Pandemic Pro Tips

My old friend Mike Rebuck recently suggested that I post an essay from my book “Nose-Sucker Thingees, Weeds Whacking Back and Cats in the Bathtub” because it might offer good advice for avoiding COVID-19. The essay, “Finding a Pediatrician,” which originally ran in Richmond Magazine back in the late 1990s or early 2000s, details many examples of my OCD-driven… eccentricities… that emerge when I’m in public settings. To be fair, this is my pre-medicated OCD, and I’m a little less disciplined now. BUT, if you want to avoid Coronavirus, you’d do worse than to take heed of these pro tips.

Unfortunately, I can’t find my computer with the electronic version of this essay, so we’re going old school here. Read on, and I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for the suggestion Mike!
