Now it's closed to US citizens as well and some provinces are under a state of emergency (Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia)

 :( My last chance of getting help was a US friend coming to stay with me.

Fuck the universe.

Pritzker (Governor of my State) closed certain avenues down except for locales like Walmart (and/or other big box, and grocery locations)... the main locations in general as of this moment?

Primary Election Voting Booths all throughout...

Sheesh -_-

We're cancelling the conference I'm one of the organisers for. There's no way in hell we can do it in June, the way things look now.

This reminds me I have to finish installing the new router in the basement.

We're supposed to be socially distancing ourselves but that doesn't stop the pub over the fence from being packed full of patrons does it?

That's what drives me bonkers. Countries can't contain it if people keep doing stupid shit.

That's smart. Nothing like that here but two police regions have been informed that no one will be getting vacation and all hands on deck so I'm thinking that's coming soon. There was an arrest in Quebec of a woman who tested positive and broke quarantine to go for a walk around the block. But I think she had been misinformed on what protocol was. She was wearing a mask, in her pj's, early in the morning when no one was out. I think she thought if she didn't see/talk to anyone that it was okay. Police took her to the hospital without incident.

Someone claiming to be so and so from my Dad's past added me as a friend on Facebook...

Dad, on the other hand, got conformation from so and so's husband that this person isn't interested in getting back onto Facebook...

I guess practice for #AnnoyTheDon should be put into action?

Finally got a full weeks of groceries so now I can relax. Nobody has anywhere to go until the 28th.
