Limit Break Dancing (He/They)
I'm taking this as seriously as I can. We aren't under an official quarantine or anything, but I'm doing a lot of no-brainer stuff just to be cautious and courteous.
- I've restructured my work so that I can attend meetings remotely, and as of tomorrow I will be working from home 4 out of 5 days a week. If I don't need to be out and about, I don't want to be.
- I've set up home delivery for three different grocery stores. It's worth the $5-10 delivery fee to not have to deal with parking, crowds, and unpredictable inventory.
- I set up a Roll20 account for our gaming session this weekend. We're going to be playing Call of Cthulhu, some of us for the first time, and we are going to be doing it 100% remotely. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for folks who are taking their first trip through Roll20?
- I bought a half-dozen new games off of Steam. They have some truly ridiculous sales going on right now, especially if you are a fan of JRPGs.
- I put a variety of eBooks in my checkout queue at the local library. I don't quite understand how there can be a queue or even a wait list for eBooks, but here we are.
- I dusted off the old Super Nintendo and XBox and got them installed. Steam is great and all, but sometimes you need to bust out the Dr. Mario or Oblivion.
- I picked up a couple of canisters of disinfecting wipes and a couple of boxes of tissue, and refilled our medicine cabinet's supply of prescription and over-the-counter meds. I figure I'll likely catch what's going around, and I aim to be ready.
- I finally installed that new webcam I got for Christmas, and my mom is thrilled that she gets to see my face when she's chatting with me.
- And the last one is probably the biggest for me: I'm limiting my social media exposure to just one platform, and for only 1 hour a day (30 minutes in the morning, and 30 minutes in the evening). I can only take so much hype and myth in a 24-hour period, and lately I've been hitting the saturation point before I can finish my breakfast.
