Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

At the moment, I'm mostly anxious about going out to get milk and eggs. Once we're done with that, I'll have less specific anxiety.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I meant to say, yay quitting smoking!

As for anxiety: Yeah mine is high, my neck and shoulders are a disaster area and I've had some hot flashes. BUT, if I am given stuff to do, it is much better. I'm really good in crises, lots of practice for high intensity situations.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, you're quitting smoking, Jesse? High-five!

I did it! Last Sunday!

I'm trying to decide whether or not it is safer to send TCG out for perishables or to have them delivered. Thoughts?

Now tagless for your comfort.

And DH just showed up at work saying he'd been kicked out of the office and ordered to WFH until further notice. I now have panicking parents picking up piles of books for sequestered kiddos.

Woo, Jesse!

Can you have them delivered and left on a porch, sj? That seems like it would minimize everyone exposure.

I think so, -t, but they would still have to touch everything. t tries to keep taking calm breaths

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Closing the dorms? Where are students supposed to go?

My school contracted with local hotels to put up students who couldn't go home. I suspect they only thought to do this after there was some push back from the students.

I don't think you can avoid that, everything will be coming off the shelves. Can you wash stuff as you bring it in?

Yeah, that's probably the best we can do, -t and only buy packaged items.
