It's been a long time since I've posted in Menacing Miscellaneous (what do you mean it's not called that anymore?), but these really are strange times. I am presently concluding week two of my own medically-mandated twelve-week self-isolation. In many ways, this does not involve a great deal of alteration to my usual routine; I live a somewhat hermetical existence, and am fortunate, as one with a health condition that makes me particularly vulnerable, to have a great deal of support. But there are bitter disappointments to this. I am something of a walker, and will miss visiting the wild places at their loneliest and feeding the local crows; and as the weather improved I was hoping to perhaps take Antenora to afternoon tea again, and we have a number of castles and landmarks we looked forward to exploring. wow Dante I cant believe you refused to post in this thread until its page count reached the hitler number (1488)

It's the Russian form of my name, I believe. I am sure this is what THE PERSON WHO CHANGED IT had in mind.

In Portuguese, "Germes" means "Bacteria and viruses".

Thanks, captain obvious.
Glad to hear you're safe from the virus, Dante, considering your condition. I didn't know Antenora lived close to you, or is she visiting? Rather dangerous to go traveling these days.

Turns out it takes literally being unable to leave my house to bring me back to 667. Just wanted to leave a note saying I hope you are all faring well in these uncertain times.

I think I learned more about Dante on his post here than in the last 5 years at 667.

Good to see you, cwm: how are things going? If you don't mind me asking, are you literally literally unable to leave your house, and if so why?

So I was cleaning up my kitchen, and I put a bag of stuff away in a cupboard, and I heard a sound like a dog barking. If there is a dog living in my cupboard, I feel I should have been told about it.

reading through your stories about being stopped- i heard random people are impersonating police officers and pulling people over in some states if they are out during the quarantine. i have been reading a lot more during the quarantine but i'm very upset about what's going on. it feels like my life was finally on track and now everything is on hold, as i'm sure many of you are feeling. my boyfriend keeps reminding me that at times like this we should be thankful we only have to worry about the two of us an our bird and not any kids we want to have, and he's right, but i'm worried i won't be able to have kids later due to all of this.

What does one thing have to do with the other, if you don't mind my asking?
Also, people impersonating police officers to pull other people over sounds scary.

I'm just worried because of my age that depending on how long this goes my window to have kids is shrinking outside of my control. And we both want to be married before we have kids so just timeline wise - now all of the major life events I was anticipating happening within this year and next year(engagement, getting a house, married, kids etc) are being put on hold again. It's just very frustrating.
