"Squitters and Collywobbles"

“أن تكون حزينًا يعني أن يلاحقك سوء الطالع ، فلا شيء يحدث كما كنت تتمناه” ― الطاهر بن جلون, البلد

I agree.

The Queen thinks she had an annus horribilis. Her castle burned down. So what! Big deal! It was nothing like my last year I was overjoyed at the passing of 2019. The things I could tell you, but I am not going to. Instead, I shall attempt to return to the positive bloke I was...you know.... before my annus horribilis.

(later in the day)My road to positivity just got blocked!

Apparently the apocalypse is upon us!

I just got home from the grocery store. This store and the next one were sold out of toilet paper and hand sterilizer. People are afraid of being quarantined by the coronavirus. O.K. this virus attack is a little terrifying, but toilet paper!!! I can understand using skin sanitizer but I don't get the demand for TP. Even the one-ply was gone! Do these people plan on living on the toilet for the quarantine period? How many times does one go to the bathroom, even if you are afflicted by the Aztec two-step, 2 - 5 times per day, a lot, but not enough to warrant a run on toilet paper (get the pun?) If you are a parkie, you will be lucky with one movement every three days. Wicked constipation is a symptom of PD. It is formidable. It's an hour-long gut-wrenching, wailing knockdown, which the parkie always wins but, winning aside, he knows he has been in a fight. There is always that good feeling of accomplishment at the conclusion of the ordeal, but as somebody said "constipation is a sign of good health...in Pomeranians"

Long live Montezuma's revenge"
