That really sucks. Not being able to play, or get back to MA, puts you in a position that is worse than mine here in CA. Hope things improve for you, @bobyoung53.

Yes this is pretty much how I spent this birthday
I put a Panasonic 8 track in my '61 Impala and put 4 round 8" coaxial speakers in the back deck. I had to cut it and it was not fun, I don't even remember how I did it, I was 17. My buddies and I decided to go out riding around one night with the obligatory canned refreshments. My mother asked me to bring her to the Mart the next day and I had noticed the 8 track didn't sound right so while she was inside I went to check out my speakers (no grilles) and at least one was filled right to the brim with liquid refreshment. My mother never said a word.
The airport's open now, and hopefully will stay open, we're heading back in April and from what I've heard there's not a lot happening in Mass either. I play just about everyday anyway, lots of time unplugged while I'm watching TV
.
Good bass face, looks like you're playing some Iron Maiden, Iron Man or something like that. I've always believed in wrenching the sound out of a bass with brute force.

I remember feeling old when I turned thirty, forty was worse, etc. Now I'm over the hill and don't care anymore.

Looks like your amp got falling down drunk. As I said earlier, the next (birthday) milestone is a long way off. Once you hit 65, you can count backwards each year from now on.
Seasoned.I made it, 65 qualifies me as an old lady!
This is pretty funny.

And therein a tale
A ten o'clock salon appointment in anticipation of an evening at a brewpub that has limited table service finds me at home for a hour's video conference. Dinner's off, brewpub's closed, and I've two videos due Friday for the cohort. One's the groove and fill and the other is a blindfolded note finder. Beginner stuff, lesson one. Right. And I've got my hair cut and styled, hook up the DAW and camera
and do a few takes until I'm reasonably happy.
But not happy enough to post these in public
so a screenie 
Ya, I couldn't find your video title on YouTube...I tried!And therein a tale

More than once I've considered recording via DAW and making it appear I'm mikeing a hundred dollar practice amp!
(angled up in that monitor position makes it a breeze to play at low volume)
I tried to post a video of me playing to YouTube once, but they said that they have standards even though their standards are exceedingly low.
BTW, I am home now. I told my wife that she gets to be my private duty nurse and that she had to do anything I asked her to do. Let's just say that she was not amused.

A summoning bell at bedside is probably right out.
Pleased you're home!
