Isolation Diary: Here I am again. Spectrum techie fiddled with the cable and switched out some hardware and …hello.

And none of the problem was my fault! In the 4 days I have been absent 2 nice things happened worth mentioning. One: the Saturday night D & D session was held with the 3 adventurers (me, Jessie, Duncan) at Jessie’s house as I had no internet, Maggie the DM at her house. Great fun having the adventurers all together. Second: On Saturday I took a walk to Larchmont Blvd. to pick up some pre-paid coffee beans from Peet’s. I left the house with just my little pocket sized bag for my phone, and I added my ID and a CC, you know, just in case. Just starting my walk I found my next door neighbors of many years out in front of their house. I hadn’t seen them in weeks. Actually I was getting concerned. So I was happy to see them and took out my phone to shut off the podcast I was listening to so we could have a chat. Done, all good, off to Larchmont, got the coffee, walked back. Gone maybe half an hour or 40 minutes. I live in a residential area, single family homes and multi-family buildings of various sizes all mixed up. Across the street from me is a Rosicrucian meeting house, usually only open on the weekends. On the next corner, a short block away is a library. So on the weekend there is significant sidewalk activity. But not now in covid times. So when I approached my house I found my credit card lying undisturbed on the sidewalk where it had fallen, I’m guessing, when I pulled my phone out of my little bag to silence it so I could talk to my neighbors. Totally inappropriate to thank covid19. Still, it is so nice when something that could have been bad doesn’t happen.
