Jan. 27th, 2021 07:08 pmToday was tiring. Mostly just because it was an early day - since Alex had his doctor's appointment, I had to go to work an hour and a half early. (But my manager was fine with it, and I also got to leave early, so that bit is fine.)
Taylor and I are planning to do a sort of virtual hangout day on Friday. They've had a couple on-call weekends, which means they get a comped day of PTO, which they'd often take on one of my days off so we could get together. I think that's been the single hardest thing about Covid for me - that I can't go hang out with them. (Obviously there are a LOT of difficult things about a global pandemic, and not visiting family in a different household is the right thing to do, but it's still hard.) We've visited through the door a couple times, or distanced across mom's front yard at Christmas, but that's been brief.
We'll probably listen to some podcast episodes in sync, and they may try to stream some Okami, which was the game we were playing through together. It won't be quite the same, but I'm looking forward to it.
This week has remained really tough for writing. I forced another 230-odd words out last night, but it was a struggle. Gonna aim for at least that much again tonight, even though I really just kind of want to go to bed. Hopefully I'll get better sleep than last night, and manage a productive Thursday. My plans with Taylor mean that tomorrow is my only day to get shit done, lol.
