I should look at the sit down places at lunch and take note
Oh yeah - I meant sit-down places. The cheap take-out places I usually go seem about the same. But we've had a few birthdays lately and places that used to be crowded have been able to seat us (parties of 6ish) right away.
bt, stay safe! I've got a friend living in Melbourne right now, I just hope she's staying safe, too.
I can't say as I've noticed more store closures than normal. The local malls seem to have the average number of empty storefronts at any time, one closes, another opens. I haven't been up State Street lately, though; that's where all the indie boutique stores are and I think that would be a better indicator of the economy than the malls. My anecdata is clearly lacking.
The Angel of Doom just visited me: My Girl Scout cookies arrived.
Uh oh. Mine should be coming soon then. I think they are going to Vegas with us.
Happy Birthday, Suzi!!!

my office is freezing. wish I had fingerless gloves.
I am starting 1 salad/day today - hoping to go for at least 2 weeks.
I had a salad for lunch!
I think I went off bread for Lent last year (and kind of mostly did it), and maybe I'll do it again this year. A salad for lunch is a good thing, anyway.
a quick but unscientific survey of my friends is finding that people are seeing crowded retail and restaurants at every turn.
This has been my experience. Sure, we live in a bubble here in the cradle of democracy but there seems to be no slow down at all, even in the 'burbs.
