Thu Apr 23 06:00:01 EDT 2020 ======================================== Slept from ten-thirty to seven. Woke around three-thirty, and couldn't fall back to sleep until after five. Cloudy with rain showers likely. Highs in the mid 40s. East winds 10 to 15 mph. Chance of showers 60 percent. Work ---------------------------------------- - Laptop inventory for Heidi Done. - Review Bullseye invoice Done. - Call Sherri Done. - 2:30 PM Entrata RU call (what's RU? Utility billing?) Done. Didn't feel together enough to walk out outside today, but I jogged around the apartment for ten minutes. Home ---------------------------------------- - Instacart Done. Hopefully arriving between the 26th and 28th. - Any dumb creative thing Not really. - Go to bed early Upon reflection, I realized the feeling I had going into the office last night. Wearing a mask, no one else around, emergency lighting only, thermostats turned way down — it was the scene from a scifi horror movie where they board the abandoned space hulk. Chatted with Jay and Ed on Jitsi for quite a while.

Are we just finding more cases because we're finally running more tests? Maybe, but it's discouraging. Deaths have not shot up, I guess. https://covidtracking.com/data/state/michigan#historical Looks like maybe Michigan has more than doubled it's daily tests recently. Not sure where they got this number, but I heard on the news that we can know we're testing enough if we're seeing about 10% positive tests. 13%-ish today, which I guess is better than the 25–35% we had a couple weeks ago? ``` >>> ((35291-33966)*100)/10096.0 13.124009508716323 ``` Servings: grains 4/6, fruit 1/4, vegetables 2/4, dairy 2/2, meat 1/3, nuts 1/0.5 Brunch: English muffin with egg, avocado, and cheese; coffee; banana Lunch: English muffin with hummus, avocado, and onion.
