Update from the house of Plague (Day 101 of Year 2)
House of plague confirmed (Darcy's PCR was positive).

Am not feeling great myself - just sort of all over achy, so I guess we'll see how it goes. If the daily posts stop because of actual covid I'll appreciate the irony for sure...

Daily Dimash: Thousands Of Miles A Common Dream
The song is based on the poetry of Zhang Jiuling of the Tang Dynasty. The poem was written to comfort friends who are about to travel a long journey.
Longer video with context & subtitles:
Go to youtube to see more info/story/lyrics. All I'll note here is that Dimash dedicated the song to the medical workers of the Wuhan Union Hospital (the song was recorded on Jan. 8, 2020). The main objective of this show is to popularize the Chinese traditional fine arts among the young people through pop culture by having pop stars sing the texts of ancient poetry out to the audience.
He also performed 'Adai' on the dombra:

Dimash sang in New Year (2021-22) in China on the CCTV channel with Thousands of Miles, A Common Dream (万里梦同心), in a duet with Yingxi Zhang.
ETA: Lovely reaction. Make sure to add subtitles.

Well Darcy & Miss M both got ill with ~something~ way back when (March 2020), when there were no tests or anything. We all just isolated and they got better pretty quickly. So who knows? However the consensus is that this one is much worse, so the first one might just have been a bug of some kind.
Also I thought you had both your shots? Which vaccine, if you don't mind me asking?
AstraZeneca, and Darcy & I have had the first one. Miss M has had both shots. So we should be fine in the long run (i.e. we're not worried about ending up in hospital) it's just annoying being ill.
Anyhow, fingers crossed you get well soon and it doesn't get worse.
Thank you! <3
