Dear Diary –
Today marks 8 full months since I was in the office. I think it’s taking its toll.
We had a conference call last week, and I had the feeling people were judging my Zoom room. It may have been the teacup collection on the pool table, or the old Pinocchio marionette hanging from the ceiling … but it’s not right.
Then there are times when I just stare at the computer after work’s over. And I wonder – does EVERYONE gets those ads for the giant Dog Face T-shirts or am I the only one? What could I possibly have clicked on?
I’ll be going on vacation this week. Can’t travel of course. Instead, I plan to visit the kids’ old bedrooms. See if any of ’em snuck back home.
My isolation beard has now reached six inches. My co-workers say it’s great, but I think they’re secretly relieved we’re not in the studio together.
They can think what they like. Bottom line – you don’t need a bib. And you don’t need to order dessert.
Under “Things I have Learned”:
– Agree on the Scrabble rules ahead of time unless you want to sleep alone.
– It’s possible that no one noticed you wore the same shirt all week.
– A mask always remembers what you ate yesterday.
And finally – things to remember should you ever drive again: The wiper lever is on the left, the signal lever is on the right – that’s why people were honking yesterday.
