  • Sometimes You Need a Reset

    [COVID Day Five Hundred Something] I mean, there are some amazing reasons behind writing every single day. Even if every day isn’t a brilliant omg I can’t believe you said that day.

  • Is It Monday Yet?

    [COVID Day Five Hundred Seventy Three] As terribly excited as I am to start strength training and such on Monday at 0500 I am also absolutely NOT wanting to start strength training on Monday at 0500.

  • The Ten Day Work Trip

    [COVID Day Five Hundred Seventy] I finally packed. The day of the flight. And I made the flight.

And working The Booth.…

  • The Cough That Would Not Go

    [COVID Day Five Hundred Sixty Three] I have had a frakin’ cough for how long now and it’s NOT COVID but damn. Also, I am flying for work for the first time in two years. On Monday. I’M NOT FREAKING OUT YOU’RE FREAKING OUT Wish me luck.

  • Because You Mentioned It Enough…

    [COVID Day Five Hundred Fifty Nine] I’m listening, I’m just sometimes s l o w. I’ve switched the subtitle to remove ‘Dutch Lockdown’ because not only am I not living in the Netherlands anymore, but … there’s no lockdown either. The depressing part is that COVID is now a permanent part of our lives so…

  • I Exist!

    [Dutch Lock Down Day Five Hundred Fifty Four] It’s not a song or anything, I’m just saying I’m not a bot. I’m here. Just still… settling in and figuring things out. Like daily routines for example… I rip myself out of bed at seven twenty in order to get kids dressed but I forgot to…
