My afternoon job canceled on me. Tonights menu is chicken curry with asparagus. Yum. And beer. Lots of beer.

They are threatening us with snow for Friday morning. I suspect the snow won’t materialize. If it does it will be a rain and snow mix that will be only annoying.

Got contacted by ED. Original plan was for the Squire to go visit her for the March break. With the extended school closings, she's offered to keep him for the extra two weeks. She's stepping up, and the wife and I think we should go through with it. As an aside, I am getting a little scared about everything. Not the virus, just the second and Nth order effects it will cause.

I am also mostly worried about the second and nth level effects. We can pray that people keep their cool through all of this but the media panic is a little difficult to manage.

One of the nice things about a massaman curry is that it makes the house smell yummy.

In #4 PaladinPhil said: Not the virus, just the second and Nth order effects it will cause. I sneezed three times in less than a minute today. Should I go to an urgent care facility? Emergency room? Or self quarantine? Will Amazon deliver food? How can I ever face people again? What if I sneeze again in public. Will I become anathema? I'll watch the news to find the answers and trust the government to put salve on my worries. - - (D) voter

And meanwhile, at my workplace, we are all on mandatory telework as of Monday until further notice. Which is kind of a relief. Let’s just do this, close schools, and get the whole thing over with, hopefully will all be back to normal again by memorial day.
