So this is me. Hi there. This is near the end of week 5 of Los Angeles’ “Sheltering-at-Home”.
I’ve decided to try to pick up blogging again. It’s a lost art but lets see if we could bring it back. When I was younger I use to love reading about friends through their writing. The 90′s and the 00′s were a less “micro-bloggy” time and I felt that was a time when we were more authentic with presenting ourselves online and less “I’m going to be an influencer for likes and comments”.
So since sheltering in place I’ve lost muscle mass, got fat, lost that fat and started getting thinner again, and now I’m just bored and eating mass quantities of cake and bread despite being medically gluten-intolerant. My hair is pretty shaggy and my facial hair is looking pretty gnarly -- and not in a good way. I’ll occasionally attack my boyfriend by scratching his face up with my stubbles. Gotta entertain yourself somehow right?
To keeping me entertained I’ve been trying to make candles for building up a side hustle. I’ve settled on creating a line of masculine scents such as Cuban Cigar, Bourbon, Blue Spruce, Cedar and Black Pepper, and a cologne smelling one that I’m calling “Derrick” in honor of my friend it smells like. I’ve also been harboring my inner daddy, or inner plant daddy. More pics to come I guess.
How is everyone dealing with quarantining?
