OK, just wanted to check in. It has been a little bit. My garage | |
has been tranformed quite a bit. I have been spending more time in | |
here for work and down time. The clutter is more manageable and th | |
workflows more efficient between garage office, music creation spac | |
music enjoyment space, workbench task space, etc. | |
Today I took my guitar to the park to practice and there was this | |
chick taking pictures in the park. She was dressed in all black | |
and wanted to take my picture. I thought that it was strange that | |
she was dressed in all black in the park since it was getting quite | |
warm. Then again, I used to dress like that. She was probably an | |
art student or something. It was nice to have contact with a | |
stranger, which I usually did not have even pre-COVID-19. People | |
here can be very suspicious and do not want to engage in small talk | |
with strangers. I learned the hard way when I moved out here, but | |
that's a different story. | |
The chick had no mask on, like some of the other people in the park | |
I guess it is optional for some people, kinda like using turn signa | |
For me, I had full on camo cap with head covering zippered into the | |
cap that covers my whole head and neck. There is a place for eyes | |
but I had them covered with cop sunglasses. This has been my publi | |
face since COVID-19. | |
I do notice the people without masks. I'd say about 50% of the | |
people in the park I encounter do not have masks. Masks are | |
supposedly a requirement, but I guess they won't comply unless | |
they see that it is enforced. Well, I know for myself that I am | |
part of the "high risk" demographic, so I try to take care of mysel | |
and do what I can. | |
Kinda funny...the geek that I am, I had air conditioning in this | |
head covering setup. Last summer (?) I had picked up this neck fan | |
thing since my body doesn't regulate temperature like it used to... | |
to the point of heat stroke :( So I have been more careful with | |
regulating my body temperature. Since it was in the 80's I brought | |
out the neck fan and cooling towel. All of this can fit under the | |
head covering. I thought it was pretty cool (pun intended.) I can | |
even go hiking and do nordic walking when it is 80-90F with the | |
whole setup. Looking forward to doing more in the park in the days | |
to come. | |
