I went to the supermarket twice today. The first time with Matt, who is having truck trouble.Upscale, yuppie store. Most people wearing masks except for men older than 60. I don't think a single older man was wearing one. A topic for anthropologists to study. Or psychologists.
The second store was the usual one in my neighborhood. I went to buy gift cards for the non-profit staff members being laid off (they will make enough on unemployment to match their part time salaries). There I saw less interest in basic common sense. The woman with three kids, none wearing masks. The little girl who gave me a weird look. The people who can't follow the directional signs. The people TOUCHING things. That isn't appropriate.
I'm back at home safe and sound. I made vanilla pudding, shared it with Doug and Birdy. Chatted with Matt on the phone. Having a salad with 1000 Island dressing (my favorite). Watching some British teenager tv show.
