Distanced Dinner

Yesterday Mary Beth and I had dinner "with" the upstairs neighbors, each couple sitting on opposite sides of the deck. It was good, a nice bit of socializing that stays right at the edge of social distancing. Of course, these weren't shared meals, just two concurrent and nearby meals. Last night also ended with more Daria. We saw some good episodes but we also saw the holiday episode that was...weird. And I can often get behind episodes of shows that go out there and completely disregard the typical laws of the show's universe, but I don't really think much about that episode otherwise worked. Instead of being weird in an interesting way, a lot of the holiday characters were just kind of annoying. I can maybe step back and see some theoretical things that I'd appreciate about it, but I just don't think it worked or was well written. Anyway, anything else? It's pretty stormy today and there was some crazy thunder and lightning that woke me up for a minute at like 4 am. But hey, it's not like we need to go out or anything...
