LOL I'm so sorry.
The book did FLY like a seagull, I will give it that.
Seagulls are gross anyway, always eating detritus of washed up decaying crab.
Or perhaps the magic in that book is just WAY beyond my spiritual capacities. Anything is possible. (Except turning into a darn seagull, that is.)

How ironic.. people complained about wanting time off from work, or how work affected their family life... spending time with the children. They now have all time in the world, surrounded by their children and SO , yet still complaining, and wanting to get back to work. indecisive asses, pick a misery already.
While the smarter percentage is enjoying sleeping in, doing absolutely nothing, or making the best of a tough situation, that is completely out of their control.

Yabut it's that out of our control thing that's the problem. My retired life is really not much different than before, but now, I'm reading and playing with the computer because there isn't a choice.
Nothing to do with that... my everyday lifestyle has not changed very much. Yes rhere's a few things that I don't have the access to do right now, but it's not a big deal.
Most ordinary people don't really venture out very far from home. And if they do, it's not often.
Most people don't do a heck of a lot in their spare time or while working for that matter. Hence hours spent on the internet. Whether it's streaming or social media'n, shopping....
The beaches limited, parks limited, a lot of self indulging perks are closed, things that people really just took for granted and probably didn't visit very often anyway. We are down to the basic fundamentals of existence, The realization of not being in actual control and our false sense of entitlement has smacked us arrogant humans senseless .
Our grip on reality we lost a long time ago. Our basic survival instincts were lost centuries ago. We have become spoiled. We can't handle basic life and folks are losing it.
A reality check is exactly what we needed. Unfortunately it came with deadly
consequences.

I been really sick with the COVID my lifestyle took a big hit. But I am trying to reenter like, normal life and well I have a TON of applications done.
I need external structure of working for happiness. It's like, I suck at self management seriously. I would have a hard time self managing a private practice although honestly you don't make that much money unless you are exceptional and bulld a base so broad and wide. I referred countless people to my therapist over the years and they all adored her.
It's the building the base bit.... I'd rather work for someone else, because I suck at "me."
I now think I am developing pneumonia and URGH. If I do I will be MAD but today, no fun. Nor is sleeping 12 hour a day for COVID recovery which appeared to be necessary.
Oh well STEROIDS!! I'm sure ya'all can't WAIT. Although they make this less psychotic corticosteroid thing which I was like DOCTORS you all KNOW I am a Bipolar freak! Why am I finding out 25 years into my illness? I am demanding them for everything from now on.
If I could have demanded them for my mother like when I was a teen growing up and she had sundial meltdowns man, like twice a week. Me and my sis had to talk her off the ledge, very traumatizing. I WOULD have demanded them with ALL MY might because the corticosteroids are like AWESOME I don't even get all that wild. She probably would NOT have been as psycho which is why I have LONG forgiven her. But, it got pretty tedious.
I am SO sick of being sick. I would like an in person doc appointment on Monday. That is what I am wishing for I might even go for a significant drive for one.

and me, my life hasn't really changed even a little bit...except for the wife having commandeered my "office" to work at home...I'm sorry dude. You know you are never getting that room back, right? It's this nesting thing. Your office is now an "outbuilding" on the property I might a) hope you have one and b) start hooking up utilities and whatnot.

LOL he doesn't look annoyed enough. But I ain't posting a pic of me in this condition even if I could I had to autocorrect every other word.

I was kinda kidding although I do feel like I am dying. The very sweet husband was like "Give me a list." My mom convinced me to do telemedicine and like the woman was an ER doc and seemed knowledgeable. She reviewed my symptoms and treatment and was like, "Despite the test, she gave me a LONG explanation of why false negatives happen and it's because COVID hangs out in your lungs so nasal swabs are "stupid." She is like sometimes it shows up sometimes it does not. She really really wanted me to go to the hospital and her manner suggested I was NOW getting the COIVD pneumonia and was like, "You are going to end up in the hospital sooner or later. I was like, "I vote for later, later later" and told her I would see a PCP tomorrow and he could do a chest X-ray or whatever stat, and if my numbers worsened I would have the husband drive me to the hospital but not one second before and I refused to DIE in Douglas Hospital if at all possible. At least Sierra Vista I would drive to.
The darling husband is going to pick up my script, make chicken soup and get me the list of thing from Walmart.
Annoyance. I don't want to BE ON a vent, you can't even TALK.
Yeah I don't think I'm quite there yet. I do think I need a chest X ray.
It was nice to hear a competent doctor who is an ER tell me I had CLASSIC COVID progression and I DEFINITELY had it, she was certain. THIS IS BECAUSE THERE IS A GINGANTIC STONER DO
BAG on here who is being a total ashole. A COMPLETE and utter prat. I finally had to block him because I was praying for him to die. That just wrong (of me) but WOW HE SUCKS HE IS THE DUMBEST PERSON I have interacted wit for a LONG time I guess that is what happens when you are constantly high.P
LOL
