So apparently some places let their people do something they call telecommuting. It's becoming quite the thing in this time of plague. And my person was asked if she would be willing to. Of course she said yes.
My person's original intent was to set everything up on the dining room table, but we all forgot that there isn't a plug handy over there. The sewing machine only gets plugged in as needed and then promptly unplugged. So - after much banging around of things and foul language and whatnot, part of the computer table from the old computer room is now inhabiting the living room and my person has a nice work desk. She said it's staying even after everything goes back to normal and the computer goes back.
The only problem was that she needed to plug it into either the modem or the router. She wanted to use the router since the modem has to stay pretty much where it is. However - that didn't work. At all. So, 100' of wire later, we're plugged into the modem, which is located on the other end of the house. That was actually about ten feet more than she turned out to need, but she wanted to err on the side of guesstimating high rather than low. All this had me wondering why they didn't just give her a laptop, but she said those were in short supply and being reserved for people who have to go out in the field.
"The heck is this?"I looked around. "You mean you don't know?"
Crowley looked at me. "Looks like those things they used to have all over London."
My person looked around. "Ask the Doctor when she and Maddy get back. They'll explain it to you,"
He's taking quarantine hair to the extreme, I think. Everyone's starting to look floofy because all the salons are still closed. Some people are complaining about that. They also don't like that they can't go hang out and browse in stores - right now you really need to just get what you need and come back home - and that they have to wear masks. My person said that she'll deal. She also just ordered a set of masks so she won't have to try to wash hers and get it dry quickly.
"Dear, does this mean you'll still be home most days?"My person nodded. "Yeah. I don't have the schedule out past the end of next week, though."
Indy and Celine were going to go to one of the parks, but it's raining. I think they were also concerned about distancing. They decided to stay in and stream a movie instead.
"Do you know how to fly a plane?""Surely you can't be serious!"
"I an serious, And don't call me Shirley."
"Airplane."
"Ah. Excellent choice."
"Dear, isn't that dress a bit - revealing? Especially for a proper young cherub?"
"Dad?""Yes, dear?"
"Don't start."

This is the living room with the new sofa, but before we moved the desk in. The desk is now where the printer table was. The printer is back on the dining room table and there's now a random table in the kitchen because it didn't fit through the spare bedroom door. The random table, I mean, not the kitchen.
Sofa fort. Fawn talked Crowley out of sleeping until July.
Thicc boi is thicc.
