Quarantine meme

[themadpoker]

1. Are you an essential worker?

Nope! Moved to work from home a month ago and it's going okay. A tad nervous about my classification at the moment as my university is starting to make noises about cutting hours given the budget shortfall.

2. How many drinks have you had since the quarantine started?

I'm Muslim my G. My vices stay limited to baked goods.

3. If you have kids... Are they driving you nuts?

No kids or pets, I'm riding this out solo.

4. What new hobby have you taken up during this?

Puzzles! Thinking about maybe getting into gaming too, I got a Steam account to play board games over Tabletop Simulator with my usual crew and I'm looking at trying a few videogames while I'm at it. Might have to wait till I get a new computer though, my laptop is suffering under the increased use.

5. How many grocery runs have you done?

Very few honestly. I've switched to only shopping every two weeks and we just had a pretty big outbreak in my town so I'm considering using delivery going forward. Dunno how I feel about outsourcing the risk like that but given the situation...

6. What are you spending your stimulus check on?

Yeahhhh, I dunno what my hours will look like soon so it's staying in savings.

7. Do you have any special occasions that you will miss during this quarantine?

My family's been wanting to do a trip to Turkey for two years and obstacles keep popping up, I'm starting to feel like it's cursed. ;_; Otherwise my biggest loss is centering on Ramadan, I'm really going to miss doing group iftars with my friends.

8. Are you keeping your housework done?

Hahaha. Ha.

9. What movie have you watched during this quarantine?

Honestly movies are a social thing for me, with the theatres closed I haven't really bothered with any.

10. What are you streaming?

Galavant (rewatch) and Princess Tutu. Enjoying both!

11. Nine months from now is there any chance of you having a baby?

I'm already praying that my family stays safe during this pandemic and you want me stressing about the possibility of immaculate conception too?

12. What's your go-to quarantine meal?

Meals are pretty much the same really. Eating more baked desserts then I should though.

13. Is this whole situation making you paranoid?

Ehh, what qualifies as paranoia in a genuine crisis?

14. Has your internet gone out on you during this time?

No, thankfully. Did have a short power outage one weekend but the Internet came back when electricity was restored.

15. What month do you predict this all ends?

Depends on testing and the development of a vaccine which, even with fast tracking I don't see happening in under a year.

16. First thing you’re gonna do when you get off quarantine?

Depends on a lot of things! Either invite my friends over or get myself onto an airplane to see my family with all that vacation time that's not going to Turkey.

17. Where do you wish you were right now?

In an alt-universe where the world was better prepared for a pandemic?

18. What free-from-quarantine activity are you missing the most?

I miss my weekly stitch and bitch group. Discord's nice but not the same.

19. Have you run out of toilet paper and hand sanitizer?

Good on toilet paper, hand sanitizer is nowhere to be found. Not much of a problem since I spend all my time at home now and I have plenty of soap.

20. Do you have enough food to last a month?

Things would get dicey towards the last few days and I'd probably be willing to fight someone for produce but yeah, I could make it work.
