I've been a little depressed lately. Some of it might be due to the entire pandemic and bleakness it's bringing, but I've also been thinking about my best friend from childhood. I haven't seen him in nine years come this weekend. I haven't talked to him in over seven as of last month.

There's a qoute that says "At some point in your childhood, you and your friends went outside to play together for the last time, and nobody knew it." It's true.

What a prince!

i've really been wanting to get out of the house and go to a park, maybe busch gardens, something to get this cabin fever away. sucks this virus has forced so many inside with so many stores having to close early. i agree, it's depressing.

I know that feeling. Two of my closest childhood friends (brothers) disappeared from my life not long after high school. One passed away in '07. The other now lives far away.

I do have my closest friend whom I've been friends with since 2nd grade. We still hang out when we both are free. But that's a true rarity in life for most.

I've fallen out of touch with friends from years gone by with only a few who still remain. I do miss them, but then I remember something. Friends come and go as we need them, if they stay around, they are good for you. If they are gone, you either don't need them in your life (Toxic, negative, they aren't a good friend and let it die), You drift apart due to life or in a way their job is done in the grand scheme of things as they have helped you in some way to grow into who you are, or it was only temporary and you two just went on your own paths, nothing negetive, just time and life. 

Thats why the friends you do have now, are so important, they can be from way back in the day or ones you just met. They bring something to the table. I make mine laugh and listen to them when they just want to talk. They do the same for me. I have regrets, sure. But in the bigger picture, its those that stuck around that are tried and true.

Adam Sandler's quarantine song.

Kane vs. COVID-19.

I think I'm reaching the point where I have to stop using Safari as my go to browser. Everything has been really buggy lately.

this whole social distancing situation sucks. i feel like i've exhausted every possible way to keep my sanity and even going out in the backyard to do something productive has been starting to feel boring and repetitive at this point. i want to go to a mall, a restaurant, somewhere else besides here. it's taking a jab at my mental health and i just feel defeated.

For the moment only the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction is warning that this shelter in place response may be necessary through the end of the year!

I see no way out national economy can recover if we continue on this path beyond May 2020.
