From [personal profile] malurette, a meme:

o1. Are you an essential worker?
At no time.

o2. How many drinks have you had since the quarantine started?
I think... two? No, three. I had a scotch.

o3. If you have kids, are they driving you nuts?
No kids here.

o4. What new hobby have you taken up since this started?
None - I've mostly been working on large numbers of small house projects, adding some circuits, improving lighting, rewiring the server rack, lots of similar things.

o5. How many grocery runs have you done?
One a week, including the monthly Costco pharmacy/grocery trip.

o6. What are you spending your stimulus check on?
It went into the pool, but arguably this new-to-me Macbook Pro mid-2012, the last one with the optical drive and physical ethernet port and can still run the latest OS, Catalina.

o7. Do you have any special occasions you'll miss during this quarantine?
I'd planned on hitting Sakuracon this year for the first time in a while, and that was cancelled, so.

o8. Are you keeping your housework done?
Extra, given all the storage/closet/basement/server rack reorganisation.

o9. What movie have you watched during the quarantine?
None - I'm more likely to game than watch movies. But I do like them and have been building a little watch/rewatch list.

10. What are you streaming with?
Netflix as of the 14th and She-Ra! I am not ready for the end of She-Ra.

11. Nine months from now is there any chance of you having a baby?
ha ha ha ha HAAAAAAAAAAAA no.

12. What is your go-to quarantine meal?
We're mostly eating as we always have. I dislike cooking, and Anna can't/won't, so it's not very interesting.

13. Is this whole situation making you paranoid?
No.

14. Has your Internet gone out during this time?
We have rather expensive business-class because of all the servers, and it's been just fine.

15. What month do you predict this will all end?
If we're lucky, April 2021.

16. First thing you're going to do when you get off quarantine?
We aren't in real quarantine, we're simply in stay-at-home. But I really, really, really miss my weights workouts, and while I am working out at home, I just don't have hundreds of pounds of weights to do my weightlifting. So I'm looking forward to that.

17. Where do you wish you were right now?
Mars. Ohtori Academy. Watchpoint Gibraltar. Fucking anywhere. But if I have to be on earth in this time, here's pretty good. Particularly for North America. Cascadia now.

18. What free-from-quarantine activity are you missing the most?
Oops, already answered that.

19. Have you run out of toilet paper and hand sanitizer?
No. In fact, I saw this coming and ordered a two-pack of reasonably-sized hand sanitisers and haven't opened them yet. (Seriously, they're normal size, I wasn't hoarding.)

20. Do you have enough food to last a month?
Yeah, but it would get pretty canned-food heavy after a while. And rice. (We live in a big earthquake zone and we're already prepped for a couple of weeks at all time, so kicking it up a bit for longer? No big.)
