I haven't fully decided whether I'm going to the coffee shop tomorrow. I've got a haircut in the morning. And Candy's cold is still trying to get me, I'm tired-ish, and I'm thinking maybe I should stay home and just sleep it away or something.

I'll play it by ear and make a determination by noon. (side note: I'm SO SICK of Candy's coughing).

On TV tonight and tomorrow night, we'll be watching On Patrol. A couple years ago -- or what seems like a lifetime ago -- there was a LIVE PD show on A & E that was live and followed cops. With the absolutely idiotic BLM and Defund the Police madness, that show was ended probably due to safety of the cops and the film crews. Steve found On Patrol a couple days ago and it appears to be a new version now on a different channel. We've missed the show.
