Today marks the first holiday of the 2020 quarantine. There will be no parades, no green beers, and thankfully for the entire NJ transit and Metro North teams, no insanely crowded trains with people attempting to complete a keg stand. While I will not miss most of the things listed in the previous thought, I'm not sure if being home for a week or so will really be a week or so... * The grocery store is flooded with corned beef, and no other meats. * The toilet paper and paper towels have been cleaned out.
*The bread is flying off the shelves like there is about to be an insane Nor'easter.
Over the weekend, my family enjoyed corned beef and cabbage at a restaurant before they were forced to shut down for curbside takeout only. It was a hollow sense of joy, and uncertain future. Quarantine has begun.
