march forward
Mar. 17th, 2021 09:38 pmWell, it's been a year since COVID hit us like a ton of bricks. Since then I have cut my own hair, ordered cat food online for curbside pickup, done four virtual Anime Hell screenings, watched a bunch of TV, and walked a lot of trails. I haven't seen a movie in a theater in more than a year. Haven't eaten in a restaurant since last summer. Haven't seen most of our Toronto pals in person in more than a year. Haven't seen my family or friends in Georgia or the rest of the United States since Dec. 2019.
Yesterday I was home from work getting a new battery put in the car. After that I had to pick up something I'd ordered for "curbside pickup" at a store I thought was freestanding but was inside the mall. Haven't been inside a mall since sometime last Fall, I think. Anyway there was a maskless guy in the hallway to the washrooms arguing with security staff. Forcing him to wear a mask was "discrimination," apparently. He wasn't there when I got out, so who knows if he wised up and left or if he took it to the next level and earned a criminal trespass.
I am sketching regularly again, I am working on a new comic story, it's supposed to warm up this weekend and I'm going to get back out on the bike if I can. By my calculation we won't be getting our vaccinations until sometime this summer. I'm hoping situations will stabilize enough for us to get across the border for a visit in July. Fingers crossed.
Been a long year.
