For Teresa and me, March 1 has long been the anniversary of the day we moved to New York City, back in 1984.

This year, it was also the first anniversary of the announcement of the first known case of COVID-19 in New York City.

With any luck, we'll live to mark future March 1sts as the anniversary of when Teresa got her first shot of the COVID-19 vaccine. And thanks to my being up-and-online freakishly early this morning, March 2, I unexpectedly got my own first shot today. We both have appointments for our second shots.

Signs and portents. Maybe we can make some light.
