Captain’s Log | COVID 19 Sucks, but not for the reason you think…
Time it Takes to Read:
Since last Saturday I've barely left my bedroom. I've left to go use the toilet or take a bath with Epsom salts. I see my children and wife in passing or through Facetime. In my room I binge watch television shows, currently Game of Thrones and Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, play on my iPhone, and look at Instagram and news sites relentlessly. So much so that my thumbs are chaffed.
I was diagnosed and tested with the COVID-19 and have not had the experience that the media has portrayed. I am healthy, albeit overweight, but healthy nonetheless. Furthermore, I have no underlying health conditions; yet, this illness has me quarantined away from my family and work. There has only been twice where I didn't “feel good”, rather just tired and lethargic, along with two separate bouts of bad cough and diarrhea.
The worst part about this illness is that it's never been anything where I thought I was going to die. The media has hyped this so much that I am underwhelmed about how easy this is. Ironic, huh? I'm doing well, I danced with Jax tonight, hurt arm and all, but like I said, “Stir crazy!”
Oh, and all of this, through all of this, I didn't have much to do, other than television and sleep! That is the worst part about this illness, for me, it made me sleepy. I didn't lose taste, my sense of smell is bad anyway - didn't notice anything get worse. Well, the aforementioned diarrhea was shitty. Haha! See what I did there?
Well anyway, it's time to wrap it up. Danni just got to her new castle and Tyrion and her walking through!
Until next time:
Peace
