- RDP FRIDAY: TIRED
The fantasy stories spun during the Covid Lockdown in Washington State were brain melters.
I am so tired of them ALL. More then any of the other perks that will come with Washington state opening back up at the end of June, the best will be that I won’t have to eat word salad stories like these anymore:
When we were in the midst of lockdown you told us your story about driving to Eastern WA and hanging out with people not from your household…but as you explained it, they are ‘family’ and it was okay because seeing family was a ‘safe’ activity.
You didn’t get the part about how that only works if you actually live under the same roof.
Later that Summer you posted pictures of you visiting family in Idaho and again you stressed it was a safe activity because everyone you saw were family so you were sure it was ‘safe’ when you all gathered around the table and helped the birthday guy blow out candles on a tray of cupcakes
and then you and your “family” stood six feet apart outside and ate them-
and to top this all off you later last winter you went to party with your “Pod” and lo and behold some of the guests came down with Covid-19
all I can say is
I’m surprised more people that you know aren’t dead.
The End.
I wrote on this prompt today as well. There is some thing about the word “tired” that is resonating with me.
The Covid Years have worn me out and made me tired.
