Shop till you drop?

It makes me feel safer knowing clothing stores have closed down their dressing rooms. It’s well known that viruses tend to contain themselves in dressing areas rather than spreading throughout the store. It seems logical to board up the dressing rooms and allow customers to try the clothing on at home instead, especially since they’re given a mere 36 hours to marinate the merchandise in their coronas before bringing it back. Not to mention, I enjoy the challenge of guesstimating how an outfit will fit based on the way it appears on a hanger. When in doubt, spandex and lycra with a dash of corona are always safe choices.

Suddenly, “shop till you drop” takes on a whole new meaning.

Quarantine, schmarantine

Uncovered pictures of both my great-grandparents on my dad’s side from Hungary at the turn of the 20th century.

Two world wars and a Great Depression later, I’m pretty sure they’d say “Bah” to our 130 days of quarantine.

Nevertheless, I’ve found myself wearing the exact same expression.
