I do hate everyone being behind a mask. Not much fun going in for medical stuff when you can't get a seen smile from the staff and they can't see you smile.
That's when you know if they're really smiling or just humoring you. Real smiles are reflected in the eyes. :D

Not directed at you, just made me think. It has to be a rough time for the dating scene out there. Cant really see the person and tell their facial expressions. Hard to tell if you are physically attracted to them or not. Not that looks are 100%, but you have to find them at least attractive to yourself.


Around the third date,used to be things got friendlier, is that now either taking off your mask when together or not being 6 feet apart?

Side note, senior daughter just complained about no school but not having snow days. In the past seniors loved snow days since they rarely made them up, now it’s online stuff.
 
I swear they think I am logged into every single system 24x7 and monitoring everything that goes on simultaneously.
I just got asked about if something was done on Oct 12

You can see a smile just watching their eyes. You're probably scaring them, Ringo.

You need to ask for a limit to the hours you need to work. Tell them at least every other weekend or such to get your sanity back. Actually don't ask for a limit, I would suggest you tell them a limit.
 
My daughter's soccer team scrimmaged a boys team last night.

The boys spent most of the scrimmage trying to impress the girls with their skills and trying to nutmeg (kicking the ball between another player's legs) them.

Meanwhile, the girls spent most of the scrimmage shoving the boys down and laughing with each other about it.

On the car ride home, my daughter was cracking up and goes "Did you see me knock that number 10 to the ground?" <laughs> "I felt bad because he was kinda cute, but there was already a number 10 on the field."

Yeah, my daughter wears #10.

Contacted a couple of peeps listed on Craigie List as buyers of old army stuff. Going through stuff here and have a World War I ammo belt (1918 mint unissued), denim barracks bag (used by Boxster as laundry bag at ISU), Vietnam era rain poncho (cousin's from that war) and (maybe) my dad's Army duffle. No idea where that WWI ammo belt came from but it is twice as nice as anything I've seen on eBay. Got some idea what these are worth and expecting to get super low balled by these guys but thought it was worth asking them.

Never had that one before. Maybe the label got marred up enough to become unreadable.
