I realize it's been awhile since I've last posted any news, but that's because there seems to be little news to post. As I'm sure you know, the first day or two after last weeks announcement, there was some panic and several news reports of the illness. But now all seems very quiet. Eerily quiet in fact.
There seem to be less people out on the streets. Hardly anyone has come into the video store over the past week, and the few who have have said and done little. The TV and radio all seem to be running fine, but everything is a rerun. Including live shows. Yesterday I went into the grocery store and I ended up walking out without paying for anything, because I couldn't find a single soul working there.
I know it seems odd that I'm roaming the world as the human race seems to be disappearing from it. It's just nothing seems all that threatening. It's all just really quiet. I'm going to head over to the video store now. I seem to be the only one around willing to open it up these days. And none of the managers are returning my calls. Why I'm even bothering to open it? I don't really know. Routine is a funny thing.
