Sooooooo, it looks like everyone has got to stay home for a while. I guess I lucked out, as I was already going to be on a kind of home staycation during this time anyway so my plans aren't as impacted as most everyone else's are.
I'm gonna make one short PSA about it all. I realize a lot of people who read this are fairly young and healthy, so if you catch this the vast bulk of you all will probably have a period of feeling miserable, and then get over it when it runs it's course and move on reasonably unscathed. But one of the things about this thing, compared to flu and other bugs, is that it seems really easy to catch, and easy to spread. So while you may not be much of a victim, it's very likely you'll be a new vector, and this thing is looking to be a serious threat for a couple of different population groups. So maybe you just kinda ask yourself when you're thinking of going somewhere. "Is this trip really necessary?"
Hopefully we can bend the curve down in a couple of weeks, and get more back to normal afterwards. Because I don't know how long you can put a country on a prolonged pause like we're trying to do.
My guess is that there will be a dramatic uptick in video game playing, and movie watching.
And for us shut in artist types life is.....probably completely unaffected. :P
So, since we're all isolated, but virtually connected. I'm thinking of seeing if my streaming software still works sometime next week. Any particular time anyone's available, or unavailable, or anything particular you want to see?

And you don't have to be old to die from this, you could just have some other issue that makes it worse.
