What, then, shall we nail next to our front doors?

Is there an equivalent of “mba-kayere” one can intone?

I still think an upbeat attitude helps; also lots of Pynchon quotes;

(and darn it, vitamin c, at least some Sunny D, or Mr Orange Juice to take the edge off! A-and that melatonin and the Lion yoga asana, and how about vibrational remedies, starting with music?)
(Then too, a moderate, medicinal application of alcohol merits some investigation imho)

But Dave, hope you’re feeling better!

 New Orleans - never been there, but a friend told me years ago about her friend’s brother who crashed his car into a light pole downtown and when the cops came, he asked them to buy him a beer, and one of them walked across the street, bought him a beer, and gave it to him. Then they arrested him, but still. Not to mention the episode of Bones in New Orleans where things happened to Booth and Bones that they never could completely understand. But I digress.

 A good housecleaning is one more thing to live for (doing a laborious chore while feeling “peine, forte et dure” can be curative: I once overcame a terrible migraine by reflooring a bathroom eg)

and a chance to cast a ballot in November.

And there is even a possibility of another Pynchon novel.

While there’s life there’s hope (not to mention dope, which although it isn’t part of my current setup, holds some curative properties in general according to some whose testimony I’m not inclined to completely rule out)(a co-worker a few years ago, a fellow client at the halfway house in 1978, the counter guy at the 7-Eleven just last night...)

caronavirus symptoms:as a soar throat day one, followed by high fever next

of how badly my place needed cleaning when they found me dead made me
wonder if I could clean while dying. I don't usually do drama, but I might
be going there now.  These are dramatic times.
