distancing socially, oh boy

Dy­lan and I were talk­ing last night about ex­pec­ta­tions of pro­duc­tiv­i­ty in this time of so­cial dis­tanc­ing, and he had sage words:

“I’ve been work­ing on this tall can for the last five hours. Just chill out, everybody.”

 

Every­thing is scary right now and I’m not su­per ex­cit­ed for the fall­out when the storm clears,

BUT

there’s clear­ly a huge cre­ative boom com­ing from all the iso­la­tion, and that I’m ex­cit­ed, even hope­ful, about.

Ap­par­ent­ly this ☝︎ was a re­sult of hours of watch­ing Ar­chi­tec­tur­al Di­gest Open Door videos.

 

GUYS I AS­SUMED SARAH PALIN SINGING BABY GOT BACK ON THE MASKED SINGER WAS SATIRE.

 

 

AND YOU KNOW, NOTH­ING I LOVE MORE THAN MY ALMA MATER US­ING THE CORO­N­AVIRUS AS AN OP­POR­TU­NI­TY TO SO­LIC­IT DONATIONS 

(it’s for their stu­dent hard­ship fund but it’s still gross).

 

I also just re­mem­bered that be­fore I end­ed up work­ing in ed­u­ca­tion, my first choice job was at Safe­way be­cause of it be­ing in walk­ing dis­tance while still be­ing a trans­fer­able chain, but their man­ag­er treat­ed me like I was an id­iot for point­ing out that their ap­pli­ca­tion web­site didn’t work, so I moved on pret­ty quickly.

I think mansplain­ing saved me from be­ing in the gro­cery work­force dur­ing quarantine.
