Gaters? Cloth? You like to send that "I do stuff half-assed" vibe, do you?

Compared to people walking around in those useless surgical masks, I was diligent. A ski gater is a pretty well layered item.
I also took exceptional pains not to get close to any of my older relatives or immunocompromised acquaintances. The way I saw it, Covid allowed me to punt on almost any social commitment and convert in-person things to remote, And I Did.
I kind of miss it now. The "Covid Tribe" of close friends who all agreed to be diligent and trusted each other led to lots of engagements where small talk was unnecessary. You could have more in depth conversations and often it was outside, dressed in a pullover, sipping whisky in a plastic cup, or in shorts, with a gin and tonic. Now I'm back to small talk land. Crowded soirees peppered more with acquaintances than close friends. What's called "normal."
