Quarantine musings

Things to think about while in lockdown (for week 28)

 

I love this scam.  Underage teenagers are putting on gray wigs, wearing masks, and liquor stores are selling them booze.

 

Note to Postmate drivers:  If you’re making a delivery for me but stop off somewhere else first for fifteen minutes, so my food gets cold, that gets reflected in your tip. 

 

I miss restaurants, but not enough to eat in one. 

 

Seriously.  How hard is it to wear a mask?

 

CHEERS premiered 38 years ago this month. Stay tuned for a podcast episode all about that. 

 

Who besides me has had a screwed up sleep pattern since March?   Although, to be fair, I haven’t slept well since 2016. 

 

Not to take anything away from SCHITT’S CREEK, but if there weren’t the pandemic and people didn’t have all this time on their hands to sample it and watch the whole series, do you think it still would have won all those Emmys?  

 

I'm sure one reason people watch SCHITT'S CREEK is so they don't have to watch the news.  

 

When you get takeout food, and you’re eating it out of Styrofoam and it’s already starting to congeal, that’s two meals a day every day for ten months if you’re in a writers room.    Oh boy!  Italian again. 

 

If a UPS truck passes by the house and doesn’t stop I take it personally now. 

 

The San Diego Padres finally put together a fantastic year and none of their long-suffering fans can watch them in person. 

 

Are you still hoarding toilet paper? 

 

The new rage is Zoom readings of classic sitcoms like GOLDEN GIRLS and FRIENDS with diverse casts.  If Denzel Washington is reading this – BIG WAVE DAVE’S is available.

 

And to think – so much of this could have been avoided.  SHOULD have been avoided. VOTE!
