Captains Log:
May 1 Year 2020, Day 8 of Covid-19 Quarantine
03:00 Captains Log: The Advil Sinus Congestion and Pain has soothed the headache. If there were indeed a building crew working overtime in my head, Advil was the building inspector who pulled their permits! Now.to.reduce.the.eye.pain.
08:00 Captains Log: Holy crap I feel better! Like honest to goodness better, on a scale of 1 – 10, 1 being yesterday my worst day, today I am a solid 5. I.believe.the.UTI.caused.the.fever!
08:30 Captains Log: I need food to take my meds. I was hoping for an English muffin with an egg, but Charito is asleep in the living room. I have decided to get some cereal, which was the noisiest selection due to the wrapping! She is now awake! I try to explain I was trying to be quiet, but she cuts me off and states “you are so noisy!” I’ll.eat.my.cereal.in.quarantine.
10:00 Captains Log: I must’ve dozed off or went through a space worm hole because I can’t remember the last hour and a half. I.had.a.brief.siesta.
11:00 Captains Log: I am outside with the pack. It’s beautiful, warm, sunny. And overall a positive vibe.
11:15 Captains Log: I spoke too soon or pissed off the Gods it’s now pouring!
11:30 Captains Log: Raccoon sighting in the daytime! The sewers must be flooding! Does.someone.need.a.hug!
12:30 Captains Log: Mess-Hall Ham, Turkey and Cheese whole wheat bread, mayo. Tummy.is.churning.
13:00 Captains Log: I have some work that needs my attention. I am attempting to not wear my glasses due to the pain in my eyes. This proves to be a mistake as I wrote an entire email in emojis! š¤£š¤Ŗšš
13:30 Captains Log: Sean and Trish come through again dropping off more Advil Sinus medicine for me. I owe them dinner and drinks! Thank you both. Bonus.the.bag.contains.krimpets.and.PB.eggs.
14:00 Captains Log: Omaha Steak delivery has arrived. This was definitely a panicky impulse buy. We have no space at all for all this meat nor the appetite to consume it. Social.Distance.BBQ.is.coming.soon.
15:00 Captains Log: Still no fever today. Groggy and my eyes hurt still. But.fever.free.
16:00 Captains Log: I had to get some more reporting sent out to the Houston Vessel. I will await the commanders call to discuss. Hopefully.he.is.enjoying.an.adult.beverage.
17:00 Captains Log: Bored! Bored.in.italic.
18:00 Captains Log: Charito is making buttered noodles. I have no appetite but the sound of that sounds simple and so digestible! They.were.cheesy.and.delicious
18:15 Captains Log; Huge shoutout to our boo bear crew member Niko for doing all the dishes and emptying the dishwasher. That.was.epic.thank.you!!!
19:00 – 21:42 Captains Log: During the last 7 days I have watched one movie a poorly dubbed Kung Fu film. Today I decided to watch a more mainstream movie and went with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. This movie was exactly 160 minutes too long in my opinion. I’m.no.critic.but.I.didn’t.like.it.
22:00 Captains Log: Feeling better, hopefully I will sleep through the night. I am happy Charito has taken to my side again and is back where she belongs in our sleeping quarters together. She’s.my.security.blanket.
22:08 Captains Log: In case you were wondering The Pack is in bed with us as well. Stop.panting.twitching.and.move.over!
24:00 Captains Log: I recall being sick in my youth, even as recent as this past December where I had a nasty upper respiratory infection, all I wanted to do was sleep. This time around, sleep is basically non-existent. I feel better, but I know one night of sleep or even one solid nap will be the game changer. I.think.I’m.hungry.
