Cleaned
July 12th 2020 Today was an incredibly — if not uncharacteristically — productive day. I set up my new office. I deep cleaned the fridge. And then I deep cleaned the rest of the kitchen. I did two loads of … Continue reading Cleaned

Napped
July 11th 2020 Today I was supposed to set up my new office but I’m hungover so instead I mostly napped and ate leftover cold pizza and it’s gotta be said that leftover cold pizza is loads better than fresh … Continue reading Napped
Kinda
July 10th 2020 Today it was almost a normal Friday at work. We left the office at 12 and then went to the pub and didn’t go back. Oh the good old days. We used to do that most Fridays and then, yknow, corona. Other than the fact the waitresses refused to actually pass us our drinks and or food because, yknow, corona, it was almost normal. Kinda. But they kinda just put them all nearby and hoped for the best. There was a lot of food. Also, beer. Very little work. But that’s what fridays used to be like. … Continue reading Kinda

July 9th 2020 Today for Spence’s last night in the flat we ordered a takeaway, drank some beer, and watched the football. That’s also what we did on our first night in the flat so it was a nice cyclical … Continue reading Sol
Disassemble
July 8th 2020 Today I disassembled an old bed and then assembled half of a new bed. Thankfully, by that I don’t mean that I gave up halfway through and decided to sleep on just a mattress tonight. Instead I … Continue reading Disassemble
Voluntary
July 7th 2020 Today I was back in the office for the first time in over 3 months. I immediately, yet accidentally, flouted the return-to-work rules by not sanitising my hands on the way in (I had a coffee in each hand) and then followed up my flouting with some more flouting by walking through the office without a mask on. A good start. I only lasted like three hours. It got to lunchtime and I was told that, because, y’know, Covid, we couldn’t use the microwave and also couldn’t use any of the plates. I thought without a microwave … Continue reading Voluntary
Doubly
July 6th 2020 Today I started to do the admin I need to do to prepare for my flatmate moving out on Friday. Oh, btw, for the people in my life reading this who I have not yet told: my flatmate is moving out on Friday. Originally I wanted to move out, because I’m at the point in my life now where I want my own space. It’s a thing that we tried for six months because it was convenient for both of us, but, and I know Covid is repsonsible for most of this, it was becoming tricky sharing … Continue reading Doubly
Same
July 5th 2020 Today I’m at the point of lockdown where every day is starting to feel the same. I have the same breakfast every day (two eggs, philly, sliced ham, and rocket in a bagel), I have coffee at the same time every day (one at 10 and one at 2), I go for the same run, at the same time, on the same route, for the same distance every day (a 5k route around Pittville Park), I eat the same dinners (Asian-inspired meat with noodles and/or rice), I go to bed at the same time (11pm). There’s not … Continue reading Same
Allowed
July 4th 2020 Today I went to the pub because we’re allowed to do that now. No, the irony is not lost on me that today is Independence Day. This morning I still felt pretty weird about going, but actually … Continue reading Allowed
Rules
July 3rd 2020 Today I’m not sure if I want to go to the pub tomorrow or not. We’ve booked a table at a pub nearby, and we can technically be there all day. And we’re technically allowed to be there. But also I kinda feel like I’m still breaking the rules if I go. I had my back to work briefing earlier that will allow me to go back into the office from Tuesday if I so please, and because I’m quite keen to get back into the office, I kind of don’t like the idea of spending 8 … Continue reading Rules
