Tongue in Cheek...Friday Night Date Night For One

Want to Know What Heroes Look Like

So today was productive in some ways...after the great refrigerator debacle, and the deconstruction necessary to move things out of the way to move the old frig out, and put two small temporary units in, a big part of my day was spent putting everything back together, dusting, cleaning, vacuuming and doing dishes, feel like I should be given the "Good Housekeeping" seal of approval for my apartment.   I'm serious, for a guys place, its looking pretty SNAZZY.

This afternoon went for a bit of a walk...was simply too beautiful not to.   Temperatures were in the mid sixties, not a cloud in the sky, and the Magnolia tree down the street is in full bloom, so the smells...OH THE SMELL of Spring.   Simply stated it gave me hope that we are all going to get through this, and life will be OK when we reach the other end of this Pandemic.  Watching the late afternoon White House presser was a buzz kill mainly because Donald J Trump (not my president, and will never refer to him as such) is such a moronic Josef Mengele like vile man child...too harsh, or is my tone just about right?

So, it is Friday night, all the bars and restaurants are closed, and I guess you could say I am having a date for one with myself...at least I like the company most of the time.   Had left over pizza earlier for dinner, washed all the dishes and now sitting hear listening to the Stones on my Google Home, sipping a bold red wine and even put flame to a candle so that I could turn the lights down and just chill for a couple hours before shutting things down and finding sleep...or not.   In this very frightening time, sleep is not so easy to come by, and too often when found nightmares come for a visit in the middle of the night, so a no win there sometimes.

Things are getting very scary...just in a bit ago on CNN...America's positive tests for the Corona Virus have just topped 100,000 nearly twice that of China, so sure Trump loves us being NUMBER ONE in something.   I think it is only a matter of time before our number of deaths also is the highest in the world.   Going to get very ugly in Florida and New Orleans in the next week to ten days, and Governor Cuomo says we are still 4-6 weeks from hitting peak infection here in New York.

I need to write this journal entries earlier in the day...a part of me wants to write more, go into some of my thoughts on all this, but the other side just wants to enjoy the tunes, sip my wine and let this all go for the evening...guess which wins.

Good Night All.
