Captains Log:
May 3 Year 2020, Day 10 of Covid-19 Quarantine
04:59 Captains Log: I’m awake and achy. I need more sleep. I will reload on the Alka Seltzer, some Tylenol and try and catch a few more hours of recovery sleep. Stop.opening.you.dumb.eyes!
09:30 Captains Log: Charito is awake. I am going to get up also to eat something to take some meds. Food.sounds.horrible.
10:00 Captains Log: I made an English muffin with a couple eggs and cheese. I dry heave swallowing half and offer Charito the rest. Stay.in.my.belly!
10:30 Captains Log: I’m gonna lie down. As I proceed to review social media Jameson has begun staring at me and huffing in an attempt to gain my attention. I attempt to ignore him but he is persistent. I bow my head in a gesture of compromise and he proceeds to exfoliate my bald head. Peace.is.achieved.
12:00 Captains Log: Mess–Hall Ham, Turkey and cheese on white. Food.makes.me.wanna.spew!
14:00 Captains Log: Watching some videos, bored, tired, achy, bored, bored, bored! Bored.in.italic.again.
15:30 Captains Log: I am sitting outside. It’s very warm and really nice. I’m now irritable and hot. I’m going inside to put myself in a TimeOut.
15:45 Captains Log: Since March 16th up to a little over a week ago I was working 10 – 12 hours per day, going at 3000mph. Up at 4:45am running 3.5 miles, on the road by 6:30am, at work by 7am. Working my face off in full PPE, working in unsafe conditions exposed to other people’s germs. Coming home, stripping at the door, if it was a lifting day, right to the dungeon, but everyday I would wash my clothes, shower, THEN greet my family, repeat. I did everything right. Only for it to be halted on a dime. I am responding to a work email and realizing I will not be there for another week or longer. During the most trying time in the history of hospitality I was all in and now I have been reduced to watching from the sidelines. Someone.is.angry.and.feeling.sorry.for.himself.I’ll.stay.in.timeout.
16:30 – 18:30 Captains Log: I decide to watch a movie. It’s a movie about a bad Superman as a child. I love the concept, movie was mediocre, concept awesome. Thank.goodness.superman.is.on.our.side.Or.is.he?
19:00 Captains Log: Mess Hall – Chicken noodle soup. Mmm.mmm.soup.is.good.food.
20:00 Back lying down. I’m having a little trouble with deep breaths when I’m standing up. I feel like I have a swimmers cough. Don’t.wanna.panic.its.easier.to.breath.lying.down.
20:30 Captains Log: I am about to go get some sleepy time meds and some Tylenol. Don’t.want.to.wake.up.tonight.
21:00 Captains Log: I am logging off for the evening. I am super angry and very hostile. It is now going on week two of being home and I am achy and am having a hard time with deep breaths. Also, The Courtyard Vessel is engaging Phase 1 of our multi phase plan to resume regular operations tomorrow and while I have orchestrated the plan, I will not be there to assist in the execution. Ain’t.that.a.kick.in.the.melons.
22:00 Captains Log: Irritability explained. I am running a100.2 fever again. This shit sucks!! SUCKS!!!!!
