The grid was challenging for me, but the meta mechanism clicked into place pretty quickly and I'm definitely on *a* shore (hopefully the right one).
It's a little early for a beer, but a kombucha sounds great while I await the Zoom call.

Good morning muggles
First welcome to our newest muggle MonsieurLeblanc - great to have more muggles
And we have a mob scene on the beach with 159 there. And we have a special section for those of us who have Covid or Covid like symptoms but test negative. It is screwing up my golf schedule.
And given that the MGWCC has been delayed to tomorrow and we have so many rapid solvers, I recommend all the metas on the
"Other Meta Crossword Puzzles"
And note on your calendar that the CCCC (Contest Crosswords Combating Cancer) is going to preview on April 30. A very worthy cause and knowing the creator, they should be great metas.

“Even Barney got it” = code for r̶e̶d̶a̶c̶t̶e̶d̶
Might be next-level r̶e̶d̶a̶c̶t̶e̶d̶ to be honest

Sorry for the Muggles with the buggle. I got it in November, not fun, 10-day Paxlovid helped.
Just got bivalent vaccination a couple of weeks ago.
Year 4, who’da thunk.

Struggle with the Grid then tried to do some usual things with the solve to no avail. Finally it appeared! Pretty sure I'm ashore.
NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

Confident that I'm ashore, but still looking for the confirmatory "click."

Better say it quickly before I end up on page 20A:
Ashore.
I'll have Bombay. Make it a triple.

For nudges, feel free to PM me. I won't have a clue how to help you, but you might shove me ashore.

On the beach while traveling across these last two weeks visiting our kids across the country. Tough to do on a laptop.
Very clever construction on this one.
Always love visiting Chicago with all the spring tulips and flowers blooming!
