Sat May 16 06:00:01 EDT 2020 ======================================== Slept from midnight to eight without waking. Partly sunny. Highs in the upper 60s. Northeast winds 5 to 10 mph. Watched East Side Sushi, a pleasant little indie flick about a Mexican single mother fighting for a job as a sushi chef. Thirty-five-minute walk in the early evening. Mostly cloudy, warm. Saw a morning dove, two crows, a red-winged blackbird, a blue jay, and a duck. Also saw several groups of people half-assing physical distancing.
