How Long Has This Been Going On???

Working from home has advantages: you don't have to change out of your pajamas, but you should. Showering is also an excellent idea; please do it. I think this is week 3 since the virus has taken over everything and while shelves are void of toilet paper (please explain THAT to me), life is pretty much normal. It's times like this that you realize how bad your internet is or how to tolerate the people you love when they won't keep still or just know they are always right about everything. And I mean everything. According to Instagram and Facebook, several adult skaters are using Pic-Skates to skate outside while awaiting the coast to be clear. If it's nice outside and you're in a park and there are a lot of people around you, isn't that defeating the purpose of social quarantine? I am reminded of the people outside my apartment building who decided to have a party on Friday night. How was that helping? I myself and trying to keep from drinking every alcoholic drink in my apartment. So far, we still have something left. Between working 12 hour days and drinking, somehow my sleep isn't what I would have expected. It's not terrible, but if I have one more dream about living in the old west during a cholera outbreak, I think I'm going to scream. Keep yourself busy. I set my watch to go off every 90 minutes so I can do something active, like kettle bell swings, sit-ups, push ups or a 5 minute spin. On Saturday, I spent 30 minutes trying to put on false eyelashes. I succeeded in getting eyelash glue all over my face and one eyelash stuck to my eyelid, but no where near the right location. We will get past this. As some of you know, I am in NYC. I have a dear friend who thinks NYC is going to become like the movie Escape from New York. I've never seen it. All I know is Kurt Russell wears an eye patch and NYC is a prison. We are New York. We survived Hurricane Sandy. We survived losing so many during the throws of the AIDS crisis. We survived 9/11. We will survive this. Will be bruised? Probably, but we will endure. Be careful out there. How Long (Has This Been Going On) recorded by ACE. Written by Paul Carrack.
