Weird Days

It's so weird.

It's so weird that we can't see our friends.

It's so weird that our libraries are closed.

It's so weird that on a Sunday afternoon one says, "Do we have a hoops game to listen to . . . oh wait."

It's so weird that this is really just the beginning of it all.

It's so weird.

But what isn't weird and what isn't changing is we have today. We have this. We have this bizarre new reality and we have . . .

. . . an avocado . . .

. . . although we no longer have that . . .

. . . because we ate it.

. . . and we have leftie pizza . . .

. . . although we no longer have that . . .

. . . because we ate it.

But we do have .  . . . . . .  .

. . . books
. . . and audio books
. . . and streaming movies and shows
. . . and wine
. . . plenty of wine
. . . (I hope)
. . . and arugula
. . . so much arugla

. . . okay maybe I did not buy enough TP. Maybe I didn't, during this Great TP Crisis of 2020. Maybe I'll be the chump standing on the side of the road holding out bags of arugula in the hope of trading it out for toidy papes . . .

. . . but in the meantime . . . 

. . . did you go outside yesterday?

Because what we *do* have  .. . . 


 . . . is early Spring.

 People, we have daffs.

So Happy Early Spring, everybody.

Please please take care of yourselves.
