So, in December I (and the rest of my household) got hit with COVID despite being really quite cautious and careful. It was shitty. I started training again seven weeks ago. It was also shitty, for a lot of reasons, but mostly because of post-COVID health fuckery.
.
Tonight I finally had a class where I did well enough I felt like there was even a point in filming it.
.
Believe me, I’m aware this is not good and beautiful aerial video. I don’t CARE. I was in the air for around a minute, doing a sequence. My movement was controlled and I had the breath to discuss shit while I was in the air. That? That is all a fucking TRIUMPH. For me and for modern medicine. Three weeks on a steroid inhaler and I finally feel like I might be able to get *back* to where I was before the pandemic in another couple months.
.
Get vaccinated, the second you can, people. Just... fucking get vaccinated. Whichever goddamned one you can get in your arm: GET VACCINATED.

I am so pleased there was a still in this that I was like "I actually look good" to choose as the cover for the video. I am so pleased to have felt like taking video wasn't a complete waste of time/memory.
I'm still actually unconvinced I should even be training in the studio at all, yet, but... well. We live in a dystopic hell! I'm trying my level best to be do right by everyone around me and myself both in the face of a state government that's fucking awful and refusing to make good public health decisions. (My county is actually being almost functional, but.) *wry* It is the compromise I am at, for the moment.
