It is being sanitized


Are you sure that's not "satanized"?

We still wouldn't eat inside but that is just us.


Nor would we. In fact, other than to buy groceries or walk about a bit, we don't leave the house.

This classical theme has been driving me crazy for a few years - I couldn't figure out what it was from. The "Miss Marple" theme from the BBC  (the series with Joan Hixon and Julia McKenzie) is reminiscent of it. In any case, I couldn't place it. It appeared again in last night's Glenn Gould documentary. Well, I finally figured out what it is: the opening theme from Schubert's Eighth Symphony. What a joyous theme!

Yes. That theme is a joy.

Got word today that they had to close the children’s developmental center at church today because a worker tested positive for covid. The worker had not been there yesterday and tested negative last week, so they’re optimistic that none of the kids were exposed. But time will tell.

DR vixmom, how was Texas Roadhouse in regard to social distancing, etc.? Wow, I haven't been there in forever now. Have to do something about that.


Very good, they take your cell # and have you wait in your car and text you when your table is ready.

They are seating in such a way that the booths in front, behind and next to you are empty

All employees are wearing masks, properly. And guests may only remove their masks when they are at table

It sounds like they are taking excellent precautions.  We still wouldn't eat inside but that is just us.

This sounds sort of like what they were doing here this summer before the restaurants had to close again at the end of September when we went into the red zone. :(

My parents went a bunch of times on outdoor terraces, one time inside, and for pizza every week at an indoor small mall with few people.  But I agree with DR Jane I just wasn't comfortable doing the indoor.

The few regular places that I go have distanced seating and very few tables, in general.  But, I haven't felt uncomfortable.  I also don't crowd around or with other people or go to very crowded places.

Here's another video, this one from Scrooge, on how I feel about the results of the recent election. ;D

(And my thought is that Scrooge represents tRumps's presidency, not trump himself...because he's not dead, just his presidency. ;) )

And now, I need to leave work and go home.  Tomorrow's Veteran's Day, so no work!

Be back later.

Just read a 130 pages or so in my middling Maugham novel, Catalina. I have 100 pages to. Maybe tomorrow. It’s set during the Inquisition (nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition) and it’s all arch.

Fell asleep for an hour, did some work on the Kritzerland show, and then did a Gelson's run and have stuff here now to make for a few days, including a Wolfgang Puck Caesar for tomorrow.

I still receive emails from my Ashland hiking group about the weekly hikes.  According to my recent email the church this group is part of has requested members to avoid gatherings, even when wearing masks, for the next 2 weeks.
