Drink mai tais on the beach in Maui at sunset until the hotel staff has to haul me back to my room on a litter.

To travel again. My side business is on hold now since can't travel anywhere, especially to other countries.

Travel for sure. The one positive is that I used to have to do some math to figure out if, after the intervening vacations, I would have enough vacation days for the vacation I was currently trying to book 11 months out. Now I'll just need to figure out if they'll let me take 2 months off

Packing my surfboard and paddle board and flying to Jeju island, South Korea. Planning to rent AirBnB apartment for a month and take surfing lessons. After that I'll probably fly to Koh Tao island, Thailand, and spend about a month there and learn to scuba and get my certifications. After that, who knows but my basic plan right now is to spend about 3-6 months traveling every year and spend the rest of the time at home.

Go out to dinner.
Brazillian steakhouse (my favorite), French restuarant (middle ground), or Sushi Bar (wifes favorite)...

On the subject of masks... I find it a little tedious to put one on for a quick trip in the store to pay for gas or something, but I like that it defeats facial recognition. I also like that it keeps me from eating so much fast food. A lot of lobbies are closed, and I hate drive throughs. Convenience stores I have to put the mask on. It isn't a huge deal, but it seems to be the tipping point in my mental tally of "Should I stop for food?", and I opt to eat what I have at home. It's been fattening my wallet, and thinning my waist. All told, I think I'm a fan.

I got mask lanyard, and it greatly reduced the annoyance of putting on a mask and taking it off. I just wear the lanyard like a necklace. That's pretty much how everyone wears it in Asia.

Go on a nice vaca with the missus. I'd love a place with great food and interesting historical/cultural sites. My wife want to visit Amish country. Seems like this might be a challenge.
