I am in germany, so, a few things are different. But the stores, restaurants etc. are closed and until recently, the place where i live had an curfew after 21:00.

The first few weeks of the lockdown were good: After work i have written on a story i wanted to publish for a few years now, learned Rust, build an analog computer and worked on some side projects... but now my wife (who is lucky to work full time) and i are moving slowly to the funny farm. Dark and rainy weather, a complete lack of normal social interaction with people outside of work and not many distractions are taking its toll...



Ring up your friends and have quiz nights over Zoom. Takes time to organize, but works out OK.


If there’s anything likely to tip me over the edge (which I am thankfully not close to), it will be another Zoom call.
