So I'm in Connecticut for Thanksgiving. I thought and thought and thought about weather to come up for Thanksgiving.

My brother and his partner are very safe.
One of their friends from Brooklyn is super cautious AND she got tested.
And then a couple locally that they are friends with.

The couple just dropped out because one of them had contact at work with someone who tested positive.

I hope they are okay and don't get infected, but I'm not unhappy that Thanksgiving just dropped from 6 people to 4 people.

That was very considerate of them not to come -- nm - znufrii Nov 25, 07:11 2
- I mean, is it? Wouldn't that be just the most basic expectation? -- nm - Andie Nov 25, 07:15 1
  - It is very considerate right up until the point you find out "potential exposure" means "We got a better dinner offer from Ted & Alice" - crash davis Nov 25, 07:23

this is the thing. you're not just having thanksgiving with that couple. you're having it with their whole bubble, however large. -- nm - amanda jeans Nov 25, 06:45 1
- Yep. You have no idea what other people's version of safe is. -- nm - Andie Nov 25, 07:00
Hopefully, purchases for dinner were already made so everyone's plate increased by 50% -- nm - crash davis Nov 25, 06:45
