My wife and youngest son have been quarantined in my house with us so it'll be a miracle if they don't get it.
My wife is a realtor. Their ordered to shut down tonight at midnight.
I (Red lobster manager) have been put on leave of absence & have filed for unemployment.
We(NY) were already in a partial shutdown but at midnight tonight it kicks up to the next level.
Barbers,Game stops,Gyms etc.. anything retail must close their doors.
I'm 54 & I haven't been unemployed since I was 15.
My wife is high energy..work keeps her sane.
We forgot to get to the liquor store tonight so that was just salt in our gashing wound.
They close for good tonight.
I popped in here just now for a distraction & a possible laugh.
Poop jokes are good.
Maybe I'll swing over to the girl on girl thread that usually helps.
Its always interesting to hear different takes from around the country.
Especially those that are still as my son says..a week or 2 behind us(NY).
Thanks to those who have sent me well wishes after reading some of my posts.
I'd like to say its no big deal but well.. the hysteria alone makes it a big deal.
My suggestion to everyone is you personally don't have to believe the hype but that sure as **** doesn't mean you shouldn't be getting ready to eventually be where I'm sitting.
There is no place to go & nothing to do.
I'm guessing next week we won't be able to leave our property except for the 30 minute grocery store runs.
Don't mean to be a Debbie Downer but it kind of sucks here.
I'm out!
Off to Girls on Girls..

As much as things have definately sucked, you have two small silver linings. If you've had it now, you know you can't get it again, and you know that after you're healthy that you can't give it to anyone else.
Small comfort given what you're going through but you will have some peace of mind going forward that others won't.
