Midnight
Sunday. A pretty good night's rest to awaken before six and listen to CounterSpin and TUC Radio before getting up and getting ready to drive to the Lakeshore ATM and then on to breakfast. I say I listened to those radio programs, but maybe half listened being half awake would be more accurate as I find it difficult to recall what was said.
One comment I do remember though struck me hard: “everyone now lives in a world where they are afraid to walk within a mile of their residence after dark”.
Arrived at the restaurant to park in front, enter, note the outside tables were in place and, although it was cold out there, decided to sit on the patio at my usual place. Still concerned about this coronavirus mess.
Ordered the plain waffle with sliced bananas and strawberries, fruit cup and coffee again, finishing up by nine having hurried through reading the N.Y. Times and East Bay Times feeling as if it might become a race to the bathroom when I got home if I didn't finish right then.
Took the selfie in the lobby and settled in at the computer after a bathroom visit. Ended up not running a race, as it happens, but best to be careful in remembering the past.
Do you really need to mention that stuff?
I guess yes. Anyway, with so few pictures taken on the way home, finished up with this by ten-thirty on what's going to be another sunny day, the weather people saying into the mid-sixties later.
Later. Watched some of the Honda Classic golf tournament on the tablet, watched way too much of a Netflix series lying on the bed, listened to the usual news programs and that's been about it for another afternoon. Sunny outside, music coming up from the pergola area down by the lake and feeling the walls closing in a bit more than usual now that we've entered spring.
Evening. To bed after eight, lights out right at ten after finishing up watching a series on the tablet of and so chiding myself for not stopping the tablet until so late. Is this going to cause me to be wide awake until well after midnight?
