This all-day remote conference was supposed to have a 30-minute break 45 minutes ago.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Good to hear from you, Nilly, even if it's due to self-quarantine.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The MA governor just declared a state of emergency. Not sure what that means for schools and government employees yet.
CT did the same today , and it turns out the Rhody already did it yesterday. I only thought to look after you mentioned MA.

'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"
We're getting serious about making sure that every visitor Purells as they walk in the door. I'm being extra-cautious, because I'm the staffer who is interacting with a lot of the public in person.
I'm really worried about what happens if, like, half the kitchen staff ends up quarantined at home. (I wonder how they're staffing that nursing home in Washington where there have been so many deaths.)
It's really hard to make plans for April at this point, including things like lunch outings and/or concerts. It's all going to be one day at a time for a while.

Now tagless for your comfort.
The idea of Nilly!Kids never ceases to give me happies.
Sorry about the quarantine.
Oh, and I've started running Dungeons and Dragons games for some of his friends.
Owen DMs his own group and volunteers at my library D&D group. Which I LOVE.
billytea, have you played Honey Heist with them yet?

information libertarian
mr. flea has been obsessed with the toilet paper hoarding phenomenon all day (after overhearing his office mate talking to his wife on the phone about Kroger being out.)
Text received: "Robyn has a bidet so they don't have to worry."
Then he messages me that his sister (who lives in a two-person household) bought 45 more rolls bringing her in-home supply of tp to 75 rolls. That's like a year's worth of toilet paper. What does she think is going to HAPPEN?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think I need to get toilet paper. I tend to get one roll at a time because I don't really have a place to put extra, and also I ride the bus.
