This weekend has reminded me how much I really don't like people and crowds.

The thing that is going to kill me the rest of the year is that SO many people have spent the last year just absolutely jonesin' for travel and events, which means that travel costs are going to be through the roof and EVERYWHERE will be crowded.

I might end up hating that even more than lockdown.


Spent this past weekend up in your neck of the woods, or close enough – Huntington/Newport Beach.

Masks largely unworn, not only across the very crowded beaches and shorefront commerce, where you probably don’t need them as much, but businesses in general weren’t really enforcing the usual health precautions. The highly foot-trafficked bars in Newport near the pier were particularly care free. Lots of Millennials and Gen Z’ers standing in line wearing masks to make sure security didn’t have reason to delay or deny them. Inside though everything was 100% capacity with no mask or distancing enforcement. The younger people really don’t give a crap anymore.

I will say this though - when a midnight brawl erupted at a shorefront donut shop several bros put on their masks rather than ripping off their t-shirts before jumping into the fray. Probably had more to do with hiding their faces before showing up brawling in two dozen different TikTok streams.

About half the places we dined in DC took contact information for later contact tracing if needed.

Several were only open for outdoor dining, and some were just closed period.

May be an image of drink and text that says 'A top German doctor recommends whiskey to protect against COVID-19 While the World Health Organization vehemently disagrees, Dr. Juergen Rissland, a lead doctor at the Institute for Virology at Saarland University Hospital in Germany, went on the record to say: drinking whiskey can protect against COVID-19.'

There are a lot more old drunks than old doctors, so I guess we better have another round...

Rates in Georgia are holding steady for now, which I view as a "win" overall.

I was musing about how bad things looked a year ago or so, and how we survived this nationally better than many expected back when, though the death toll ended quite a bit higher than many predicted.  I feared that our distribution system would fail.

I signed up for my first Pfizer shot.  Tomorrow after work at my pharmacy.

I could get in this afternoon, but I'm going to the golf course, instead.  75 and sunny!
