Shower Thoughts: Last night my friend asked to use a USB port to charge his cigarette, but I was using it to charge my book. The future is stupid.
Happy Friday everyone! Oh wait, IS IT Friday? I’m not sure. Let’s see- Traffic looks like a Sunday afternoon, every day feels like a Saturday, kinda, but sometimes the grocery stores are busy like it is Thanksgiving. Hmmmm… I’m not sure. What does it feel like for you? At times, especially last week, it felt like floating in jello, honestly. Existence is vague and with little reference of location and time. My clock and calendars are handrails along a dark trail.
This is me in my car last week, getting ready to deliver some supplies to a high-risk tenant. I’m still working *knock on wood* and happy to help folks. I haven’t had more than a sore throat since last December, and I chalked that up to the pollen count. However, on Monday I have a video appointment with my personal doctor and hopefully, it will result in testing.
Whatcom County in Washington State is offering very little testing opportunities. An acquaintance of mine was tested about 8 days ago and laughed telling me about it. He said it felt like a drug deal. His doctor gave him directions and an address where he met two ladies, dressed head to toe in PPE, working out of an unmarked van in an alley downtown. He was their ONLY customer. I’m not aware of any mass testing operation happening in Washington like I see in California, where folks are qued up in mile-long lines perhaps at a stadium parking lot. Of course, testing and re-testing will help our nation determine if the lockdown is working. HAHAHAAAAA! …but it is not happening.
The Federal Government, State, and Local appear to be completely discombobulated. Our ‘effin president basically confessed to offering more Federal aid and services to the Republican States AND (sweet Lord) wants scientists to look into UV and disinfectant injections to kill the virus INSIDE US!—??? Another WTF moment. EVERY DAY is a WTF moment with this administration. Unbelievable.
My current mood in meme form. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Hit “like” to let me know you were here. Wishing you good health. -Shannon
