l33tminion | Olin Graduates Early

I was sipping tea this evening with honey from the Parcel Bees (Olin beekeepers extracurricular), and remembered something I left out of that last post. My alma mater is among the everything that's cancelled, campus is closing for the rest of the semester, classes moving online. Olin students on a day's notice, noting that further gatherings this year might not happen, organized an early commencement ceremony (video posted here). I'm so proud of those Olin students, carrying on the best of the student culture the college someone fosters so well. They're an irrepressible bunch.

Today was all right, the start of some time keeping contact to a minimum. Amazing how quick people can go from "maybe small gatherings are fine" to "maybe we shouldn't touch our mail". Already feeling the few holes in my grocery list. Delivery options are not available (I mean they're available for someone, but demand for the service is higher than the supply), and the grocery store is probably still crowded as more people do the rapid phase-transition from "this is fine" to "cancel everything".

My dad returned home to Cleveland, so hopefully that's all well.

I need to remember to call people. I mean, I wasn't doing enough of reaching out to friends in the first place.
