I'm Starting to See The Shoe Dropping...
By Daddy
Las Vegas — I went to pickup medications today and I'm starting to see obvious signs of "The Other Shoe Dropping." The crowds are smaller, items are starting to remain on the shelves longer and subtle signs that people are starting to take the novel coronavirus seriously. Lots of face masks, Lots of people with gloves on, and a surprising number of people packing. I'll probably start doing likewise in a couple weeks.
There are bright blue signs in front of the pharmacy saying: "Please Wait Here" precisely six feet apart and other signs that say: "Due to the coronavirus we're no longer using reusable shopping bags." My mailbox place is closing in 30 days due to lack of funds, The parent company is doing nothing. Since that is one of my primary protections of privacy, I'm not sure what I'll be doing.
Las Vegas is mostly fueled by tourists, and most of the casinos have gone dark. It's sobering to drive by "The Orleans" which is the closest casino and see the block sized building shutdown. Over the next couple of weeks it's going to get pretty grim.
I scored a whole chicken at 64¢/pound so I'll be roasting that this weekend which in turn means I'll be able to make chicken stock which will be the base for my chicken noodle soup later in the week.
I'm still sheltering in place and currently binge watching "Person of Interest," which is riveting and has compelling plots. If you are into tall, dark, and handsome this is a stoic man for you.
