I just got an appointment this week for Saturday evening, because, you know, what else am I doing on a Saturday night these days? I was so excited when I booked the appointment, I didn't believe it actually had happened.

Virginia is still in 1b... I snagged an appointment on the other side of the commonwealth for my mom for Friday afternoon at Walgreens. I called her grocery store pharmacy to try to get her an appointment there instead (it's closer to her house), but they didn't receive any vaccine this week.

Right now Illinois is ahead of my state in vaccinations and I'll be interested to see if that changes now that the vax is open to everyone and it feels like people are getting appointments.
