1. Throw that $3.00 in high-yield savings.
2. Freeze yourself for 1,000 years.
3. Hope the bank is still in business.
4. Profit.

I'm more disappointed in my poor eating and drinking habits lately. I really don't feel very good physically, but I also don't seem to care that much. I feel like I'm letting myself down but also at the same time.

Wife is going absolutely insane and yelled at me for doing the dishes this morning. She said she was going to do them last night, but didn't...so I just did them because there was something in the sink smelling rank. I may have muttered "I hate doing dishes" and that sent her into mode.

That must be nice.

My Alpo luck is striking big time. I feel physically better than I have in a long time. I've also been busy enough my mental health has been great but as things are coming out of crisis mode we will see if I can keep it there.

My wife sometimes gets that I do household tasks "before she has time" (read: I do most household tasks). I am just the type of person to do something immediately when I see it needs to be done. SHe can be a bit lazier

My entire families mental health has plummeted big time. Because we can’t do anything.

Wifey was finally getting to be in a really good place after a few years. And then the state decided to say fuck everyone; we don’t give a fuck about you or your mental well-being. Stay the fuck home and be miserable.

Desertbreh wrote: ↑Wed Apr 08, 2020 10:52 am Chris I will concede that sometimes I do not understand why certain items become WELDED to pans, which does make me scrub in anger.

I'm not sure if it's high water pressure, or the design of the faucet, or what...but it's ridiculously easy for water to catch just the right angle in a pan, bowl, spoon, etc to make it shoot across the kitchen. We use cast iron pans, which means utilizing chainmail or a plastic scraper to clean. While welded substances are no match for chainmail, the pans are heavy and maintaining the perfect angle to prohibit long range water ejection is difficult and tiring. It's inevitable that once a cleaning cycle I'll get some long range water ejection, and when it happens I feel that an uttering of "I fucking hate dishes" out of frustration is warranted and not worthy of a spousal

Without reliable information on what proportion of the population has already been exposed and successfully fought off the coronavirus, it’s worth questioning the value of social-isolation controls. It is possible that the fastest and safest way to “flatten the curve” is to allow young people to mix normally while requiring only the frail and sick to remain isolated.
