How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
Each evening, I have been photographing the view from the window in my room. The pandemic and the near-constant state of being cloistered indoors has me cherishing whatever little of the outside I have access to, and I find myself increasingly fascinated by the houses in the apartment complexes opposite with the light in their windows. They make wonderful patterns, every day a different one depending on who is home. It is an interesting and heartwarming activity to try to pick up bits and pieces of people's lives from what little I can see. I even feel something akin to friendship and camaraderie towards some of these homes, especially when it's really late at night and I see a house or two with its lights still on; it's like a murmur that reassures me that I'm not alone.

How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
I have headaches almost evert day. I've never had migraines before, but people tell me that this is what I'm having. I almost always wake up with them, They are almost always in the right side of my head starting from my temple and parked right behind my eye, and they last ALL DAY! No matter what I take for them, or what I do they won't go away. I'm guessing that they are from stress because I clench my teeth all the time. I worry. I worry about my kids. I worry about my wife. I worry about our money situation and about the gross amount of overtime I'm working right now. I know that makes no sense, but it's a true thing as irrational as it is. I just don't get it. My wife and I will be getting my first dose of the immunization next week. I hope that helps.
