@Stevel, first and foremost I feel incredibly fortunate to have a job where I (and most other employees) can pretty seamlessly transition to a work-from-home setup. I know that's not the case for a great number of folks right now. It's been a bit of a challenge so far, but getting there. Biggest issue is just being able to draw the line between work time and home time when you're always at your workplace.

efd: Understood. I'm in my third week working from the dining room table (not optimal, but my wife and son (30-ish) have the two office areas available. (If only I'd refinished the basement...) I often divide my days, leaving some time in the late evening (now, perhaps) to work and think about work (which, oddly enough, can help sometimes.) I've pretty much left work aside for the weekends, not that there's much to do, given still cool and damp weather. Still, we eat together at least once a day, maybe watch something. We can walk around the neighborhood very safely (and the dogs insist!)

I watched Emergency EVERY FRIDAY if I recall correctly. Perhaps its why I became a news photographer. Whaddya think, Uncle Michael?

Emergency! (don't forget the exclamation point) was the best! Love that you were talking about it yesterday too, Kat!

I know, I haven’t thought about that show in decades so that is a weird coincidence.

Handy Haversack:

We had all these conflicting emotions between Eyelids waffle concert and the fact that the same day is the NYC Tartan Day Scottish parade, which we march in every year ... and then it all got canceled!

So I have been enjoying all the things that have been canceled that I couldn't afford, had a conflict with, or had missed the fact that tix were on sale.

Not a good person, but the convenience charge for U.S. Girls was $30!

My temp job hours get trimmed to 32 in two weeks and the job itself ends June 30, so I hope I can afford a hair appointment before I look for work again. May just go gray at this point, we’ll see.

Ugh, is this how it's gonna be for the next 2-3 weeks?

"NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Ellis Marsalis, jazz pianist, teacher and patriarch of a New Orleans musical family that includes famed musician sons Wynton and Branford, has died. He was 85."

He seemed to have COVID-like symptoms, but his test hasn't come back yet. Went pretty quickly.

So, I think this is the first time I’ve listened to WFMU on eight different devices in one week. It’s great that all these dedicated (and unpaid) WFMU DJs such as a EFD are doing all they can to deliver original content.

We ... watch highly curated, ad-free, not broadcast TV. Our actual TV is used pretty much as a cat bed and for football season.

Hey, CLAY!! We had a Glistener video conference! queems, LCBD, Buddha, Daybreak, Drop of Golden Sun, yerfriendpaul, Colleen, Rachel Bo Bachel: much love sent your way!!
