Quarantine 2020 - Day 3

No fever news to report, thank God, so our magic number is 11.  Also, no even semi-puncturings of our protective bubble today.  The closest we got to other people was taking a walk over to the middle school basketball courts and passing a dad with his toddler daughter wandering aimlessly in a field, leaving about a 20 foot distance between us.  They seemed nice, but I guess we'll never know.

Today was "Lucky Day" (the day between James and Erica's birthdays, as decided by James).  We celebrated it by building a sofa cushion fort and then watching Juliet destroy it to the strains of Mylee Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball."   Other fun time-wasting activities: building legos, eating yesterday's pumpkin pie, um...putzing around the house, uh... Juliet has adopted this cute little habit of bringing her coat and hat to you indicate she wants to go out and swing on the playset.  Let's see...what else?  James got to play video games for the first time yesterday, and today was very proud to have gotten all the way to Level 3 of Sonic the Chipmunk, so there's that. 

Pre-St. Patty's baby

Tomorrow is Erica's 40th birthday.  On her 30th, we had an insane night of flip cup at Bridget's old apartment.  Tomorrow is unlikely to feature the same.  She'll get a few presents, and will get to choose the evening movie.  Maybe she'll want to play a game of Carcasonne or Uno? 

If the tenor is this blog entry isn't to your liking, perhaps tune in tomorrow for a report on Erica's birthday, which should feature something in the way of news.  If you're reading this today, please stay in.  Don't go outside.  Don't go near anyone else.  Write a song.  Read a novel.  Pander to small children and their strange and infeasible ideas. 

Stay clean!
