| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody welcome to Matt and Doris X-On Adventure. I'm Matt. I am Doris. Back at it again everybody. Hello! |
| 0:06.6 | Hope you're all doing well. Hope you're all staying free of the Ronas. Or hope you have a mild case of the Ronas if you have it. |
| 0:14.0 | I guess what I'm saying is everybody's gonna get it eventually. You might as well be vaccinated and not go into a hospital. Thank you. |
| 0:24.0 | I really hope all of our listeners are vaccinated. If you're listening and you're not vaccinated now is the time to get vaccinated and then pretend there was never a time when you weren't. Thank you. |
| 0:40.0 | Yeah. I mean I got to assume we're such a science-friendly program that everyone listening loves science and medical jargon. I'm hoping that that was... |
| 0:52.0 | I think they're just tickly doctors here. Yeah. I feel like that is probably the case. |
| 0:59.0 | And if not they have some bizarre medical exemption like joke of it. I feel like everyone I know either has COVID or has COVID symptoms but is testing negative. |
| 1:13.0 | And I think I have COVID but it's not like a much touching positive. Yeah. Because everyone forgot what a cold is. Because everybody was so careful last year that nobody really got sick because everyone wore masks. |
| 1:29.0 | Didn't leave any going really. It was kind of wild to have a... like a baby who did not get sick for over a year. |
| 1:38.0 | Yep. Now it's every other week. He picks up something new at the... whatever thing he's near. Doesn't matter if it's a playground. |
| 1:48.0 | I'm just hoping that he's developing like a really strong immune system. |
| 1:54.0 | I don't know. He does seem like maybe he will. I don't know. I just think he will. He's kind of like a baby about everything but he's too. |
| 2:06.0 | I actually feel like he handles sickness pretty well for a two year. He does. He also handles like injury pretty well. Yeah. |
| 2:15.0 | Like the other day he heard his elbow against the... hit his elbow against the wall of the house, the stucco. Real hard. And he was like very upset for a second. |
| 2:29.0 | And then when I told him I wasn't bleeding, he's like, that no need bandaid. Knee has bandaid. |
| 2:37.0 | He was upset about his knee for a few minutes. Yeah. I mean as he went... I forget where that happened. |
| 2:45.0 | Greeny time. Oh yeah. He just went down. He was running to get those greeny and just like tripped over himself. |
| 2:54.0 | Now he asks me in the bathtub not to wash his hands. Really? Yeah. He's like not... not wash hands. |
| 3:02.0 | I was like, do you want me to wash your hair? Yeah, but not hands. Why? |
| 3:06.0 | I was like, okay, how about I wash your arms, your legs, your butt, your tummy, back your neck, your ears, your hair. |
| 3:18.0 | But not my hands. This is but not hands. What do you think that's about? |
| 3:24.0 | I think he's just annoyed by the hand washing process at dinner. Oh. |
