Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

A place I worked years ago at one point decided to do personality assessments on all staff. I found it intrusive at best and obnoxious. I think I went through and put "N/A" for just about everything. If I remember correctly, nothing came of it, but then we were all working there already. (I wonder if failing a personality test could be grounds for firing?)

calm and health ma to all.

Police testing positive is putting chunks of entire precincts out on quarantine.

My dog walker said the streets are much more empty today after the curfew started last night at 8. I am pretty committed to just staying in my house/yard for the week and not even having anything delivered. I need to consume the food in my fridge and the fresh fruit so that I am not wasting stuff. Maybe I will order a meal on Friday.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Every county surrounding us is under a stay-at-home order, but we are not. Our county still only has 1 confirmed case, but there are plenty of anecdotes about others that have it.

We just did a grocery run on Sunday, so we should be good for at least a week and a half. My dad is also dropping off food two or three times a week, which is much appreciated.

Our wings are not tired.

We have more walkers going by the house than ever. Sunset is like social hour with more than adequate distancing with our sitting in the driveway about 40 feet from the street.

Thrive to spite them

The city of Greenville is expected to approve an stay at home order except it would just be for the city. It wouldn't effect the county so we won't be under those orders.

I woke up and don't want to do anything today. I did get a shower and brush my teeth and I took over the couch. Matthew just got up a while ago and wasn't thrilled when I declared what I was doing. The can play Xbox in the other room but I just need something different. I could have been more tactful I even said we should have a movie marathon but that didn't go over well be just went into the bedroom.

yeah, I've got low low motivation to do work today, but I am trying to just stay on emails.

Because books.

Sort of off topic, but I can't say it anywhere else. What I can't stand about midern American work culture is this in a nutshell: my boss ( who made me leave the bakery Friday, immediately, because I coughed and a "very important customer complained, essentially laying me off for 14 days) knows I am at a hospital with Sara, who had an emergency appendectomy on Sunday. And yet, she just texted me to place an order to our restaurant supplier.

I want out of this timeline and off this planet more every day.

Sorry. I'm literally enraged.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Holy shit, Amy. WTAF. You should be enraged!

askye, I think you are thinking of Nick Carter, hair-wise.

I have had a bunch of calls today, but I also accidentally took an hour and a half for lunch, between making it, eating it, going for a walk with my mother and also to CVS. Man, there was really no one in there, and yet somehow I bought the last bag of cotton balls!

Also, good luck with those interviews, Dana+DH!

And Katerina Bee, I am sorry for your sister and also hope you don't have to give her rides if she's unpleasant about it.
