I wasn't on social media yesterday. No Dreamwidth/LiveJournal, no Instagram... I did my usual rounds of news & info websites, so I'm pretty up to date, but have no idea what people think of any of it, or which parts they've made jokes or memes about... & I don't have any FOMO about it, apart from ending a pretty good run of consecutive days posting on here, but I'm sure no one else noticed
We're preparing to spend Easter the way Jesus apparently did - locked up in a tomb with no visitors. Maybe we'll take the re-enactment a step further & just sleep through it as well... emerging blinking & stumbling into Sunday at some point, thinking it's a miracle. My guitar student & his Dad want me to come over on either Friday or Saturday, but given the travel restrictions in place are being strictly enforced, I don't fancy explaining to the police how guitar lessons are an essential service & I can certainly do without the $1000 fine that would surely be issued
There is the possibility of my PC being ready for collection on the weekend though... which is a more impressive feat than Jesus - he was only dead for 3 days before coming back to life, my PC has been dead for 4 months!!! Which is even better than Lazarus, so JC loses out on 2 counts there. And with L-SP's work-issued letter of travel exemption, I'd have a much better chance with the police if I tell them we're picking up a computer for the home office. Now to find a good USB external soundcard & software to record music with - my 1st band, who came back to life last year (more resurrections... maybe I'm the Messiah... I've certainly been a very naughty boy, in my time) & there is talk of recording more tracks for an album release sometime soon, so I'll need that software sooner or later, especially if this social isolation keeps up for the months they're predicting. I fired up our digital piano on Tuesday & have a few little ideas worth keeping, on something better than my phone...
