Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I'm so sorry, Jessica.

I finally got my new laptop, set everything up, plugged in my card reader, opened up IE, and... no go. STILL cannot log into the network.

I'll give it another try in the morning, call the IT folks, and then go to the office to see if there's anything important in my email.

Apparently you can park right outside our building now, which is just shocking to me.

The Governor has called for shelter in place statewide; I wonder how much that will help.

The status is NOT quo.

So sorry, Jess. Sending my love.

My mother was the only one of her 4 Boomer siblings not to fly out to Cincinnati yesterday. Including my one uncle who IS A FUCKING DOCTOR OMG. Family Zoom call at 11.

In the meantime why not enjoy some Lin Manuel Miranda singing Everything's All Right? I plan to watch this on repeat for the next seventeen or so hours.

Jess, I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad your mother is doing the smart thing.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, Jessica. Much peace to you and your family.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oy.

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

There is a house a block from me for sale. Listing says 6 bedrooms and 5.5 baths. I am not sure how that is laid out. I think the must be counting the open 3rd floor space and finished basement space as bedrooms. but that only gets me to 5 bedrooms (I am assuming 3 on the 2nd floor as is typical in these houses, but maybe they have 4 as the house is wider). 2 full baths on 2nd floor, 1 full in basement and 1 full on 3rd only gets me to 4 full baths, so again, a mystery. Anyway due to the bigger size it is more expensive than my place was, but would be GREAT for either 2-3 people to buy together or a family. JUST SAYING!!! It sold just 2.5 months ago for $100K, so I think they are dreaming on getting this price and I think anyone looking at it would want to look at the mechanics - they may have just done surface updating for the flip.

I am so sorry, Jessica. My condolences.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Jess, I'm so sorry for your loss, and I wish your whole family could be together in person right now.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I am so sorry, Jess.
