With everything going on in the world right now, a good laugh has never been more important. For your amusement, we’ve put together this COVID-19 quarantine schedule that every Texan can relate to.
- Drag yourself out of bed and get ready for the day
Flickr/Camilla Salem …after hitting snooze five times, that is. Oh well – a few more minutes doesn’t hurt when you have nowhere to be!
- Chug coffee and eat breakfast
Flickr/Jarry Huddleston State pride helps us feel connected to one another during this period of social distancing. Plus, Texas-shaped waffles just taste better (it’s science.)
- Attempt to concentrate on working from home
Flickr/Aum Oer With toys spread out all over the house, dogs barking, and unlimited access to the kitchen for snacks, your cubicle might start looking pretty good.
- Get up to speed on the latest news updates
Flickr/bonsoni_uk AKA turn on the TV for about five minutes, panic, and turn it off again before logging onto Facebook and using memes as a form of escapism.
- Remember that Texans are tough enough to handle anything
Flickr/Jamie Nothing – not even a pandemic – can shake the passion of our collective spirit.
- Lunch
Flickr/frankieleon Gotta support local businesses during these volatile economic times! It’s not like you come here multiple times a week or anything…
- Make a mad dash for toilet paper
Flickr/Todd Morris You might have to hit up every H-E-B in town, but that extra half-hour of sleep was totally worth it.
- Shower and clean house
Flickr/TheeErin All this unprecedented free time, and cleaning is still the most unappealing task imaginable. But it’s never been more important to wash off those germs, so scrub away!
- Take a nap
Flickr/Massimo Peruffo All that worrying, cleaning, worrying, toilet paper buying, worrying… did we mention worrying? Anyway, it sure makes you tired. A quick (okay, hour-long) catnap should help.
- Dinner
Flickr/Kevin Nothing like a good ol’ fashioned hearty dinner to offer some semblance of normalcy. Chicken-fried steak never sounded so good!
- Dessert (plus drinks, of course)
Flickr/Jeff Sandquist With the smell of Texas sheet cake filling the kitchen (and a glass of wine in-hand), things almost seem okay for a second.
- Family time
Flickr/Mike_fleming Dust off that game of Monopoly you haven’t opened in decades and enjoy the distraction.
- Crawl into bed and hope this was all a dream
Flickr/Sean Hill Can we try again tomorrow?
