After thinking about it for a few hours and apparently making no one laugh, I removed it.

By bulging eyes were actually a laugh, but it felt wrong to laugh out loud at such horrors!

Looks more like incredulity.

I always use them in the sense of "OMG", but maybe that's just me?

I read and was moved by story, but hadn't formulated a response. There was some black comedy in there but response was more OMG like Robin. Good luck to you and Bob (and everyone else). This is likely to be worse before it is better. Be safe
PS I did laugh at blue tortilla story, and told Betsy

I gave Mary a quick summary of Jenise and Bob's trip, and her jaw dropped.

Jenise, did you save a copy? I think all of us would love it if you'd paste it back in again. :)

I originally wrote it here in real time. But yes, when I decided to delete it I made a copy and sent it to myself. I'll repost.
