I haven’t really posted because I really don’t want to do a bunch of solidarity/we’re all sitting around in our homes during the pandemic posts. But, some stuff has happened since my last post around the time of my birthday.
- Along with my septum piecing, now both of my ears are pierced.
- I still somehow haven’t had a drink since January.
- I’m back on the national board of my fraternity.
- I’m on the board of a statewide journalism group.
- My publication won two best in show and one sweepstakes awards from the state press association. We have haters now, and it is delicious.
- The back of my house still isn’t finished, thanks to COVID-19.
- I took another vacation and wound up in a hotel in Roanoke for two nights. It was a much needed escape for us.
- I’m still (mostly) writing paragraphs of solidarity for work twice a week, and if I ever bothered to copy and past them here, I’d probably had some consistent content, but again, I really don’t want to chronicle sitting around because of COVID.
- Obviously, I miss going on and writing about road trips, concerts, seeing friends and whatever.
- I feel OK despite all that’s going on. I think my second vacation helped. But I miss Richmond. I miss New York. I even miss Hampton Roads and D.C.
- I’m growing my beard back and started shaving my head.
