   Restoration of my C64 breadbin has been fun. Got my plane ready for annual   
   inspection. Restored a dead headset.   
      
   My spouse and I are closer now than ever, so that's great. I don't know.   
      
   You know, I find it really difficult to keep contact with my friends. They're   
   hard to have a sustained conversation with on text message and forget the   
   notion of talking on the phone. I have one friend who'll call to talk for any   
   period of time. The rest, nah.   
      
   It was like that before, but the lockdown made it worse.
