Returning to work and whatnot

Welp.  Another staycation come and gone.  Here are a few random thoughts.

This week, we saw Itsabit move into the house with us.  It's been an easier than expected transition.  She took the litter box like a pro.  Aside from a bit of confusion at night, where she meowed for attention, she's done great.  The past couple of nights she's crawled up onto the couch to watch TV with me.  She rather liked Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, but was bored by Match Game last night.

This vacation one wasn't originally marked as a staycation.  If everything had gone according to plan, I'd have gone to Atlanta with this one (I originally thought this was earmarked for a potential trip to New Jersey, and I may have been wrong about that, or maybe even both had been planned).  If everything had gone according to plan, the Braves and Cubs would have played this past weekend, right before we headed into the All Star Break.

I'm not terribly optimistic that we'll get even a 60 game season, but if that goes according to plan, the season starts in 11 days for the Cubs.  I like their chances over a short season.

The Barnes & Noble Criterion sale started Friday.  Had thought about wandering down, but ended up just ordering online.  Interested in War of the Worlds and Spike Lee's Bamboozled, which just had Criterion releases. 

Tired of the Coronavirus.  Tired of people.  Had hoped we'd be past it at this point, but apparently not.  Turns out a former neighbor is one of the folks locally who passed, when it got into the LifeCare retirement center.  So, to those who say "Well how come nobody you know has it?"  I'm one of the ones who knew somebody (3 somebodies actually), and actually knew a body who passed.

Mostly tired of the arguments about it.
