lot about side effects. As you were mentioning before, some

116
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: people are being knocked out for like three days. I

117
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: have a friend who literally got shingles, and apparently that's

118
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: known to happen to a few whether it's just the

119
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: resurgence of an old virus, you know, because we know

120
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: that shingles come through chickenpox, all of that stuff. Um,

121
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: so you never know what's going to happen with your

122
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: body and how it feels, but you definitely should do it. Yeah,

123
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: the risks are too high. Yeah, absolutely, Like having these

124
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: conversations about side effects is just being I mean, they're

125
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: very rare generally, and also, so we'll talk about this

126
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: in a little bit, but I had a really bad

127
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: reaction to the second shot, and I've been hesitant about

128
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: sharing it with people just because i know, like they're saying,

129
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: millions of people aren't getting your second dose because they

130
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: think if first one is enough and that it's not

131
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: worth whatever you go through with the second one. But

132
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, but COVID though, and then there is a

133
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: pretty high uptick of people who are getting COVID after

134
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: even after the first shot, and that's the conversation that

135
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: needs to be having. And then the numbers are really

136
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: high right now, we're just not talking about it as much.

137
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: People are all kind of I don't know if it's

138
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: because we're focused on the vaccine and trying to get

139
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: people to get vaccinated and so that's what the focus

140
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: is on. But the numbers and statistics and the hospitalizations

141
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: are starting to rise again, and that's a concern for sure. Yeah. Yeah,

142
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: and we're hopefully obviously, but we're not medical experts, so

143
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: don't seek you're that type of advice from us. But

144
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: also there's bank conversations, rightfully so about being the privilege

145
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: of being in like the United States, where now we

146
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: have extra vaccines and other countries can't get them right,

147
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: So that's another conversation we need to be having for sure,

148
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: and the whole trying to copyright and not share. Yeah,

149
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: I think I'm too much of a socialist for those conversations.

150
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: Cement the socialist. My name is now on the list,

151
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: isn't because I said it? Yes, it's true. I'm sorry.

152
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 1: I just had a hard time when you have something

153
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: that could actually save people all of the world and

154
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: you're just being selfish. Yeah. Maybe there's some legalities that

155
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: I don't understand, but it just doesn't make sense to

156
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: me when you have something that could actually help the world. Yeah. Yeah.

157
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: And it was also another thing where I saw a

158
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: lot of people talking about you know, when I went

159
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: to go get it, there was a part of me

160
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: like am I going to have to pay and you don't?

161
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: And then other countries like in like the UK or

162
00:09:54,760 --> 00:10:00,199
Speaker 1: Canada like, uh, what would you care? Yeah? Yeah, think

163
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: that's really interesting too, because that is the bigger conversation

164
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: of like, hey, this is what health care, universal health

165
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: care would look like. You know how easy it was

166
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: just to get it done, and I have to worry

167
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: about all the pains in the paperwork. Yeah, this is

168
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,719
Speaker 1: what you should be just to know that you can

169
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: save your life or be healthy not it. Yeah, as

170
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 1: well as the fact that, uh, you know, I tell

171
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: you that my parents are very conservative in my my

172
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: parents are very excited about medicare and I have been

173
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: using it and I'm very preventive stuff, and I'm very

174
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: glad they are. But in my back of my head,

175
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, do you not understand this could have been

176
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: you the whole time. You didn't have to be in

177
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: pain and worried about what's wrong with you and not

178
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: being able to afford to find out. Yeah. Yeah, So

179
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: there's a lot of issues to entangle around all of this.

180
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: Probably not good for a happy hour, though, so we

181
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: thought we would just discuss our our personal experience and

182
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: feelings as we got the second desk, because we got

183
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: it on the same day, I had to maneuver in

184
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: a way to make sure to get our vaccine a

185
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 1: little earlier, just because I don't know if you guys

186
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 1: have read that Walgreen's Apparently when they were originally doing

187
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: the appointments, they would give you the second appointment, but

188
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: they would stretch it out so for Fiser, they recommend

189
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: it within three weeks, and uh, they would do it

190
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: for four weeks and no one understood why, and to

191
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 1: the point of the CDC called them out and I

192
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: was like, why are you doing this? Give them their shot.

193
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: And so when I found that out, I was like, oh,

194
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: let me see if I can get an appointment a

195
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: week early. Because also I was getting jealous at the

196
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: fact that people who had shots after me, we're getting

197
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: their second shoots before me. It was a little bit

198
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: of competitiveness in that route. Um, so we were able

199
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: to work it out. And because in Georgia, after the

200
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: number showed how bad we were at giving vaccines, the

201
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: numbers jumped very quickly when KEMP decided to pull push

202
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: the age level to sixteen. Yeah, as well as giving

203
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: people broader options to get shots. So when that happened,

204
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: all of the mass sites opened up. And by the way,

205
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: the rural areas still have a lot of extra shots

206
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: as where of course the populated urban areas had less.

207
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: So it's definitely interesting to see how that's worked out.

208
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, for us, we just decided to go ahead

209
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: and get it done as soon as we could. So

210
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,439
Speaker 1: I think it was like two days but after the

211
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: day that I could get a shot, but a week

212
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: earlier than when we were supposed to get our shot,

213
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: and I was like, any we're gonna be vaccinated on

214
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: the same day, and then the whole like I forgot

215
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: They named something specifically to fighter people who get shots

216
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: in Maderna people, but you're a Maderna girl, and I

217
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 1: was a finer girl. I only know one other person

218
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: who got in there. Now I have I know several

219
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: people who have gotten Maderna. And originally I wanted to

220
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: get Maderna because I was like Dr Corbett she did

221
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: some amazing things, and and you know Dolly Park, She's

222
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: amazing Dolly Parton. I'm there right, I mean, I'm just

223
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: saying those two things, both of those days, like, yes,

224
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: I want to be a part of their history. But

225
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I've heard people having different reactions to

226
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: both and your reaction and my other good friends reaction,

227
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, who also had Maderna. I

228
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 1: was like, maybe I don't want that madernal want, even

229
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: though both have side effects. Yeah, well, so Smith and

230
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: I were it was almost like a well, you don't

231
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen because we got him at the

232
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: same time. We were going to compare symptoms. And I

233
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: went to bed that night and woke up and I

234
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: was like, oh um, and probably by I would say,

235
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: late afternoon. The next day, I was like, oh no,

236
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: this is bad and it's stick around for like five

237
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: to seven days. It was bad for three days. And

238
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 1: when I say bad, it was bad, right. But I

239
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 1: know you don't believe me, Smapa, but I've been told

240
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: that that means I have a robust immune system, and

241
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 1: I'm running with that. You keep that. I've said it

242
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 1: like this when my parents would tell me when kids

243
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: would pick on me for being Asians, instead of saying

244
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: that people are racist, they were just like they're jealous

245
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: because they were so pretty. I'm like that, that's not

246
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: how that works. But okay, I don't know how I

247
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: feel about that comparison. You're very cute and ready m

248
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: but no, yeah, I believe that. I think I was

249
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: very surprised because between the two of us, your immune

250
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: system seems to be a little better in the sense

251
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: of like you can eat almost anything and you're okay

252
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: as well. If I eat something, I'm not like, I

253
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: don't I don't have a sense of stomach, but I

254
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: will be more affective than you are typically what I've seen.

255
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: But you also are the one you get the random

256
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: illnesses that I'm like, how did you get both of

257
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: these things? What happened? Yeah? I feel like I haven't

258
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: been six since I mean god many years, so but

259
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: when I do get sick, I get like the very

260
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: very severe how did you get this? Like you have

261
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: to be quarantined levels? Yeah, like this is not my

262
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: first time being quarantined, it's actually of my third time.

263
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: But because of that, it was kind of funny, like

264
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: I was miserable, but I was like, wow, I forgot

265
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: the bloody can do this to you? Which is I'm

266
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: very lucky that I never get sick. But I said, man,

267
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: everything burns. What is this? The level of giggles, not

268
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: because you were suffering. I was very sad, but the

269
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: back and forth of you like I'm sweating, I'm so cold,

270
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: I am drenched, I can't move, everything hurts, uh, but

271
00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: I'm working. Like that was I did ten near to

272
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: work and for me, I got a small fever the

273
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: next day that the day that I got my shot.

274
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: It was like the first time I got my shot,

275
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: which was the next day, was really painful. It felt

276
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: like I had been in a car wreck and landed

277
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: on my shoulder type of thing. Like it was really painful,

278
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: but not a big deal, like I can move, everything's fine.

279
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: Next morning, you know, the couple of days later it

280
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: was gone. But the day I got out the second shot,

281
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: it was immediate. I was like, oh my gosh, somehow

282
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: my partner ended up finding that spot. You know how

283
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: it is at one spot that you don't want to touch,

284
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: and somehow it always happens because I don't why, Like

285
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: I just would scream. And then the next day I

286
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: was kind of sluggish and tired, arm was hurting, and

287
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: then I got little bit of a fever, but that

288
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 1: quickly went away weston as I took an Abbie profen

289
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: and took a little nap and that was it. And

290
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: the following day I was fine. So and since then

291
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: I haven't had any I don't that I'm aware of symptoms,

292
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: So for me, it was much easier. They knew to

293
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: the point that, like, I think we came back. I'm

294
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: thinking we did our shot on the Wednesday. We made

295
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,479
Speaker 1: sure we didn't record anything. We're kind of ahead, and

296
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 1: then when I talked to you on Monday, you're along

297
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: Okay that Tuesday I still felt nauseated, right, but worth it. Oh,

298
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: totally totally work because guess who's going to go get

299
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 1: wings somewhere tomorrow? We are get my haircut, she don't

300
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: get her haircut. I'm gonna go with joy. Yeah, yeah,

301
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: I mean I think that's been interesting, which we've talked

302
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: about this before. People have been writing articles about it.

303
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: Of the anxiety that you were touching on something ata

304
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: of I'm really excited about some things, but also very

305
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: anxious about other things. And I'll say like when I

306
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: got my first shot, I almost was brought to tears.

307
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: I was so excited. When I got my second one,

308
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: I was excited, but I was very much more like,

309
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: oh no, um, I guess I will have to go outside.

310
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: I'm not as excited as I'm hearing from other people.

311
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: Does that mean I messed up? Like you know? And

312
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 1: I think we're all gonna have to deal with that

313
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: of going through this, right you you vastly changed based

314
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: on plans around you, and because people know you as

315
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: the go to person, that's a whole lot of expectations

316
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: that laid on you anyway, For me, I have the

317
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: anxiety of going out because I don't want to be

318
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: around the people. Necessarily I feel like I'm not the best,

319
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: especially if I'm in one of my modes where it's

320
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: just really hard for me to communicate, really hard for

321
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 1: me to articulate what's happening inside of my head and

322
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: really paranoid, and therefore I kind of translate what you

323
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: say to me as if I'm doing something wrong. So

324
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: that's part of my whole anxiety. So for me, saying no,

325
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: it's fairly easy, and I've gotten to the habit of

326
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: just not saying yes until the last minute. So that's

327
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: my trick, which I know everybody's like, but my friends

328
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: understand well enough that that's how I do it, and

329
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 1: because I don't know that level and maybe I'm just

330
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 1: gotten too old to care too much about them. Like

331
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 1: I've made the friends that I've made, and they know

332
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: me well enough that they understand, I hope, and I'll

333
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: give that same allowance to others. So that that because

334
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: typically if they cancel my thank god that's But so

335
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: for me, it's a whole separate set of why we're

336
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: feeling this, and again, like I said, like, I'm excited

337
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: about going out and being able to do things. So

338
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 1: even if it's just me and you going to get wings,

339
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm super excited about that. I'm not excited about going

340
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: out with a crowd of people being close to me

341
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 1: and just all up in each other's space. I'm not

342
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: going to that being around a group of twenty people,

343
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: not being able to talk to everybody talking to one person,

344
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: feeling anxiety because you will have this performance anxiety of

345
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: being cool around these people. Not looking forward to that.

346
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: So there's definitely levels of like, oh yeah, I'm really

347
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: excited about going to have a happy hour with two

348
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: of my friends or you know, three of my friends.

349
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: That's so exciting. Or being able to call and be like, hey,

350
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: what are you doing today, Let's go give runch. That's awesome.

351
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: Everything else well, I will tell you one I know joke,

352
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: and I know this is very silly. I had a

353
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: nightmare the other night of our people going to expect

354
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: me to plan a birthday party because my birthday is

355
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: always a big throwdown. Oh yeah, and it's it's far

356
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: away enough that it's possible it could be done. So

357
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 1: and there's that. And then the second thing is I

358
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: don't know if you listeners remember, but forever ago, when

359
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: Samantha and I did therapy sessions on this very show,

360
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: I was talking about how I felt like if I

361
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: wasn't the fun one, if I didn't put on this performance,

362
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: I would lose all my friends. And I will say

363
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: that did not happen this year. People have they've been

364
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: so supportive and they showed up for me, and I've

365
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: you've showed up for me, and it means the world

366
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 1: to me because I really was like an insecurity that

367
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: I have. And then thirdly, I do think and this

368
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: is this could be really specific to our office and

369
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 1: our kind of group of co workers and friends. Almost

370
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: everyone I've spoken to is like, I want to continue

371
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: working from home. I'm happy getting out of social plans,

372
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: Like I'm excited about some of these things, but in general,

373
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: I'm good. And so I don't think that you are

374
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: the only one by any means. That's good to know.

375
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 1: I like that. Yeah, obviously people love your presence because

376
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: you do make things fun. But also I always want

377
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: to encourage you to having your own times because watching

378
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: you get into your fan fiction as you do, which

379
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: is your pride and joy. I can't imagine anybody to

380
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: help taking that away from you. Yeah, the Year of

381
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: fan fiction. Um, I love it. I love it. I

382
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: love with some people like their babies. They're probably enjoy

383
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: their dogs are proad enjoying me my fan fiction, My

384
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: quarantine baby. That is your quarantine baby. There you go. Yeah,

385
