what day is it

Tuesday.  I guess.  I didn't check my work email today, for I think the first workday in 5 off.  I helped a kid through a class meetup on Zoom, got a Tableau viz to work inside a SSR'ed SPA by uninstalling the react/node modules and sticking the embedding script inside the componentDidMount of page's React component, merged and deployed the new implementation of the website, did some yard cleanup while the kids did "recess", ate a homemade dinner, invented "pokemon pillow punch" to the delight of all three kids, did bedtimes, and relished the quiet thinking time of the evening to stay up too late, just like I've done since the schools closed.

Every day is much more alike now.  I go out knocking on neighbor's doors mostly on the weekend still, but I think the response rate is almost as good during the weekdays.  I've made a point to put on the "church" livestream on Sundays, but honestly deciding to resurrect our "going out to eat after church" in the form of pizza pickup and home-reheating seems like a bigger anchor to the rhythm of the week.

Virtual society is pretty good for shrinking the world.  I did an Online Facilitation training online yesterday.  I'll attend the now-virtual Future of Work conference next month.  I've been doing Authentic Relating via videoconference for the last 3 weeks.  There are more things I may check out soon, just because they wouldn't have been "local" before.  Interesting, and I wonder how sticky some of this will be...
