LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 1: TRON: Legacy (21314), 2018. Modified to extend the base to fit Quorra. The original TRON inspired me to get into computer programming. I would have killed for this set back in 1982…

LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar
Someone made a joke on Twitter yesterday about seeking a quarantine advent calendar, and I thought: why not? So without further ado I present my very own LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar™️!
The Cookening
Just took possession of a second freezer. Now the cookening can begin!
70 cases are repatriated citizens
CNN for the past several weeks: “There are x cases of coronavirus in the US. 70 cases are repatriated citizens. (x-70) cases were detected and tested in the United States.”
Just stop. As x grows exponentially no one gives a shit that 70 cases were repatriated from abroad.
I ❤️ Siri
Me in 2020: Hey Siri, set a timer for 8 minutes.
Siri: …
Me: Hey Siri, set a timer for 8 minutes.
Siri:
Me: curses and manually creates a timer.
8 years in and this is where Siri’s at? Really?
Cook & Eat
I WILL COOK AND EAT MY WAY THROUGH THIS CRISIS!
More music
I’ve been working from home for the past 18 years, but now with my wife and son home all day with me, it’s a different beast. (Not to mention all the coronavirus anxiety.) I’ve been listening to more music lately to help cut down on distractions.
Social distancing
We’re not on lockdown (yet), but there’s honestly not much to do outside other than buy groceries or exercise. Going for walks in the farm fields should be harmless enough.
Swiss lockdown
Kudos again to the Swiss government yesterday for shutting down all (non-essential) shops, restaurants, bars, leisure facilities, etc until 19 April. Better late than never. Let’s do this!
The Final Wipedown
I’m disinfecting a few surfaces around the house before I go to bed and singing to myself, “It’s the Final Wipedown” to the tune of Europe’s 1986 hit.
