Got The Specials "Ghost Town" playing thru my mind

For those unfamiliar with it, here's the video. Of course, the newest comments (look under "Sort By" and hit the tab) are Corvid-19 related. It is an all too appropriate song for right now.

My place of work is an essential business (it's food and hygiene related, not open to the public). Really weird knowing so many aren't in that position and also hunkered down at home with nowhere to go. Here I am, doing 40 hours M-F and driving to/from work as usual - except it's not. Fraction of cars on the road, packed parking lots anyplace with groceries, lines at any fast-food drive-thru, signs at work for hand-washing and social distancing amongst ourselves if possible, the commercials on TV promoting support and food deliveries, the absence of talk shows, CNN aka Corona Virus Central, stories of the quest for tp, etc.,.

Currently, Washoe County has 22 confirmed cases.

Being an introverted homebody, self isolating is a breeze.

Speaking of which, here's some Threadless Tees perfect for the current occasion:

That's What I do, I Read Books And I Know Things
Secret Introvert Society
The Great Indoors
Personal Space

Several streaming services are extending their free trials to 30 days:

Two more weeks to go. April 6th, supposed end of social isolating/distancing for here. Hopefully everything will reopen, people get their jobs back, all be ok.
