Look, if I tell you "please allow through 6/22" for a thing, it's really going to annoy me if you ask for an update on the thing on 6/19 and I'm not going to tell you anything except to wait another few days.
Jimmy Olsen jokes're pretty much gonna be lost on you, huh?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I had an anxiety attack yesterday, first time in almost 3 months. What the heck, brain. Everything is fine, you know besides the ongoing pandemic.
Today I'm exhausted and trying to keep my spirits up. Katie got a new position that's closer to where she lives and pays a little better; she says it wouldn't keep her in Seattle but with the pandemic she's afraid if she moves here now she wouldn't be able to get a job. So our plans are on hold indefinitely - until there's a vaccine or at least testing available for non-symptomatic people. We don't like it. We hate being stuck in the middle of something that can't move forward. We hate that she can't be here yet.

Yeah, that sucks, Zen.
Anxiety attacks also not fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, Zen, sorry about that.
Y'all, I went to the beach and now feel amazing.

You made so much vitamin D!

Oh Chris I'm jealous. They've opened some farmers markets here but not the one near me.

Our farmers markets are open, too, and the one near me is super hard core about safety. It's great.

Yay beach!
Grocery store was fine. I guess they are not doing the one way aisles in this store, but it was sparsely populated enough that I never had to squeeze past anyone anyway. Spent almost double what I had planned to, not sure how that happened but it is assuredly my fault. that is one thing ordering for pickup/delivery saved me from, although the "personal shopper" fees kinda made up for it...
Very few people not in masks either in the store or visible outside, so that's nice.

Compared with previous weeks, the number of people wearing masks at Trader Joe's today had dropped. That makes me sad. And angry.

Because books.
Everyone is still generally very compliant here, and most stores still won't let you in if you don't have a mask on. That said, we're apparently going green on June 26, which means indoor dining will be back, at 50% capacity. But it's a small bakery. There's no way to keep anyone too far apart.
