I'm workin on the night moves

Hello! I am doing OK and hope you are too. I felt awful earlier today but went back to sleep for a while and after that, things were better. I am going to try and embrace this night life instead of fighting it, for the time being. I also asked for help with getting groceries, since grocery delivery is overwhelmed with orders right now and is a bit tricky to navigate. It's not like I loved going to the grocery store, but I loved being able to just go get food whenever I wanted to, including the middle of the night. Stores that used to be open all the time are closed now at night for cleaning and re-stocking.

I really appreciate folks who have reached out. Doing video phone calls has been great-- it's easier than regular phone calls for me. I suppose I get a lot of information from facial expressions, and it's easier to pay attention and not zone out.

People are creative and resourceful. We'll get through this together.

Oh, I recognise that Shaun Tan icon!

I've been to several of his art exhibitions

and seen his books turned into plays and symphonies!

Ahhhh, I’m so happy for you! I loved his work.

I saw “The lost thing” animation

And had the great good fortune to use his wordless book, The Arrival, while tutoring ESL students.

My goodness, I just read all the lyrics to “night moves” and it’s not about dancing!

Yay for doing even okay.

I too mourn the loss of wee-hours grocery runs. Though not enough to drive through an all-night Walgreen's for bags of Brach's red jelly beans.
