I’ve just heard a bit of bad news. Not sure how to cope with it.

Tomorrow is Monday.

@jpmens
Thanks for that.
I had hoped to manage to block it out until the alarm went off.

@jpmens

I didn't get it at first, and I figured more information would be forthcoming tomorrow.

@dvl what I could do tomorrow, if you need me to, is to say “today is Monday “
@jpmens Yes please.
@dvl sleep 7500 ; printf “today is Monday (for JP)\n”
@jpmens just checked in with my parents in NZ and, damn this Monday is contagious! The *whole country* is down with it. Everybody. I can’t believe it’s going to spread as far as Europe in a couple of hours. Nobody is safe!
@dch @jpmens yups, Australia checking in here. It’s serious.
@mavetju not you guys too? @jpmens
@dch @mavetju @jpmens dammit, now I got it also. This is baaaaaaad.
@ojs @mavetju @jpmens spread all over Europe now. Even my dentist has got it and she was fully masked up.
@dch @jpmens Not quite as bad as it could be - In the Otago region, Monday has been successfully cancelled for most of us, under the guise of "Otago Anniversary Day" - unless they work for the University, which still gets its full dose, because it turns out that there was actually no formal declaration of "Otago" and therefore no fixed date to have an Anniversary on, so the University changed theirs ...
