I am Procrastinator…

Hear me... get back to you later with that one. Nothing really matters I've done nothing but avoid things for the last couple of days. And why not? It's not like anyone's really doing anything now. Except I have a to-do list a mile long of all the things I wanted to progress with when …

The Quarantine Diaries: Wins

As much as I want to cry myself into oblivion for all the things I'm not getting to do, I figured a better use of my time would be to look for the positives, no matter how small. I have a home with a study and lots of books, I have no children, I have …

The Quarantine Diaries

Well. Fuck. For years I've been teased and mocked for stocking up on essential foods, tins and pasta, and having an apocalypse plan.

Day 6

I'm in Day 6 of quarantine... but day 5 of not having left the house at all. I regret not panic buying a hamster. e x
