Well, my quarantine has officially come to an end. Not because it is particularly safe now, because it isn’t remotely, but because I must return to work. Needs must. And it is what it is. I take consolation in the fact that I come in contact with a very limited number of people at work, right now, so that’s something at least.

I had hoped/planned to have a few blog posts written ahead of time to post this week despite being at work… but between housework, and doing Camp NaNoWriMo writing, and plain ol’ depression-fueled laziness, that just didn’t happen. So there may not be any blog posts this week. I’ll try to put one or two together in the evenings, but I get pretty worn out after work, so no promises.

Not that I have much a readership at this point anyway, of course. I appreciate those of you who have decided to subscribe, but I guess I’m not appealing to a larger audience. Maybe I’ll work out the right formula, or tone of voice, or subject matter, or tagging system. Or maybe I’ll just remain not-interesting-enough. *shrug*

In the meantime, you all be safe! Stay inside if you can! If you cannot avoid work any longer (or were considered essential from the beginning), I wish you safety and luck. I you are anyone who has been integral to keeping this country from total collapse, be it nurse or doctor, grocery store worker or delivery driver, cleaning staff and tech support, etc etc etc…. thank you for all you do. Good luck to us all!
