Read part 1

Monday, Mar. 23

My cats are getting annoyed at having me home all the time.

I had to do a load of laundry after Henri puked on a rug. The washing machine and dryer is in my building’s garage. We only have one machine for 8 units after the second one broke. We were supposed to have a new one delivered last week, but it’s been delayed indefinitely.

I got an email from a stupid recruiter who thinks I would be interested in moving to another city for a 6 month contract. I told him what to do with it.

I stayed home the rest of the day.

Tuesday, Mar. 24

I went shopping at Luke’s Local & Walgreens. Luke’s was pretty bare, but I picked up a fresh pizza. Walgreens was pretty well stocked, including TP, but no hand sanitizer or disinfecting wipes. I also did another load of laundry, which should last me the rest of the week.

I got emails from two more recruiters from other states. Why do they expect me to move to another city for a stupid contract job?

For the Great American Takeout, I went to Crepes On Cole. I had a nice talk with the owner while I was waiting, about the neighborhood and how businesses are surviving.
