Week 2442

Christmas happened, but without family or friends or travel it just doesn’t feel so festive. I’m glad we got a proper tree, at least.

I’m writing this late on Sunday because I made a second visit to the speakeasy, this time with a friend.

It’s a great memory but I won’t be doing that again even if I don’t end up with the virus I deserve.
