The COVID Blues

What’s on my mind? The COVID Blues.


First came the spending: “Another package from Wayfair? What now, Nicole?” “Stuff …” “What stuff?” “Stuff-stuff!”

 

And the snacking: “What are you eating, Nicole?” “Muffink!” (Munch, munch, munch)


And the boredom: “Another computer game? You’ve been on that thing for two hours!” “Three … So what?” 


And the sloth: “Let’s play Scrabble, Nicole!” “I’m tired! Leave me alone!” 


And the crabbiness: C’mon, Nicole … We need to get out for a walk!” “I don’ wanna walk! I don’ wanna!”  


This virus can’t end soon enough. Cross my heart and hope not to die.
