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

Great moments in schadenfreude...

Boris "I shook hands with everybody to show the virus who's in charge" Johnson has tested positive for coronavirus.

Our wings are not tired.

OMG, my brother got married today!

Congrats all round!

Health~ma wishes for -t, and well all of us.

Boris Johnson apparently the latest to join to COVID-19 club. MSNBC keeps talking about the appalling lack of testing in Palm Beach County. My doctors are furious about the situation. Have a whole floor of suspected patients at a Boca hospital, but tests take a week or more to come back with results.

I have to think about grocery shopping...

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

I feel like my family and I need to wear giant flashing "WE ALL LIVE TOGETHER" signs when we go outside to defend the 4 of us walking close together.

Seriously considering getting one of those "day of the week" clocks (branded as retirement gag gifts usually) as an essential productivity tool.

Boris "I shook hands with everybody to show the virus who's in charge" Johnson has tested positive for coronavirus.

Well, I guess we know now.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

TCG was supposed to be home all day today, but he needed to go into the office for a couple of hours. I'm a little annoyed. I feel significantly less anxiety about all of this when he is home with us.

I'm sorry, sj. I hope he gets back quicker than anticipated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, my brother got married today! He informed me by sending me a link to the video. They got married standing in the front yard with the officiant 6 feet away.

Oh wow -- congrats to them!

Glad you don't have a fever, -t. Hope you can sleep this off.

Hang in there, sj.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Boris "I shook hands with everybody to show the virus who's in charge" Johnson has tested positive for coronavirus.

Well, it's not Trump or McConnell, but I'll take it.

Well, it's not Trump or McConnell, but I'll take it.

Or Hannity. My conclusion on the potential existence of a God would be swayed if Trump, Pence, McConnell, and Hannity all were positive.

What is even happening?

flea, a baker in my area was selling flour to customers for $0.75/lb. You might call local shops to see if you can buy some.

Ugh, my dad's CXR is now showing some infiltrates in the right lung, so no extubation for the time being. The nurse is in the room with him so I have to wait another 10-15 minutes and call back for a complete update.

JZ, how did the call about your dad go? How are you feeling? I hope Hec and Matilda are still well.

Wow. That's kind of romantic. Best wishes to them, aurelia.
