I’d somehow managed to avoid having Covid until last week.

Now on day 12, still testing positive and really very tired of the whole thing. It has not been severe, but it’s exhausting and tedious and generally inconvenient. I have tons of stuff to do, which is getting done very slowly or not at all. Unclear how much of my lack of focus is a direct symptom of the illness and how much is a second order psychological effect of being stuck at home with this fucking virus, but either way it’s bogging me down. Work aside, you’d think this would be an opportunity to catch up on reading and watching, but even frivolous shows feel like too much commitment, too much of an exercise in patience.

I have replayed a decent chunk of Tears of the Kingdom, though.
