    It was just a phase and it has passed lol

    You are safe. Too lazy even to send a FR without a message. I’ll try again tomorrow.

    I'm locked in this... this... this.... place, yeah, this place with these people.... I don't think they're real people... they're like lizard people , only without the lizard part ... and I have steak knives, they are sharp... maybe a little too sharp.... the walls... they're moving, they're moving in towards me... but the steak knives won't help with the walls... and the same song keeps playing on the radio, over and over and over again.... and the radio is now unplugged and the song keeps playing on the radio, over and over and over again & the walls keep moving and the lizard people aren't going away, they just keep laughing and laughing and laughing....

    :( Oh, boo... Yeah, I feel badly for how others are feeling. It's almost impossible to make lockdown thoroughly enjoyable. Too much of some things, not enough of others.

    When I went for a long walk yesterday, there were at least a dozen people walking or riding bikes (I normally come across none) & everyone had that suspicious, haunted, hostage look about them & acted strangely... no smiles or pleasantries exchanged with others, no talking even to each other... I'd never felt so awkward around others, not knowing if I should exit stage left as they passed, jump right, cross the street, wait for them to move... we all acted like we'd never seen people before.

    Inside, I'm alone... so, I don't encounter laughing lizard people, but I sincerely believe the appliances are plotting against me. I'm sure of it... all that conspiratorial humming in mocking tones.

    Hope your week gets easier as days tick off.

    Stay healthy, Everyone!

    I usually WFH, so the gym was my main social activity and opportunity to perv, I mean, people watch 👀. When this is over, the regulars at the gym are all getting bum slaps

    This is me, 110%.





    ..... although, you forgot to capitalize Perv.

    PERV 😁

    Tonight I could use the biggest hug from one of them. I'd give up my hot cheetos addiction for it.

    Whoah...too far

    I’d like to go to a McDonald’s and ask people for bites of their burgers. However, I am enjoying zoom meetings. Every time I pay one of my children to pretend to murder me on camera. It’s great fun.

    You're bang on about how people are acting on the streets these days. Strangest thing I've ever seen.

    I did a Zoom Trivia with one of the trainers and a group of people from both of the gyms. I wanna organize a trivia now. I’m desperate for adult interaction I’d say. (And I did get 3rd place. Somehow. I’m as surprised as you are.)

    Five kids? Hell, I'd be desperate for some alone time...

    Note the “adult interaction” portion of today’s post.

    I live alone, and thought that one kid was too much at times. My respect to you and others with multiple kids. ;)

    Though, I can completely understand wanting adult interaction. ;)

    I'm still getting by on Skype calls and the Internet for contact. I know it's not *quite* the same, but it's better than nothing.

    Really what's driving me bonkers is the lack of being able to go see/do anything. Just when we were allowed to go places and places were starting to open up again, the place where I live decided to put everyone on lock down again (which I understand why).

    It would help if people would wear their masks and keep up with hygiene while out and about. It would help out everyone a bunch.

    Not me. I'm an introvert, like being alone, talking to myself, and with people on forums. I just miss my local library. :(
