a not-so-random meme
Quarantine meme (quaranteme? quaranmeme?) picked up from 
crystalpyramid.
1. Are you an Essential Worker?
No! (I mean, I’m a student.) Calluna is, though, in the sense that her workplace is having her come in in order to do teletherapy from her office.
2. How many drinks have you had since the quarantine started?
I don’t drink much, in part because of meds, in part because I had no tolerance to begin with, so, like, a shot of Kahlua’s been it.
And, also: Lots of water! (Put a splash of lemonade in.)
3. If you have kids... Are they driving you nuts?
I do not. Nor do I have ready access to any, alas.
4. What new hobby have you taken up during this?
Worrying? Er, no wait.
Meditating. Yes.
5. How many grocery runs have you done?
A couple. I’m doing the “not a lot but more than many other people” variety of quarantine.
6. What are you spending your stimulus check on?
Uh, probably rent?
7. Do you have any special occasions that you will miss during this quarantine?
Easter. (The communal experience of spring and rebirth, rather.) Birthdays (mine and my brother’s combined thing). Various other family things.
8. Are you keeping your housework done?
Sure. Somewhat.
9. What movie have you watched during this quarantine?
A Beautiful Mind for class. (It’s gorgeous. Also, not enough information on schizophrenia. No, really. I will do a media round-up soon and complain about this more.)
Also, most recently, 1997's Anastasia, which I never saw, first time around. I evidently knew all the music, though, which was nice. Also, it stole Anya's look from Eponine! It's great!
10. What are you streaming with?
Comcast. Er. Wait, sorry. Netflix. Will prolly eventually switch to Disney+.
11. 9 months from now is there any chance of you having a baby?
Being as I’m in a monogamous relationship with another woman, and also have PCOS, not so much.
12. What's your go-to quarantine meal?
It’s ridiculous, but I’ve rediscovered the joy of turkey sandwiches, brie, and avocado. (Half a sandwich.)
13. Is this whole situation making you paranoid?
Not in the actual paranoid sense. In the “worrying a lot” sense, sure.
14. Has your internet gone out on you during this time?
It was going up and down like a yo-yo during Wednesday’s class, gr. But it’s mostly behaved since then.
15. What month do you predict this all ends?
“I think a lot of Americans are doing a terrible job managing expectations, complaining that it's too soon to cancel summer classes (or spring classes). It's going to be a long two years.”
CrystalPyramid hit this quite well.
We’re sucking at testing, contact tracing, and antibody testing. *If* we get a workable vaccine, that will be a year, year and a half or so. Soooo. Less soon than people think.
16. First thing you’re gonna do when you get off quarantine?
Go visit my dang nephew. Or hug my mom. Or both.
17. Where do you wish you were right now?
I just took a pretty good walk, so I guess mostly I wish I were in New Hampshire.
18. What free-from-quarantine activity are you missing the most?
Hanging out with my (16 month old) nephew.
Also, live classes with eye contact and immediate feedback, the better to have an actual relational class experience. Frickin’ hate online classes. Will cope, because, it is the way it is, but I don't have to like it.
19. Have you run out of toilet paper and hand sanitizer?
Nope, and Calluna made us some, so, nope. (Can’t find any though. Toilet paper, I can find.)
20. Do you have enough food to last a month?
Not so much, though I do have enough to not have to go food shopping at all often.
