Staying in bed.
Doing a Covid check later (when I can be bothered dragging my frozen arse out of be -and dislodging a cat).
Are the hospitals in NZ chockers like they are here? The other day all major Adelaide hospitals had not one bed spare?
You'll be right, right? You have contacts!
Strained, not cheek to jowl (yet). But that’s as much to do with influenza as it is COVID.

It's 1am and I can't sleep.
Again.

Making another cup of coffee to drive the cobwebs of sleep from my brain.

It's two, two, two crises in one! UPS informs me that my package has been delayed due to both weather and some failure affecting the railroad.

Got my Uni schedule all sorted for the fall and winter sessions.
Fall: Latin, ancient Roman culture, critical thinking
Winter: More Latin, a English course about literary themes, and an anthropology course.
Cleverly scheduled for three days a week, nothing starting earlier than 10:30 in the morning or finishing later than 2:30 in the afternoon. With a nice lunch break, too.

All of a sudden, my iPad got stuck in headphone mode. The speakers work if you're touching the little alert volume slider in Settings, and if I have headphones in, there's sound. Otherwise, nothing. Dad and I are doing everything we can in the (technological) middle of nowhere to try and remedy this.

I learned to despise all things Apple in '91. I was writing software on a Mac computer, and it bombed out with that cryface icon, "a system error has occurred" several times an HOUR.
#RottenApple. It got to the point where I saved at every line of code. I wrote programs on many Digital Equipment Corporation, Floating Point Systems, and Cray platforms with no issues.

Having a beer. I think I'll watch the news, have some soup, and head to bed.
