Not kill, only make extremely uncomfortable... and maybe a little stuffy the next day. NOW LET ME THE HELL IN!!!!!!!!!!
I somehow have the feeling that the same people that are complaining loudly about not getting their relief checks yet are the same people that spend thousands of dollars on fireworks for two nights ago. People near me were setting off like professional stuff out of mortars. I would be surprised if no fingers were lost.
And every one of them broke rule number 2 of gun ownership as they fired randomly into the air. Ugh, people.
I used to live in the metro Detroit area, so it wouldn't surprise me if that sort of stuff happened there. Where I live now, gunshots aren't so common. I mean... they still happen sometimes, just not as much as they would out in someplace like Vegas.
I'm lucky I don't live in your reality. This side of the fourth wall is as awesome as I want it to be.
Well, I wasted about 12 hours last week on a project that I now have to start from scratch on. yay work.
Before the start of last week, my boss left to go on a family trip. When he got back and called me yesterday morning, he told me he had been around someone who was showing symptoms of the virus, so he was going to spend this entire week in quarantine at home. So since the 28th at the office, the only work-related stuff I've been doing is answering the phone, taking the mail back to my boss' office, and watering this large plant on the desk up front when it needs it. Otherwise I've been spending all my time typing, reading, trying (and failing) to improve my drawing ability, and playing stuff like Worms Armageddon on my laptop. Best part is? I'm getting paid for sitting around and doing nothing. I've been soloing my office for almost two weeks now, I interact with virtually no one in person, and I love it. Peace and quiet! It's wonderful! >^_^< (Yeah, it's only $8.50 an hour, but seriously.)
