Husband's on the phone with the recruiter. Everyone cross your fingers that it might be a good job.

My twins were born exactly 11 months before Pi-Boy so I was not surprised to find out that he is approaching nine years old.
My family is supposed to go to Miami for spring break on Sunday but we are wavering. We aren't so much afraid of getting sick, we just want to be sick at home with our things and our people around us. Getting quarantined in a strange and expensive place seems like a real risk when you are traveling with two kids. I'm not sure what we will do.
My university is teaching one-hour seminars on how to take lectures online from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm all this week. We are supposed to find one that we can attend. I'm wondering whether our 44,000 students will be returning from spring break. The administration isn't saying much at this point, but if enough universities take step of suspending classes it gets to be a liability issue for those who don't.

I read last night that Ohio State is moving to all-online classes. That's a big damn school.

The University I work at is apparently still planning on in-person classes next week (after Spring Break) but I really wish they'd go online so that the kids would keep their germs in their hometowns and not bring them here.

Okay, so far, so good. Salary good. We'd relocate to the Atlantic side of Florida, which could be worse. Yes, there hurricanes, but presumably no snow.

Yeah, I'm at another Big Ten school, so their example may be persuasive to our administration. The schools cooperate on many academic issues at this point.

Nilly! So good to see your pixels, even if it's due to self-quarantine. I hope all turns out clear.
We had a funeral for a longtime friend of my mom's today. She was fine until the part came to walk past the (open) casket, and that really shook her up. Then out of the funeral and into the dumpster fire at work. This is a very Monday-ish Tuesday so far.
