Yeah, I have a dance convention that's planned here for the weekend of Mar 21--I'm sure they don't want to cancel if the hotel is going to charge them and attendees demand their money back! But dancing is not exactly a low-contact activity!
Oh, no, oh, no! Spontaneous poetic exclamations. Lord, spare me college boys in love.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Our assisted-living has had one event cancelled already -- going to be a bunch of high school art students coming over to draw resident portraits, which can be very nice, but evidently a couple of the kids at the high school went on a winter trip to Italy -- so while nobody has tested positive (yet) they're still exercising all caution with our vulnerable population.

Our company has given preemptive permission for folks to work from home and suddenly everyone is self-quarantining. ("Out of an overabundance of caution" roughly translates to "Out of a desire to avoid my commute for as long as I can get away with it")

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm are Dad's. He looks terrible.
The hospital released my brother early. He showed up to pick up his stuff and the police arrived to arrest him.
JFC, I need a drink.

Oh, Cash.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm so sorry, Cashmere.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would like to offer you a drink, Cashmere.
My job just cancelled all non-essential travel through April 30, including domestic.

Cash, you deserve ALL the drinks.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Cash, I'm so sorry. There should be at least a drink.

The "taste of Downtown" thing that's scheduled for this weekend the next town over is still happening, and I'm going to go. My parents are going to join me, which I didn't really expect because they are in their 70s and therefore more vulnerable than me and were making noises about hunkering down and avoiding gatherings but not for some reason this one? And my dad's going to take the train, although maybe there won't be a lot of other passengers? Who knows. After a flashy start with the first community spread patient, Solano County has been holding steady with only 3 cases and no deaths so we're officially "low danger" so maybe that makes the difference.
