Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Health-ma to JZ and Quarantine-ma to you and Matilda.

They've just declared a state of emergency here. No gatherings larger than 5 people, and giving the cops the ability to fine those who are defying orders around assembly and social distancing. They're also shutting the border to non-essential travel. (Being a peninsula, it's pretty easy to control the main routes in, if you want to rock up to a beach on a boat, you can probably make it in.)

We've only had 28 cases confirmed so far. So they're trying to get ahead of it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Because books.

Yikes, Zmayhems! Here's hoping JZ heals quickly and David and Matilda are okay, too.

I feel like "stir crazy" is going to get really real for a lot of us really soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's looking like an early sign of the virus might be losing your sense of smell (and taste, by association), especially before you get any other symptoms.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm so sorry! Here's hoping the symptoms stay manageable and that the quarantine doesn't make you all crazy. I'm glad you solved your tech issues. You can always play battleship from behind closed doors! I'm confident your family will find creative ways to socialize with safety.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hec, is Emmett with you?

Nope. He's up in Sonoma with his girlfriend. He works at REI so he's been on leave and getting paid (that's good!). But she works at a bank which is an essential service so she's getting exposed to the public right now (not good).

Much ~ma for him and his girlfriend too.
