icepixieI am alive, huddled in the bunker formerly known as my house with plenty of toilet paper and canned goods. My department started optional work from home for everyone on Friday, and most are taking the option, including me. Outside of work, I'm spending a lot of time reading covid-19 news articles, because despite the horror, it is rather fascinating.
It's been forever since I posted, so I won't even try to update everything. To be honest, there isn't all that much to update. I'm still skating, although I've bailed on the local April competition that the club is still, bafflingly, planning to hold. They have at least acknowledged that if they have to cancel, they'll give refunds. My epidemiologist boss expects large gatherings to be verboten until at least July, so at this point I'm actually more worried about the August competition.
I fell in love with Grace and Frankie over Christmas, and actually started nudging at a fic, in fits and starts. If events calm down, I may even get back to working on it.
That's really kind of it. I'm more active on Facebook these days, cesspool though it can be, so if anyone wants to be friends there, let me know!

Date: 2020-03-17 03:21 am (UTC)2. July? Argh. So I should probably start rescheduling the Shakespeare Festival theater tickets I reserved for the whole first week of June....
3. Fic from this quarter flowers slowly, although I have also acquired a new fandom (Miraculous Ladybug) that may yield a snippet or two ere long.
4. I regret that I am among the league of permanent anti-Facebook holdouts, and must therefore hope that the intermittent updates Over Here will continue.
