Day 174

Okay, I'm done for the day. Except for exercising and showering. We got up hella early and went to the grocery store. Gotta say, not loving the old folks. Men with the nose penii hanging out. Women too. And so entitled. Shoving and pushing you out of the way. No social distancing at all. Not to mention you have to fight all the employees restocking everything as it's early. AND it's the first 10 days of the month so...yeah. But we got everything we needed and got outta there!

I had a dentist appointment today. First time I've been to an office of any kind since the pandemic/lockdown/quarantine started. Frankly, I wasn't worried as dentist's have been dealing with HIV protocol for years. The only difference during my appointment was the hygienist had me rinse my mouth with some peroxide-y stuff that foamed up. And she wore a shield OVER her already masked/eye shield glasses. They are really good. All is well with my toofus too! No summer teef fo' me! (You know that joke..."...they gots summer teef...sum er' here, sum er' there....") Bwahahaha.

So that's my story for today. I can hear the littles outside. Interesting, my hygienist lives in my neighborhood and her kids go to the school where I worked. She said both her kids teachers don't allow the kids outside for lunch recess. I'm guessing what I'm hearing is a class or two. There are teachers out there with them. But no social distancing, lots of screaming and no masks. Honestly? I'm guessing they are "older" teachers. They are the ones that seem to have the most trouble following the new rules. The know best, dontcha know? And, of course, not all are like that. But from my experience...yeah. The hygienist's kids have newer/younger teachers and are not allowing the kids out unless strictly supervised. Interesting, no?

Alright. Gonna go abide now. Maybe wash my hands, and face. ;)

2 What is the first historical event you clearly remember?
I clearly remember the gas crisis and the Watergate hearings. I was 12. I'm old enough to know other things, but I honestly think my mother shielded us from the "bad" stuff. I know about these because I was with my dad and stepmom.

7 Would you rather have unlimited sushi for life or unlimited tacos for life?
Ooo, that's a tough one. I love, love, love sushi! I don't make my own because it's really not something I want to. I do make my own tacos and I'm pretty picky about them. I'm gonna say sushi. But tacos....

31 Who is your favourite Mike?
I have a friend who I email every weekday. We started doing this to combat boredom during MAP testing when we both worked at the school district. She has a different job now and I'm at home, but we still email once a day. On Wednesdays we always title our subject line; "Mike!". You'd have to watch the Geico Hump Day Camel commercial to get it. It makes us laugh and that's all that really matters. So she's my favorite Mike!!

29 Would you rather live in a tree-house or a bouncy castle?
Oh a tree house! But it has to have a bathroom right there, not downstairs or far away. Just sayin'. Of course....*ponders*...a bouncy castle would be soft to sleep on...but no. Tree house!

26 What's the most un-breakfasty food you've ever had for breakfast?
I would say cold pizza and cold milk, but I think leftover pizza is pretty common. How about cold tacos and cold milk? Yum.

27 If you had to have a tail, would you prefer one like a rabbit, a monkey or a donkey?
If I wanted it to be inconspicuous, I'd go with rabbit. If I wanted it to be useful, I'd go with monkey. If I wanted it to be ornamental, donkey!
