I had dream that they canceled COVID.<\/p>\n
It was vivid and realistic. I dreamed that I woke up one morning and turned on the television news to hear it decreed that all was, once again, back to normal. That all those who had been sick or died were magically well. That all who had lost jobs could return to them. That the worst parts of the past few months had been erased and, today, we would reenter life, as we knew it. That COVID had been canceled.<\/p>\n
Yes, it was a very Pollyanna kind of dream.<\/p>\n
The dream came the night that they announced the official cancellation of the Aspen Music Festival 2020 summer concerts. The cancellation of things have been the low watermarks of this entire year. It is the year of the cancellation. I was watching live the night of March 11 when the NBA canceled the game between the Utah Jazz and the Oklahoma City Thunder just before tip-off in one of the more surreal sports television moments of all time. The next day the NBA, the NCAA hoops tournament, the MLB, the NHL and the Masters all canceled or postponed events. It was stunning.<\/p>\n
