It was bound to happen sooner or later. I had an anxiety-type dream that manifested as difficulty in getting my face-mask on. I was meeting up with someone, and belatedly realized that I should be wearing a face-mask. So I started digging around in my purse... there were several in there, but it took a while to find the right one that I could wear. By then there was a whole group of people with us. The others were all wearing their face masks. I was being silently judged by them, though they were polite and didn't say anything... I was still struggling to get the face mask out of my purse. And then a group photo of us all was being taken, and I still didn't have the mask on, and it was going to be immortalized in a photograph...

Nothing too dire, and somewhat amusing in retrospect.

This evening I had a scary thought. What if I end up being sick on election day, so that I can't go vote? Or so I feel I shouldn't go vote, to avoid infecting anyone else? What if I'm just a little bit sick, and I don't know if I should go out or not?

There are probably going to be long lines again for this election. Not a nearly empty gymnasium like during the primaries. So if I have any reason to think I might have COVID or a flu, I ought not go out even to vote. That would be unfortunate.
