So, sitting alone at home. Not afraid to go out, just not having to.
The good news is, I haven’t bought gas in … heck, I don’t remember when I last bought gas. Because workplace is all scared of the virus thing and has me working remote, I don’t need to go outside for anything. Well, to get the mail.
I do get the mail, because even though it’s mostly junk that goes straight to the trash, if my car is under the carport, and the mail starts building up, the postal worker might tell someone to go check on me, so I clean out the USPS trash can and put everything in my trash can. So, I have a purpose in life, it seems.
Shower. Shave. (Yes, still shaving.) Eat. Work. Sleep. Watch some movies. Occasional run to the grocery store.
Is this what it’s like being retired? If so, I will only need something to fill the time that I’m currently spending on work and I’m set.
I could spend that time watching the news, I suppose. Well, no I can’t since I dropped cable ten years ago. Which I still don’t miss. And don’t want to go back to. Ever.
Well, I still got some time to figure all that out. Unless during one of my trips to the grocery store, some virus-infected person shares with me and none of this really matters. We’ll cross that bridge if the road goes that way.
I don’t know what may come down the road, but for now, I really need a haircut.

I think a lot of retirees spend work time standing in their yards shaking their fists as passers by and demanding that they get off their lawn. I have a neighbor like that.
That’s an excellent idea. I think I’ll take little breaks during the day and go practice. The fist-shaking and yelling, not the yard work thing; I got a man that does that part.
Didn’t Clint use a gun for emphasis?
Yeah, Basil can totally pull off Clint moves. [eye roll]
Right but, Basil can.
As for watching news…I can’t take more than a few minutes right now. It’s all kung flu – 24-7. I can’t even listen to Rush.
Yes, that’s exactly what retirement is like. I barely even know there’s a pandemic.
