COVID-19 17 March 2020

Breathe in the new air of emptiness, America!

Our human virus is now on a different prowl.  Bars and restaurants limited to 10 people.  Don't gather in groups.  The schools shut down, which is weird, but the CHURCHES shut down!  Man, that doesn't happen.  Shutting all the churches is unprecedented in my lifetime.

And here were are on St Patrick's Day.  I'm not gonna lie, I think it's kind of funny that Irish people and all their wannabe-Irish pub-crawlers are on lockdown.  All these people were probably fine with shutting down other things, but YOU SHUT DOWN THE BARS!!  (That's some funny shit.)

People are hoarding toilet paper and ripping hand sanitizer machines off the walls of businesses.  Yep, America is exactly what all those uppity British people thought from day one - we are paranoid, and we revel in it.

Personally, I've spent the last four days writing a book, actually cooking from scratch, playing a lot of Yahtzee with my roommate, and generally wandering around.  I kind of like it (minus the whole "death" thing).

I also put together the soundtrack for the novel, which is fun.  And I threw in the virus as a side-story.  Why not?  What else have I got to do?  Go to work?  Nope.

Happy Tuesday, everyone. Don't check your stocks - there's no reason at this point.  Just be.
