Visiting family in California and seeing the upcoming matching shot requirements for entering US but limited booster access in Nova Scotia, I went into the local CVS and got myself an extra shot.

There was only minor paperwork confusion and now I'm a Pfizer-Moderna-Moderna guy.
My guess is this is probably unnecessary, as various governments will probably figure things out eventually, but it was no big deal to get and now I'm good for whatever.

Vax rates here are really low (57%) so they have lots of extra and they're happy to give them out.
Update: third dose Moderna will still kick your ass after about 12 hours - you'll want to clear the following day, or at least not schedule anything strenuous
My immune system right now though:

Update: rested and napped in the morning and now it's been about 24 hours since the shot and I'm feeling mostly fine
Further update: feeling feverish again and went back to bed for a bit. I'm realizing it's probably due to the Tylenol I had around 6am wearing off. Well there's an easy way to fix that!
Interestingly my Instagram feed started showing up with ads for drugs to help get through the day-after-covid-shot - even though I never mentioned anything about it on Facebook or Instagram.

I think IG knows my Twitter anyhow, or maybe ad networks are cross-tracking

So #HFXBurgerWeek is starting tomorrow, and I haven't gotten around to making my unofficial fast-find burger listing web page yet. Well, I've got some time now and I should be able to punk rock this thing together in about an hour. Follow along in this thread! (Or mute me)
Here's the burger lineup in the official site:

burgerweek.co/burger-lineup/

Big delicious pictures, some search tools - but if you just want to find a burger quickly on your phone, it's a bit clunky. You have to tap to see details. Devtools says it's 176 files and nearly 8 megabytes ImageImage
I'm not blaming The Coast for their website - it has many jobs to do for many different stakeholders - but I like fast simple lookup tools over big splashy sites. In fact this year's version seems a bit more svelte than before. Still, I'm going to make my own much lighter version
