The Comeback

 Four days without a post, so...let's recap! 

Saturday was OC duty and it was a fricking zoo.  Mind you, we expected it, but...  the count was 173, 608 for the month, which is a record, and, as I liked to say, evidence of my superior generosity.  Anyways, for all of the complaining that I do not order enough... everyone thought I did, as we gave away everything in terms of produce (the large crowd helped) and most of the canned goods.  The people were...well, not very good.  It is an end of the month thing, and this time of year you get everyone, but... we had winter coats, but only 50, so the rule was clients could have only one.  Now, I get that this is not good, but we had 50, and as the other comanager noted, everyone is going to say they have 9 kids if we didn't.  Of course, several clients tried to take more, a few did, so of course I was like no canned goods, no meat, produce only -- and we moved the coats inside and people had to ask for them.  I realize they are Hope and Changers, but I think we were over them last Saturday.  

Anyways, I decided to treat myself after, one by using my Bob Evans gift card -- yes, I know it is like Cracker Barrel in that it is re-heated -- for lunch.  It was good -- not $17 good (excluding tip) but it was free (sort of) and it was nice to just sit there.  I also decided to hit the KSU-CSU game at the Convo -- two decent mid-majors, what's not to like?  CSU lost -- KSU really outplayed them in many ways -- but it was fun; I like watching college basketball, and there are worse ways to spend an evening than supporting the locals.

Sunday was my triumphant return to Mass -- the other EM was very concerned about my health, but a couple of people said they were glad I was there to bring them Holy Communion, so that is a good thing.  I had a nice workout at the gym, and then it was off to Edgewater to deliver Communion to my Polish friend -- she has COVID, but I know she wanted the sacrament, so I left her one in my spare pyx, as well as one of those turkey cakes...I would have posted then, but that afternoon, while reading a CNBC article, of all things, my computer exploded with virus messages...so of course I had to shut down.  I took it to Geek Squad yesterday, and got it back today -- nothing -- but it was quite annoying.  Also annoying:  my phone charger broke (the metal part just bent) and my CGM (newly inserted) was a dud, so I had to call for a new one.  Sigh.
