And by all means, if you're up for low stress creating, might I suggest going through the 3SF and filling prompts that catch your stressed eye here and here?

Hang in there my friends.  I'm mentally in a pretty good place (I think?  maybe?) so please come and unload if you need it. I'm here and I'm listening. This is very much like post 9/11 but worse and it all sucks.

Oh and this was adorable, sad, but lovely, people posting to Laura Benanti's twitter timeline pieces of musicals they would now not get to do. 

From a convo with my spawn on Friday:

Spawn:  "I want to go to the hardware store and buy a crowbar, water containers, plywood, gas, and extra nails in case essential services are cut."

Me:  "Well, okaaay, if it will make you fee better."

Spawn:  Rambles ambles stares at ceiling for 45 minutes then "Shit!"

Me:  "You forgot to take your meds, didn't you?"

DON'T FORGET TO TAKE YOUR MEDS!
