Quarantine Chronicles

 

I have seen a few comments on FB regarding my involvement in the development of CoVid 19 in RC or the Inland Empire and I have since heard that these stories are circulating in my community. When I say my community, I mean my church, neighbors, friends. I am addressing these comments or any other fears or stories that might be circulating.

I was immediately concerned and contacted Kaiser and left messages multiple times. I demanded to be tested because I wanted to make sure I knew if I had it or not.

I left one last spoonful of Haagan Daz in your pint. I'm sure you were looking forward to having it for your evening treat.

Which prompted a response: Here is my poem in response to the shocking confession of my sneaky little sister: You are not forgiven, not yet at least.
