Whelp, this is it. The last day of my self-isolation.
Possibly the last day of my first wave isolation, but as much as I love staying home and writing I obviously hope the province and country are recovering and moving towards something resembling “normalcy”, whatever that means.
I can’t claim I’m excited to be going back to work, but my boss is being pretty conscious of the health and safety risks, and I’m in a privileged position in a lot of ways, so things could be much, much worse. And my workplace is pretty chill in the grand scheme of things, so there is that.
I have a mask for tomorrow and a few more that hopefully will show up early next week, but it’s going to be weird to be wearing it for 7 straight hours. And I’m not sure how to handle lunch… I may just skip it tomorrow, since I only have the one mask and you shouldn’t be taking it on and off during the day. Such weird times, such weird times…
Anyway, it is what it is. I’ll keep everyone updated on how things progress from here out, as per usual, and try to keep up the multiple-posts-a-week jive I’ve got going.
In unrelated news, I finished (re)reading Watchmen, and that was a pleasure despite how grim it is. The next book I have to read for class is The Giver by Lois Lowry, and this will be the first book for this course I haven’t read yet! Looks depressing at a quick glance, but I love me some good sci-fi (obviously!) so I look forward to the inspiration I will gain from it!
I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!
