I went in today but the office was almost empty, as was the bus. I haven't had to be any nearer to anyone than about three feet and I am completely alone in my office. I have Clorox.wipes, Purell, and Sani-Wipes for my hands and wash my hands frequently. I being careful but I still feel a little guilty.

What I really need is a second monitor for home so that I can be as productive at home as in the office.
