I spent Tuesday and Wednesday nights with ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
adrian_turtle: we had a good time, and were definitely more relaxed now than when we saw each other for the first time in three months.
We're not back to "normal," of course, though Massachusetts plans to move to phase 3 of reopening next week. But I'm feeling a bit steadier, from having back bits of ordinary life like Adrian reading another episode of Tremontaine, or asking me to please deal with lunch.
The Robbins Library emailed this morning inviting me to schedule a time for contactless pickup of a book I have on hold. I'd hoped to do that on my way home, but the earliest time they were offering was on the morning of June 6th. (That's the Arlington Library, and is more convenient for me than the Belmont one.) When I do get it, this will be my first hardcopy library book in months. (Fortunately, the King County Library System has a lot of ebooks, and hasn't yet noticed that I no longer live in Washington.)
I took the bus home anyhow, and stopped on the way to shop at a pleasantly uncrowded drugstore for things that they won't let me order for delivery. I now have razor blades and two bottles of hand sanitizer, a little one for my backpack and a middle-sized one to keep by the door. Also lip balm, which isn't expensive enough to qualify for free shipping by itself.
JP Licks informs me that the July flavors of the month include cucumber, so I intend to buy some after I see my doctor next week.
