🕑 Added 2020-03-30 16:49:31 +0000 UTCIf you're bored, some videos of the JoCo Cruise I went on a few weeks ago are making their way online:

Not a problem to stay home, since I'm retired. I live in Montana, and the streets are pretty empty because the governor and most of the local authorities are not fantasizing idiots. They understood distancing very quickly. Restaurants in my town can only do takeout, which isn't totally isolating, but it helps. The hardest thing for me is to use the phone, since I'm deaf, but hearing aids, Bluetooth, and the iPhone make it possible. If you remember Terminator, the robot would sometimes be given a list of responses. I think the brain does that. It tries to figure out what's said if the hearing mechanism is off. At lunch with a friend, I distinctly heard her say to the server, "Please, I don't want any futons with my soup." I told her I didn't realize they served futons with meals. Often, though, what people say is so close to what could be said that it's hard to know. Anyway, I hope you stay okay and maybe get to great or even super great.
I'm not super great, but I'm doing okay. :) Hope you're doing well and able to stay home.
I hope you're doing okay in all this. And I saw that you are linking your reviews to Bookshop. I feel reinforced for having stumbled on it.
