I am too. I made the determination that I am not on the cusp as much as I proclaim to be. I am a closeted extrovert who claims to be part introvert because introverts seem to be more woke, lol.

I have that urge too, but I fight it by reminding myself to assume that everything that arrives with have corona germs all over it. |

If I stay away from the news, I am doing quite well. As a friend said, I’ve been training for this. I don’t socialize a lot and tend to work a lot. I was a bit worried about not getting my socializing in at work, but I have been face timing a coworker everyday. It is a bit of social interaction for me and he is huge extrovert so it works.
I live alone so I was a touch worried in the beginning, but I think it will be okay. I got my dog. I am saving tons of money. As long as my parents stay healthy — everything will be okay for me personally. |

| TBH if this illness disproportionately affected young people and businesses offered early hours for people aged 18-25 to shop old people would have lost their damned minds and gotten up in arms about "ageism." |

| I haven't seen my 8 year old in three hours. I think he's in the spare room watching YouTube videos. |

Yeah this is why I let the nanny go and sent kids to preschool. A bit of confusion about whose house it was on the part of the nanny. Just didn’t work for me. |

| Confession I wouldn’t admit anywhere? I LOVE being quarantined and Teleworking full time. I’m completely privileged because I have an awesome DH and kids that are doing really great with this quarantine and a truly great au pair to help out 6 -8 hours a weekday while we telework. Total introvert here and feeling like a weight off my shoulders when everyone is on the same page re not socializing. I even got slightly annoyed when I saw my Facebook friend had organized a virtual happy hour. Part of me was like: cmon, can’t we all just be alone with ourselves for a bit? I know I know. |

Same. I also love there’s no societal expectation to socialize anymore. No friends demanding I meet them for coffee just so they can complain an hour about their husband. No one begging me to pick up or watch their kids — JUST TODAY. No relatives trying to one up me on vacations - we’re heading to Sydney for a week, where are you and Steve going? It’s just so so nice and peaceful. |

I agree, I'm happy about the bolded. Although for me, it's friends bragging. We're headed to Europe for Spring Break, where are you going? Before I felt guilty about not being able to go somewhere. Now we're all in the same boat. |

I knew people were posting in the travel forum happy that other people’s vacation plans were being canceled.
There was a distinct gleeful “haha” tone to a lot of those posts about borders closing and flights being canceled. That’s a really shitty attitude to take btw. You should be embarrassed to admit that. |
