 DS>> I have to call the hernia surgeon this morning for a over the
 DS>> phone COVID-19 screening.
 NB>> Just checking for symptoms now, then... ;)

 DS> They just asked the questions and took the forehead temperature.

That's most typical, unless one is actually going in for surgery or some
procedure.... :)

 DS> Thankfully, the COVID-19 test didn't have to be done rectally, in
 DS> public...although they said one of the "signs" of it was diarrhea.
 DS> That can happen from food bacteria, virus germs, or strange water.

I didn't know that there was a rectal COVID-19 test, actually, just that
not-so-pleasant nasal probe....  And while diarrhea is one possible
symptom, most are more respiratory symptoms which also have many
possible causes other than this one nasty virus...
 
 NB>> So did that push you to have steak for breakfast....?  ;)

 DS> No. I ended up going to a local franchise called David's Burgers.
 DS> With ordering a combo, you get unlimited french fries. They had
 DS> several tables "marked off" for "social distancing" (unavailable),
 DS> but at least I could eat in.

Yes, I'm rather happy that some places are now able to allow eat-in...
I've quite missed that option... here one does need to wear a face
covering coming in and leaving, and the tables are either spread for
distancing, or as at your place, some blocked off as unavailable for the
same purpose... but those are minor inconveniences.... :)

 DS> What really disappointed me what that Arby's got rid of their
 DS> Grand Turkey Club sandwich. While their Chicken Parmesan is OK,
 DS> I preferred the Grand Turkey Club. Now that I think of it, they
 DS> may have gotten rid of the chicken parmesan as well.

That's the trouble with the major food chains.... they introduce special
items which they might even keep for a while, but eventually they end up
dropping them, even if it happens to be your favorite item....

ttyl      neb

.... It was a fancy restaurant with, like, real plates and stuff.
