Mom thinks she has the C19... not good.  She’s already an unhealthy person unfortunately, and a cancer survivor.... 

Shoulda listened to me and stayed the heck out of the public...

Is she getting tested?  There is still something out there called the flu; not that the flu is much better.

Yeah, 5-7 day turn around in the tests in Michigan I guess..?

That or longer for a symptomatic test at this point, I believe. Can't keep up with the demand. 

My wife and I both get weekly asymptomatic tests through our employers and they are still turned around in 24-48 hours at this point.

I get a real kick out of reading testers wanted threads. 

Just as good as the comments to MGS articles.

Did a practice smo-fried turkey yesterday...4 hour smoke, roughly 30 minutes in the fryer.  Nailed it; turned out fantastic.  Ready for the real deal on Thursday!

That seems like an awfully long turnaround time.

I want to fry one for work but know that won't happen neither will a smoked one. You'll have plenty of turkey to eat this week.

They should only take a day max now. Those must be the old tests from March

Selling puppies slowly but surely. They are loud but fun to watch though and I can get them riled up

I agree.  I had a test back in May I think it was... I never actually got the results, just a cut off phone call from the health department.

It’s Michigan... they can’t count or something in that state...

dad just got a test today... apparently my moms doctor said their whole town most likely has it.  If you haven’t followed Michigan’s cases at all... they absolutely went frogging nuts after Halloween.

I have really got to work on not procrastinating on these weird papers.  I had to write an essay on 7 chapters, but it couldn’t be more than two pages.  It is so choppy and makes no sense... I don’t think I could have done it any better though...

Brings back memories.  Just gotta push through it.

I did it all the way through school.  Spent lots of very late nights before papers were due.

Later in my life I was going to join the Procrastinator's Club, but I kept putting it off.

Just finished.  Not even sure what the topic was my brain is fried.  A really confusing 7 chapters that all go about saying the same thing in a round about way... could have summed them all up in one paragraph.

must be my job.  We cut out all the BS, and get right to the point.  No need for a novel when it can be a haiku.

We recently met a couple from Lansing, Michigan here in AZ.  They were telling us that, about a month ago, her Mother waited in a line there for testing, finally got tired of the excessive wait, and went home.  A week later she was notified that she had tested positive . 

Her Mother said she couldn't decide which pissed her off more; having tested positive on a test she did not take or that it took a week to notify her.

you should try a philosophy style of paper report.  Go on and on and on and on about nothing, and then just restate.  Worked for me in college.

That’s exactly what I did.  I told a story in 5 different ways, all with the same ending.  Then the conclusion was a mash up of all of the thing I already said.  None of it made any sense.
