Our wings are not tired.

Zen, so good to read about your new co-workers and physical therapy improvement. You should be appreciated and pain free!

Msbelle, that sounds like reasonable plans at your parents new place.

I know solving her issues isn't my responsibility but it will make my life happier.

Does she use technology at all? You can get lost in computer card games/Sudoku/Mahjong/etc for many hours a day.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I was laughed off for being irrational over expressing worries/slight disgust about double dipping of food and sharing of utensils with people I don't share fluids with.

Coronavirus and preferences aside, my immune system is not what it used to be pre illness few years back, so yeah, I don't think it's that irrational.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Are you kidding me? That's ridiculous. The laughing off part, not you!!

I guess I have no excuse for not going to church now, since it's going to be livestreaming on Facebook....

...except he has his phone vertical, so maybe I'll just listen!

Oh thank goodness other people commented, and he fixed it.

Welcome to my liveblog of church this morning, apparently??

I just spent a half hour putting together my Whole Foods delivery order to find out delivery is suspended. Sigh.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just checked to make sure my parents church was cancelled. They would've been ushering.

Save a seat for me at the irrational table. If I'm not cool with sharing a bed (or wasn't when I had nightmares as a kid), I'm not cool with sharing a spoon.

NOPE NOPE NOPE to double dipping or sharing utensils. Ew. Gross.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Thank you. After two friends were all "well, it's a matter of personal preference/a cultural thing/yes, you're being slightly irrational", I was beginning to question the health norms I follow.

I mean, it really is slightly gross and a violation of boundaries.
