Incidentally, I am sorta here

    Keeping the two or three who follow me up to date. I am still very much alive and well. COVID-19 might be hard at work cleaning up air pollution and sequestering people but I am still here and making my typical inane comments.

    Manitoba's school divisions have gone into shut-down. The kids are going on a long Spring Break and all the staff are working. Essential services, folks. My school division has decided that we can work from home next week and the week after Spring Break. What can a library tech do? I have a list of stuff I can do from home.

    While I get that working from home is a good idea when there's a nasty virus swimming through many bloodstreams, it's hard to stay focused on work when yer at home. Better safe than sorry, of course.

     Now for a blast from the past. From a couple of diary entries from 2009, some most excellent history.
 
"I bought Sims 3 today and installed it. That game is going to eat up a fair bit of my time, good journal.[...] “Sims 3” is an awesome game. Nothing is in stasis in the neighbourhood. People age just like the family you’re playing, so you only have a while to know them, just as your family has only a short time to do their best. So many options and things to do. Definitely a wonderful game! One that shall rule my days for a long while to come."

     Lovely bit of history, eh? I finally got around to typing this part of an old diary out and yes, this game still rules my days. That is all for now.

BYE.
