It's Thursday. You remember that one of the basics of this blog is to remind us what day it is. Because it gets tough. And, if you don't know what day it is, you're not any better off than my stupid cat, which has no clue. (cut to vacant look)
It's Thursday.
It's also The British Are Coming! day -- the day of Lexington and Concord. No, not the street junction in New York City, but the beginning of the Revolutionary War.
But that's not the big news here! No! Instead there was an email from Starbucks, telling us they were opening some stores. Yeah, rah! Then you can check your zip code and lo and behold! "our" Starbucks was open!!!
I was the sixth car in line when I got there (you didn't think we were going to let this slide past without taking advantage?!?!). One quarantinee needed caffeine, one needed...well, I'm not sure what you need if you order guava lemonade, and one needed a way to get chocolate without being too obvious.
We never knew why they closed -- they were open after the quarantine started, but maybe it had to do with the extra level of "Stay At Home" at some point.
But why are they open now, then?
I don't know.
These things are strange.
But we have Starbucks!
A sign civilization might return someday.
(Amazingly, wine keeps arriving in heavy boxes, so that's not a problem and, I suppose, a sign that civilization in some way is still out there).
Today's excitement is *Who Wants to Be a Millionaire* is on "live" tonight (ROFL ROFL ROFL) with Anthony Anderson, from Blackish most recently, the first contestant trying to win a million for their favorite charity. I guess Anthony has won a bunch of money doing this before, so there's hope.
It's at least live entertainment.
Enjoy. I don't know what tomorrow brings. Oh, yeah, I'm supposed to play golf. How you do it in the age of covid? Wear a mask and steal a few pars? Look forward to more, similar humor tomorrow. 😂
