I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm so sorry, JZ

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm sorry for your loss, Calli.

I'm sorry, JZ.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm so sorry, Calli.

Much love to you and your family, Cindy.

JZ, best wishes and best outcome~ma for your dad.

meara, if things come in threes, maybe we're all done with broken ankles? Give my sympathies to your sister!

I asked my doctor to refill my Valium script and bless her, she did. Right now, I just want chocolate, and I have none.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm so sorry, Calli. Strength to you and your family, Cindy. JZ, I'm so sorry for that grim development. Keeping you and your family in my heart. Trudy, I hope your aunt is all right. Meara, yikes. I'm glad your sister has someone to take care of her.

What is even happening?

Thanks, Pix. How are you and ND doing?

My older son's girlfriend is a nurse at a Boston hospital. They just tested her for Covid-19. She doesn't have a fever, but has the sniffles and a tickle in her throat.

That son recently moved back in with us. He had his own place, but changed jobs and the new job is closer to home. He's working from home now anyhow, but hasn't seen his girl in weeks, to protect his brother and us.

GF is half-hoping she has a mild case, to get it over with.

Boston and vicinity is about to get bad, I fear. A worker in a little green-grocer/bakery/deli here in town has tested positive. Supposedly the person had no customer contact, but they've quarantined the people who worked closely with this person.

Where's that line though. Okay, maybe John only works out back, and only Jim and Rich move from back to front, but how many people do Jim and Rich work with out front? How much customer contact do they have.

We're not testing and quarantining the way we need to, to stop the spread.

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

Calli, I'm so sorry.

Oh JZ, I'm sorry you have the burden of being the one who knows things, in addition to the rest of it.

meara, healing~ma for your sister.

Dana, glad to hear DH's interview went well. I reserve judgment on yours at this point. So weird.
