Keep calm and carry on
by chuckofish
As you can imagine, all hell has broken loose at my flyover university and my own institute with on campus classes being canceled through April, etc. etc. etc. due to the COVID-19 hysteria. I endeavor, along with the Queen, to keep calm and carry on.
Meanwhile daughter #2 arrived yesterday and we are going on with our baby shower. Don’t worry, attendees will keep a reasonable social distance from each other–no hugging! Maybe I’ll wear gloves–like the Queen!
The boy brought the wee babes over to our house later in the afternoon to see their aunt.
Today I am back at work trying to sort things out, but I’ll head home in the afternoon to hang out with daughter #2 and daughter #1 who is driving home from Mid-MO. Weekend fun ahead–within limits, of course!
Have a good weekend. Keep calm and carry on.
“All men live enveloped in whale-lines. All are born with halters round their necks; but it is only when caught in the swift, sudden turn of death, that mortals realize the silent, subtle, ever-present perils of life. And if you be a philosopher, though seated in the whale-boat, you would not at heart feel one whit more of terror, than though seated before your evening fire with a poker, and not a harpoon, by your side.”
