Here we go

It was pretty obvious that this was going to happen, but my dayjob officially called it today: all staff will be required to work from home indefinitely, effective Monday morning.

With a bunch of help from T, I spent the last half hour or so getting myself set up at my desk, so I can switch between my work laptop and personal laptop with little trouble. I'm not really a fan of working from home, but of course I see the necessity. So I'll do my best, just like the rest of us.

This whole thing started with the cancellation of all office social events, including a game night on Tuesday. So a group of us played pictionary online at https://www.drawasaurus.org, and it was an excellent way to blow off some steam. We decided to keep it going, and now we have online gaming hours scheduled for three days next week -- more pictionary, Codeword, and charades, which ought to be entertaining via webcam. Whatever we can do to keep building community in isolation is certainly a good thing.
