I fear that is the case, Jessica. This region of NY has had a very low rate of infection. This past holiday weekend the tourist town was packed with people. Restaurants, shops, streets, beaches, all jammed with breathing people from far and wide. Workers in the businesses were masked, but not all the people. I can't see the rosy numbers staying low.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Yeahhhhh, that doesn't seem like the guards were too bright, either. Contagious disease y'all! Am watching it because we are supposed to be starting up a drug trial at hospitals in Melbourne and one do the things I was arguing with the client about was making sure there was a plan in place if there were a second wave of Covid there....I guess maybe a third wave now!

Chris I have the same thought process, both on cleaning and on wondering if maybe I'm off, or if it's just normal human-ness. Because a lot of the procrastinate-y/adhd stuff I see seems like...common human traits? So I guess it's a matter of "is it so bad it gets in the way of your life"? And I guess I mostly have coping mechanisms.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Amy, for me it seems to be a mix of hormones, stomach issues, and whether or not I overdo it physically. I can't always control these factors but I have gotten really good at recognizing them. I have also started to associate a sudden deep depression which seems to come out of nowhere with the fact that I will likely have a migraine later that day.

FWIW, before I was actually diagnosed ADHD I would look at the traits for it and think "but doesn't everyone have that" in part because it's all kind of vague and a matter of degree and in part because I always thought everyone was like me...

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

My county had just applied to move into Phase 3 on the 19th when the health board said "You've got multiple outbreaks at long-term care facilities and you're nowhere near hitting the target of 80% participation in daily monitoring of confirmed cases, so no".

MA is Phase 3 now, and I'm contemplating taking a random vacation day to go visit Old Sturbridge Village, which has opened up because this may be my only shot at visiting My Happy Place this year before we (inevitably) end up stepping back a couple phases.

Ahhhh, my weekly conference call was nice and short and I've pretty much taken care of my action items already. I'm gonna quit work on time!
