I would be very disappointed if things don't get relaxed any time soon. I mean, why the hell did all these people take the vaccines then? Where I live, we don't have lockdowns, but I'm very tired of wearing masks everywhere.

Just stop; I have for the past four months or so. I carry one with me and will put it on if requested like in a shop or public building (Increasingly no one asks.) And I voluntarily wear it in situations where it might actually help e.g. on the train. Other than that I conduct my life exactly as I did before the pandemic. It hasn’t affected my health or the health of anyone I know in the least.

I got vaccinated (well, I'm between shots, but whatever) as a reasonably healthy person in their 40s for 2 reasons: It makes me less likely to transmit the virus to other people, and because even though my risk of severe illness is low, the vaccines still reduce it.
I certainly expect restrictions to continue to relax. It is unfortunate that people didn't have a few more weeks patience, that along with higher vaccine uptake would have ended things sooner.

In California all restrictions except masks will be removed in June. So it’s coming. I think everything will be back to normal by September.
