QOTD:  “When I grow up I’m going to be a tooth fairy and a fire hydrant.”

Curious child:  My son, not used to using video chat with his friends, thought he had to yell as loud as possible. There was no escape.

Notes:

Cold, wet rain today, making outside a somewhat less desirable place to be.

I doubled my son's permitted time in his Nintendo Switch to an hour and my daughter rediscovered her interest in puzzles. She is a tenth my age and can do puzzles I find challenging. Wild.

I am going to do my best to avoid dipping into the booze more than usual. I will normally have a couple cocktails on weekends and maybe one or two during the week, but I can see how easy it will be to have more when you suddenly have far less to do all day and are stuck inside avoiding COVID-19. Instead, I’m stepping-up my workout routine and getting the kids involved as much as they can.

Coincidentally, it’s St. Patrick’s Day. Can you make a green espresso?
