I think I gave myself a stomach ache from eating too many carbs today. Like I only ate carbs. grilled cheese sandwich, cookies, chips and a little pico, mashed potatoes.
Should we call Carbs Anonymous?
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I ate too much candy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dang it, lost another post. Short version - I ate too much matzo ball soup

I'm just slightly worried that when I get into work tomorrow, I'll find out the place is even more locked down than it was, because one of the residents tested positive.
There's already a stash of PPE onsite if we have to quarantine someone in their apartment.
Mostly likely noone is going to test positive, because pretty much if they did, they'd be so sick -- these are not robust people at all, since you don't get into assisted living without some pretty bad preconditions. But I'm still worried.
(I talk about this here because Facebook is a bit too "public" with too many local people that could identify where I work, et cetera.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Our Easter Zoom call with Tim's family was loud and chaotic (20 people, including babies) and it really left me frazzled and sad, and I can't shake it. I might just try to go to bed early.

I hope everyone is ok and you can continue to take the precautions you are used to, Theo.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, Tep. That sounds so hard. Appropriately-socially-distanced hugs in an amount you can tolerate.
Thank you, Natterers, for basically letting me use this place as my Covid diary. I should try to pull it all together into one coherent piece (I know people on social media have been recommending keeping diaries or journals because this timeline is so strange, so abnormal that we need to write it all down before we all forget), but I don't have the spoons for it yet.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Just threadsuck it and fix it in a few years.
Signed, probably should grab things from archived threads of the 2004-2005 era.
In related news, tomorrow, my child will be 15. What is time even?

Time isn't holding up Time isn't after us
At least according to David Byrne.
Happy birthday to the cutest little teen lemur!
