Stay at Home
I had to do some work today.
I am grateful that I still have some work to do.
It will come to an end in a couple of days and then
I will be twiddling my thumbs along with everyone else.
My work took me into Linden Hills, and I drove
around The Lake, Bde
Maka Ska on my way home.
I was stunned by the long line of cars at the stop
light, the foot traffic in Linden Hills, the crowds of people walking around
the Lake, as with the jammed-up traffic all up and down 36th Street.
I understand that it is kind of a nice day, and a
lot of people are feeling exhausted simply because they have been cooped up.
Seriously though, I have to wonder how many people
are paying attention to the news. Who is listening to the recommendation on
social distancing?
Is anyone paying attention to the fact that New
York, California and Illinois, have put mandatory shelter in place orders into
effect?
Why wait for the numbers here to get as bad as they
are getting in other parts of the country, why not just stay home if you don’t
have a reason to be out?
Just take a little bit of boredom and frustration
for the team.
All of you people who were out walking with their
families around the lake, is it just that you can’t imagine that something
terrible could befall you or someone you love?
This virus is worse than a honey badger, and it
just doesn’t give a f*** about you, or anyone.
Stay at home.
