Ok, so this is too mild for the Pit but as I watch our Coronavirus updates regularly I am getting a little buggy whenever our Lieutenant Governor, John Husted, speaks.  
His fidgeting drives me nuts as he’s always straightening his stack of papers, making what I can only guess are senseless scribbles on his documents, and playing with his pen.  
I find it to be bad form to be honest. He really ramps it up when being asked a question by a reporter where he won’t even make eye contact with them (or the camera) while they speak.

That’s all. I’m crabby and need to get a decent night’s sleep. Carry on.

_Bad form?_

Just had to look at a couple of short Husted videos to investigate the fidgetyness, and, well, the guy [does use his hands a lot](https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?v=881181325587775&ref=watch_permalink).

I imagine if you’re catching his act on TV and simultaneous sign language translation, it could lead to migraines. 🙂
