Baba Ganush - an excerpt from my bedside diary chronicling life during a pandemic.
Fun fact, true story... my sex life is way better when I’m not alone.
It’s been a hot week in the Toronto area, 42°C or 108°F with zero wind or relief anywhere to be found. I almost burst into flames.
The Liquor Store isn’t happy, but luckily my speedo has a built-in
water cooler. If one more person tells me: “it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity”, I might throw one of these useless cans of vodka/soda at them. Just to be clear, if you are drinking one of these tasteless concoctions, I’m assuming you have a drinking problem. They may as well call them a can of “Why Bother”. I am currently building a positive protest sign stating “It’s ok to enjoy flavour with your booze!” I have discovered that if you drink enough tequila you can habla español como si fuera tu primer idioma. Gracias to Founders Original [1] for creating awesome cocktails - full of flavour !
I woke up today thinking, “this is a fantastic day to give the cat a bath.” In actual fact, this was NOT a fantastic day to give the cat a bath. I have renamed the cat Jesus. On a related matter ... I have perfected my skills at doing my own sutures.
I cleaned out the fridge – a good use for a bandanna or a virus mask (many petri dish experiments). I live by a set of rules: #7. If it smells bad, don’t eat it! Which applies now more than ever.
The gyms are closed and I have had to be creative with my workouts. “How about a run,” I say to myself. At 6’3” and 260 lbs. this body is not meant for running. The “runners high” appears to be a lie, and you skinny people should be ashamed of yourselves for starting such a rumour. Now, the “runners low” is a very real thing, and it’s horrible. Feel free to avoid that. Just saying.
Something else to keep in mind... ALL people are struggling right now, some with depression and/or anxiety. Many will do it in silence and will NOT ask for help. We have nothing but time on our hands right now. Take a bit of that time and reach out to a few people. That small gesture could make a HUGE difference in someone’s life. Click here for more info.
Be kind and keep safe my friends,
🍺
