everybody except me and my monkey

I was reading the risk factors for Covid-19, and apparently moderate to severe asthma is on there. So I guess that's me? I tend to undersell my own vulnerability to shit like this, I get horrendously sick (I caught swine flu when that was thing, and boy howdy was that Not Fun) and I just power through it like an asshole.

Anyway the Evil Overlords are on lockdown starting tomorrow. I'm in the group deemed non-critical, meaning I can work from home, but not during Prime Time because they want to make sure the critical folks have access during core business hours. So I'm going to be on night shift for the next couple of week. This is not a bad thing at all, I am much better at working nights than I am at getting up in the morning. Not having to commute (or wear pants) cuts a couple of hours out of my day. I can do yoga on my lunch break. I can sleep in. If the ground thaws I can dig in the yard during the day. I can deal with banks and lawyers and Executor Shit during the day. (Assuming they're still around and functioning.)

And for the moment at least, we're good for toilet paper.

Oh, that's interesting. I wonder if other overlords that won't be named will switch to that. There were definitely load issues today.

glad you are able to work from home, and the shift sounds much better than getting up early.
