I don’t want a lethal plague or epidemic to sweep across the country and ravage the city I inhabit, partly because I would be among the first to sicken and die, also because I would have to watch my friends die, even if I didn’t. But at the same time, I’ve felt for the last week or so like this town I live in is unreasonably crowded. Every time I approach an intersection, I’m overwhelmed by the sheer number of people on the sidewalks. Lines everywhere are too long. At the bakery I like to visit some mornings, I can’t seem to get a table anymore, as they are all taken. I reiterate: I don’t want a disease to wipe these people out, so that’s not solution to this problem I’ve decided to have. Maybe some of them could move to Jefferson City
