Jen.

It's happening.

We're all in our houses.

We've been prepping our whole lives for this.

I know.

God, I know.

It's really stressing me out, but also I have so many books to read so it's so here's the thing it's like it's so

immensely stressful that like you can't I'm just I've resorted to gallows humor every like everywhere like my I

walked the dog yesterday and so New York is where are we at in New York where

every day it changes. But as of today, bars and restaurants can only do

take out and like everything is closed. Everything is closed. And I was walking on the street. I was walking the dog

yesterday and this man was walking toward me and he was like halfway up the block and

then he just immediately crossed to walk in the street and I was like you know

I don't think that man is afraid of dogs I think that man is social distancing and like I'm for it thank you dude great work everyone

I had to run out and pick up something yesterday at the mailbox place did you

wear latex gloves well it was not the post office so these really I would not have got into the post office.

Because it's different. No well well it is. It's one guy and he like sends me an email and he's like Jen you have three packages from Kirkus and I like walk in and he hands them to me and I leave that's it's nice it's not a big deal it is nice

So as long as that guy stays healthy everybody's fine I'm just convinced that everybody has it it's true it's true true. I said to Jen this morning I have a very very good

my like one of my best friends from high school is this like hot shot public health

economist and she did this Twitter thread today that was basically

like the flu that everybody thinks that they have been getting over the last two

months seems
