Earlier this morning I was in a market that includes several Amish/Mennonite businesses. Almost all the workers had bare noses, which is par for the course with them. Numerous shoppers either had bare noses or were wearing their masks as chin straps. I really want to punch people sometimes.

Also, old guys are more likely to pull down their masks when they speak. We regularly point out to these gentlemen that we can hear them just fine through their mask.

I watched a lady at the grocery store this week pull down her mask to cough.

The city's numbers are climbing noticeably thanks to more indoor gatherings and "precaution fatigue." Last weekend I was sitting outside at my local. A lot of young people are sick of precautions. One 20-something poobah went inside for a few minutes to use the bathroom or ATM or something. When she came out she yanked off her mask and complained to her friend that it makes her feel like she's suffocating. I said aloud "Imagine what a ventilator is like," though she didn't hear me.

Imagine what it would be like if we just 'opened everything up'.

This morning a guy on the bus had his down. I was well away from him.

A friend of mine is throwing a halloween party, and although I loved his last one I will not be attending this one. I hope he cancels, for everyone's sake.
In fact if I can't find a smaller and quieter physical therapy office than the one I'm using now I'm going to cut back my PT visits drastically, just do my best from home.

I comfort myself with the notion that there's less aerosol in nose breath. I'm probably wrong.

I just made a post and got a message that it contained characters not allowed or something. It did not have any bad words as far as I know and I can't find it. ??

How exciting! Can you recall anything about it that was controversial?
