That's me (in 2 of those pictures below), and I really did look like that, and I walked around like that all day. My daughter Sarah, and I, went shopping together, and we just wanted to get what we needed - and then get out of the pharmacy & grocery stores, mainly because of the coronavirus. In our travels to two stores, and a pharmacy, I saw, only, one other person with a surgical mask on. They didn't have it over their face - it was hanging off their ears, and under their jaw. And that person was being quite the social butterfly. The face mask seemed to be a conversation starter, for the person wearing the mask, but not for me. In my case, people were quickly moving away from me: however, in the last grocery store, just when I thought that I'd made it through unscathed- this happened: The a cashier said (out loud & to nobody in particular, " Hey, look it's "Michael" - back from the dead!", to which I quickly replied, "Thanks! Michael Jackson was a great artist, but it wasn't my intention to look like him, I'm at high risk for the coronavirus." The cashier embarrassingly said, "M'am, I am so sorry!" And then, that same person called over a co-worker (not even a heartbeat later), and said to them- "It's Michael! Right?", while pointing at me. My daughter was nowhere to be seen, still browsing around the store, so I just stood there, in the checkout line - alone, with the line behind me way-way long (by now), and 8 feet back- away from me. The co-worker stood motionless, just staring at me, like I was a human magic eye stereogram. After what seemed like a really long time, the co-worker's face lit up like a Christmas tree, as they exclaimed, "Oh yeah - now I see it!"
Surprisingly, nothing anyone said, or didn't say to me, mattered. And I'm probably going to wear the same headgear the next time I'm out. In fact, until there's a vaccine, or no longer a pandemic, I will probably be wearing more antivirus protective gear - in the near future.

🍸It's Quarantini time, and "Quarantini Time", is a reference to the coronavirus quarantine statewide order. You can read more about that here: https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/19/health/shelter-in-place-isolation-quarantine-definition/index.html A "Quarantini" is a drink "... like a martini, but you drink it all by yourself on the couch watching coronavirus updates...." Maybe I should just walk around in a, Bigfoot, hazmat suit - like a Mrs. Bigfoot. 😷 Seriously though, if you’re going to drink, then drink responsibly. And- if you think that you, or someone you love, may have a drinking problem- then talk to somebody about it. Al-Anon (Alcohol Drug Treatment Center for families) has Electronic Meetings. Here is the "Al-Anon Phone Meetings”, worldwide, list (with phone numbers): https://al-anon.org/al-anon-meetings/electronic-meetings/#Phone_Meetings HERE: Here is the Al- Anon website: al-anon.org/ AND HERE is A.A.'s "Daily Reflection", page: https://www.aa.org/pages/en_US/daily-reflection
