Will It Stick?

In This Article:

"What in the world," I find myself thinking but also saying out loud half of the time as I'm in public. Is this normal or is it not? At the beginning of 2020, if I walked into a building and saw someone masked, I would think there was a robbery taking place. Now, it's an insane trip to the store if I see someone inside without a mask. It's not only the masks, but there are also so many things I question.

How will Zoom play a role when corona slows down?

Classes heavily rely on Zoom to keep in communication with their classes. In fact, over half of my courses switched to blended seated and zoom. This has me left wondering if in the future zoom will remain a big part of education.

We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
