Zoom meetings are hard. Technology is hard. The world wide web is hard. Sitting at home all day is hard. Looking at yourself in the mirror and documenting how much weight you have gained is hard. Washing your hands more than once a day is hard. Wearing a mask when it’s not October is hard. Using your bath mat as substitute toilet tissue is hard. Eating 5-6 full meals a day even when you’re not hungry is hard. Shaving your larger than normal face is hard. Missing family and friends is hard. Wiping down all mail and packages with a random wet rag is hard. Eating 5 course dinners with elaborate ingredients is hard. Consuming exotic breads is hard. Sitting for long stretches of time while searching various online streaming services is hard. Bathing is hard. Answering questions from those inhabiting the same household is hard. Drinking every night is hard. But we do these things not for ourselves, we do these things as a collective, as one, for the greater good. Stay healthy, stay happy. Go Bears.
