Last night she was coughing in a manner my asleep brain read as "gross", so unconsciously noped the fuck out of there and slept on the sofa. I can't believe my non-awake brain got it.

She tested positive a few hours ago, so now I just have 7 days to worry. I probably have it, I feel a bit off already.

I know that it's more than most people, but she was wearing low quality masks, going to a non-safe dentist at peak times, and avoiding the booster. I've been nicely pushing her for years, and she brings this shit home. She's also sorry, and I say it's fine because I want her to feel better and recover, but secretly I'm fucking raging.

Sorry to rant. Better on Hexbear than out loud.

    N95s are extremely uncomfortable to wear. If you wear glasses they're pretty much impossible to wear.

    I wear glasses, and I prefer N95s because my glasses don't fog up like they did when I wore KN95s. N95s are also don't hurt my ears like KN95s do.

    N95s are more likely to mess up your hair, though

      I guess it depends a lot on your face and nose bridge geometry

      I have fog issues with all masks, but N95s are painful to wear unless I take my glasses off

          Yes, the 3m Auras I've tried tend to not stay on my face very well, unless I don't move my face at all. The honeywells I use stay put, espcially on the nose bridge area, and are less expensive.

          If your glasses fog up then the n95 is probably not fitting that tight. The good n95's usually have an adjustable nose wire with foam padding that should help keep your breath from escaping through the top of the mask and fogging up glasses.
