All this staying home has made me slowly clean the house.
|
Well, shopping today was certainly an...adventure. We did manage to get pasta and toilet roll - although I had to go further afield for them into smaller shops - but crisps? Nope. No soluble painkillers either, so if I catch anything I won't have any relief =/
I HATE panic buying. People need to calm the fuck down and stop being so bloody selfish. |
The UK has finally ordered the closure of bars, restraunts and the like, though it was a bit strange of them to announce on Friday that they'd be closed from Saturday onwards. Gave people the chance to flock to the pubs on Friday night for cut-price drinks. Takeaways are still open though, can imagine they'll be busier than ever tonight.

this sucks.
like... as much of an introvert as i am, i still need to go outside every once in a while. and while i get that i'm not disallowed to do that per se... it's just... boring. i can't go to the park anymore, because i don't want to risk exposing myself and becoming a risk. i can't really go out and escape the house like i want to sometimes and it really bothers me. i get that this is a minor, selfish complaint in the grand scheme of things, and the virus pandemic has affected me in far worse ways that i don't want to get into, but still. i can only hope that this passes sooner rather than later. i get safety is top priority but a lot of people's lives (including my own) are affected by this and being stuck without a path forward isn't fun. |
I am back and I am in quarantine. We have a duty to everyone right now to practise social distancing. I just rushed home from a country which (at the time I left) had no cases, but I am quarantining myself in my room for two weeks because going through international airports is more than enough for it to have been passed onto me. My mum is a nurse, therefore a key worker and I am not about to risk letting her get it. Didn't even hug her after the most stressful journey home of my life rushing to get out of Angola hours before the country imposed an international travel ban.
It's a really crap situation and I am completely sympathetic towards everyone's lives who have massively been changed for the time being (I've just potentially lost thousands of £££) but we just can't afford to not live this way for now. |
Guys.....i'm sorry. It's just someone in rl said they were going to escort me to the hospital, and i'm really sorry. I had my bags packed the whole weekend, but she who shall not be named never came. I didn't shower the whole weekend, so I took a shower Sunday night and unpacked once I realized the whole situation has been exaggerated. I decided to come back to PC because I can't live without my Pokemon news. I'm sorry for worrying everyone. If you don't want me here anymore, I understand. I am a bit of a bother to the average person.
I am NOT asking for your pity here. I am asking for your HONESTY! Please, real friends are honest with each other. |
huh. what's that all about o.o
|
This is why we escape to the online world away from the craziness we call life even if it's just for a little bit. We gotta take care of each other and make each other laugh.
|
Outside of working at home and not being able to go into stores because they're closed nothing really has changed for me. I suppose when you're living that lifestyle for years it doesn't affect you as much?
If you're looking for something to do and you're not willing to spend the time inside your head then this would be the perfect opportunity to pick up a hobby you may have neglegted. When you're not able to act in the social sphere then go into the individual sphere, improve something there and when you're allowed to socialize again you have something to show, so to speak. Turn the problem into an opportunity! |
So i'm guessing you guys are accepting me back?
So anyway, I hear rumors on the internet of a March 26th Nintendo Direct. I just pray for ANY Pokemon news if this were the case. What do you think? |
I don't see why we wouldn't accept you back :P
im slowly going coo coo at this point |
Everyone is always welcomed back. We know this is trying times right now and have to be there for each other. :D
|
You guys are the best. I'm going coo-coo as well. And you're right Caite, we should help each other in these hard difficult times.
|
I'm def past coo coo already
|
does anyone else remember outside? i remember outside
|
I remember outside from when I was a child, about 20 years ago. But then I got this weird thing called a Gameboy and outside ceased to exist.
|
I was just camping for 18 weeks straight so this whole don't leave the house thing is quite the change for me. Still, running water, clean clothes and good internet are quite nice to have.
|
i don't really stay outside for long, i don't think. only really leave for essential things and work and that's it lol
|
I was sitting out on the sun porch with the windows open yesterday and then left my bedroom window open all night and it felt great. Touch bit chilly but still felt great. I know we'll be getting rain for the next few days.
|
So what about that Nintendo Direct Mini huh folks? The info at the end about the Pokemon DLC seemed a bit underwhelming in my opinion, but hey, I paid for it so oh well. Something to look forward too.
Xenoblades Chronicles Definitive Edition and Bravely Default 2, I heard good things about their original games which I never played. I must admit BD2 has an amazing art style in my opinion. |
game freak being conservative with what they're revealing as far as swsh news is concerned is not surprising in the slightest. given that was what their aim was pre-swsh release, it's safe to say these kinds of trailers are what we're going to get from here on out.
definitely getting xenoblade chronicles and bravely default 2, though! |
I had the strangest nightmare last night that bolted me out of my bed at 6 in the morning. It was so weird. I was in a doctors office, and this boy from school was eating a steak sandwich with mayo and ketchup. He offered me a piece, then he said he broke up with his gf so we went in his....car and drove...somewhere? We kissed and agreed to be bf ad gf. Then we were in gym class and this OTHER boy was singing to me in the sweetest voice, and we kissed and agreed to be bf and gf. Then the gym teacher offered us mayo and ketchup packets, and the other guy I was previously sharing the steak sandwich with broke down and cried. Then we were practicing for the school play and somehow I got a lead as Donna Sheridan in Mama Mia, and we were practicing the part of the play where Donna meets the potential fathers for the first time and two of the fathers were the two guys I made out with and we messed up the scene. Then I was pacing around my school hallways questioning a lot of things about life, TONS of things about life, and then I woke up scared out of my mind.
Okay, i'm a girl in rl, but i've been questioning my sexuality lately so it was a very awkward (and to me scary) nightmare. I don't want to go back to school anymore afraid to see those two guys. I mean they're both taken in rl, but I know them both well, so until I recover from mental stuff, I just want to stay out of school. Speaking of Mama Mia, the school play (which is a big deal in my school) was SUPPOSED to be this weekend, but it was POSTPONED until further notice, so oh well. And NO I was NEVER in the play to begin with NOR do I want to. I don't even want to be in the back stage crew (which I was considering) anymore cause of that nightmare. |
i have gone officially coo coo
|

|
