I want to go to Thailand. It is warm sunny and cheap. Their coronovirus figures put the European figures to shame. The Thais say their daytime temps kill the virus. Alas though, the planes have stopped flying. Oh well, plan B. Find Bill Gate's bunker and break in. Or bunk up with Handy and his well.

Had the threesome in the bag and then I sneezed. Easy cum easy go.
Hot here in Florida, You can still catch it, Disney World closed, the end is near.
Always thought it was the human petre dish, Kind of like a Chinese market but all people.
On a bright note, my local market has TP, food and beer.
So have a Fn great St. Pattys day (my bday) and have a cold beer and corned beef.
I was told if you apply the alcohol internally it has systemic affects.

I am currently in Spain (an island a long way from the mainland) which has recently ‘locked down’. In some respects it is a pain as the beach and pool are closed as are the restaurants. I get closing restaurants and the pool but why the beach. The very nature of the beach should make it safe. Open space, fresh breeze and UV light. Yes we wondered that too. The answer apparently is that it contravenes the lockdown which allows trips to the supermarket only. |

I got a call from a nurse where I get my DNA Miss Match Repair infusions, STAY HOME, no if, and, or buts. She said I was in the high-risk pool, male, over 60, and low blood counts. I said I didn't feel there was anything wrong with me except being a little tired.
OK, I'm staying home for the next month or two. Maybe I can organize the garage a little bit, then do the same with the yard.

The problem with a that beaches can get very crowded with large groups of people who now that they are off from school or work go to beaches now like it’s a holiday weekend.. I saw some pictures today of crowds at Florida beaches earlier this week and I see why those beaches are now closed.

Those beaches will be just as lovely when the risk is passed. The selfishness of some folks is beginning to make me cross. |

My friend and I are sick at home. Most likely we both have Corona but luckily it is mild so far.
In Belgium we have an almost lockdown now. Most shops and companies are closed. Food stores are open but with restrictions. There has been a run on toilet paper (like in all countries). But I have found some good advice for alternatives:

My son has self isolated with some symptoms. As a parent it is heartbreaking we cannot go over and help.
The alternatives to toilet paper are endless and the uk makes 6 million a day on automated production lines. The panic buying is pathetic and needs to stop.

Maybe it will be good for him to have some solitude. You can phone and Skype him. |

I’ve read that 70 percent of the world is likely to get this and people over 60 and/or people with cancer or chronic diseases like hypertension or heart disease are the most likely to die. If you are like me over 60 and with a chronic disease, you can take this as an opportunity to think of if you were to die soon you’d die with major regrets about things you wished you had done when you were able. And if you’d die with those kind of regrets, you still have time to change the trajectory of your life. I only wish that I had taken the time, really taken the time, to appreciate toilet paper. |

Places here are taking a person's temperatures, instructing you to use hand sanitizer and are asking medical type questions before you can get in to the place.
There is only take-out food, no elective medical procedures, no hospital visitors, very limited dental care and the power's to be asked the dentists to donate their protective supplies to the hospitals and clinics.

Self quarantining in Mexico as government officials are recommending for everyone non essential . Glad to be with post sm partner of 7 years and not my ex. I’d literally rather be quarantined alone than with him.
Writing this naked while being cuddled by post sm partner who is sleeping and naked. If we both get the virus and die maybe we’ll be found in each other’s arms like that Pompeii couple.
The virus terrifies me. At 68 and with hypertension I’m vulnerable. But I could die now with no major regrets. So glad I followed my dreams of leaving my marriage and then later followed my dream of moving to Mexico.

I saw some pictures today of crowds at Florida beaches earlier this week and I see why those beaches are now closed. Our/my beach here is quite different. There are hundreds of little public entryways (walking paths with stairs on the end) and thousands of homes,condos,townhomes, hotels,apartments,etc.... that all have private entrances to the beach. This leaves the public parks with parking areas. These are now closed. People will,and do, continue to park at churches, shopping centers,etc...and walk across the HWY to access the beach. (not safe) These are the only locations with a lifeguard. The life guards are still on duty. 8-5. My 17 yrs of living at the beach ,and observing/being part of "peoples beach behavior" is that people stay very much too themselves! They go alone, as couples, family or a small group, and already practice "safe distancing". The same for people fishing, surfing, sea shell collecting, sun bathing, bike riding, walking or jogging. The 'Spring Break' crowd has always been very small, in our area, however all 72 miles of our counties beaches have had the parks/parking closed and the beaches will remain open. Hard to close and enforce miles of basically private beaches. I believe these pictures of "crowds" can be quite deceiving. Including boating pictures at our area Intercoastal waterway. These people arrived together ( a small group of less than 10, probably a family) and stay on their boats or far distances from each other. It's been that way for years, people are generally far less 'social' than decades ago. |
