1. Are you an Essential Worker? Nope! But I'm able to do my job from home, and since a large part of it is working with e-books, I'm actually doing things that bring revenue to my company.

2. How many drinks have you had since the quarantine started? Maybe three, and those my usual drink size (i.e. what most people would consider half a drink). I may cut it out for the duration; possibly it's coincidence that I feel extra down the next day, but even so I don't need anything to further damp my mood.

3. If you have kids... Are they driving you nuts? No more than usual. It helps that I have a stay-at-home spouse, so I'm not having to wrangle them while I'm trying to work.

4. What new hobby have you taken up during this? None. I'm spending time with my old hobbies, knitting and spinning.

5. How many grocery runs have you done? Our household or me? I've done one, when I had to pick up an Amazon package from Whole Paycheck anyway; that was on 27 March, and other than . At this point, other than taking walks late at night, the only time I've left the house since March 27 has been to donate blood.

6. What are you spending your stimulus check on? If we receive one, which I'll believe when I see it in the account, part's going into the kids' savings, and the rest I'm putting towards buying stuff at local businesses when they reopen.

7. Do you have any special occasions that you will miss during this quarantine? Depends how long it lasts.

8. Are you keeping your housework done? No more than I did pre-quarantine.

9. What movie have you watched during this quarantine? A couple of MCU movies.

10. What are you streaming with? The extent of our household streaming is watching free stuff on YouTube.

11. 9 months from now is there any chance of you having a baby? Is there a non-zero chance? Sure. Given my age, is that chance pretty low? Yes. Further comment would be TMI.

12. What's your go-to quarantine meal? Don't really have one.

13. Is this whole situation making you paranoid? No. Depressed, possibly. Paranoid, no.

14. Has your internet gone out on you during this time? Not so far, knock wood.

15. What month do you predict this all ends? Haven't the foggiest.

16. First thing you’re gonna do when you get off quarantine? Depends on the timing of the end of quarantine. Go to work or go to a restaurant.

17. Where do you wish you were right now? In my house, but with the rest of the household staying somewhere else.

18. What free-from-quarantine activity are you missing the most? Tie between folk dance and improv class.

19. Have you run out of toilet paper and hand sanitizer? No, and didn't have in the first place -- we have soap and running water, so we have no need for hand sanitizer at home.

20. Do you have enough food to last a month? Yes, though we would be really bored and possibly slightly malnourished by the end, and the kids would be complaining the whole time.
