I have had a nice new flat for beards now but not one really suitable for a cat. So, I’ll probably move when the contract is up and get a cat.

Dislocated my pinkie while skating. Popped it back in it’s socket. Have to do physical therapy to stop it locking up.

There was a tonne of redundancies at work. I never really felt at risk because it wouldn’t have made good business sense to include me.

I started going to improv sessions in English and signed up for a stand up course in Spanish. The improv is just for fun but the stand up comes with a gig at the end, also in Spanish.

Work are sending me to London this Sunday. Now I gotta find weed there somehow. What a ballache.

So awesome living where it is essentially legal.

Surely it couldn't be too difficult to find, I'd imagine

I ended up in a lodge in a village, with one pub. So, I just decided not to bother. Therefore, these next few paragraphs are written by a not high me.

It was exciting to experience autumn. There’s no autumn in Córdoba. The way the air feels, the colours, crunchy leaves. I’ve experienced none of that in 7 years.

People are inside my brain in a very uncomfortable way. I can still switch Spanish off. I can choose to listen but not hear. If what people are saying isn’t interesting, I just tune out. In English i can’t. So every retarded conversation within earshot carves itself into my consciousness. I’m getting ear raped by cockneys who seem to be always “avin a larf” or “gettin de amp”. In response I just mutter abuse at them in Spanish.

Also, stop making people pay for every single drink one by one, you backwards twats, do table service everywhere and bring the card machine to me don’t make me walk over to the till every fucking time. I don’t work in this bar, that’s your job.

The work part has been productive, I have enjoyed the change and it turns out I really missed Peparami (who now do a beef stick!) and Roast Beef Monster Munch. Unfortunately I’ve so far been unable to locate a packet of Scampi & Lemon Nik Naks.

Tomorrow I can finally go somewhere I actually want to be, I happen to be going home but I’d be equally as happy in many other places but I’m not happy here, and it couldn’t come soon enough.

That's hilarious, I can only imagine what it would be like to live away for so long and then hear the kinda shit you're no longer used to hearing.

Madrid is on partial lockdown. The only businesses open to the public are supermarkets and pharmacies. I live right by the main plaza. It is so peaceful right now. There are maybe 5 people in any street, mostly clutching tripods. Unoriginal cunts. It’s great for skating. There’s a lot of hungry looking birds, they normally feast on endless restaurant crumbs. At 10pm many people went out onto their balconies and applauded, they should all die.

The current state of emergency is proposed to continue for 2 weeks, as this is the general duration from the moment of contraction through to recovery. Hopefully, and according to experts, the government are underestimating the problem and the period will need to be extended.

I’d prefer not to get ill for a week but it is really no big deal. A lot of good things will come from this.

What are the main good things that will come from this? Are you FWBs at least keeping you company?

It's difficult to predict exactly what the good things will be.

We can say with certainty that things will be learned. Those learnings will mean future decisions related to the things learned will be made from a position of increased understanding. This means better decisions. Unless it completely decimates the human population, the ongoing benefits of those learnings and subsequent learnings built upon them will inevitably outweigh the temporary bad stuff.

My picks for huge changes are higher education and office based businesses. That is dependent on this thing running on a lot longer, which it seems like it will... although we don't have enough stats to know yet how effective the nationwide quarantine is being. Aside from that, a bunch of people are gonna spend more time being creative over the next few weeks.

And, no... No girls. No humans. No pet. Not even a plant. I saw a bird out the window one time, that's my closest encounter with another lifeform since Saturday.

That bit made me laugh my tits off

Even though we're not on lockdown here in Northern Ireland, some businesses and schools and the likes have taken it upon themselves to do so. I'm quite happy to be on lockdown if needs be, I have literally more books that I could possibly read even in a year long lockdown, plus I have the online life coaching course I'm doing. I'd be far from bored.

I am however, about to go on a first date with a cute blonde I'll be meeting for the first time. She literally just sent me a photo as I was typing this of her dolled up looking hot, letting me know she's booking a taxi soon.

Fuck it, YOLO.

Stop chasing tail and go get a dog.

Anyone who isn’t currently under lockdown, you will be soon. So, if you don’t have a dog, get a dog. A dog is your key to the outside world. You can do anything and go anywhere under the guise of taking the little shit out for one. I’m gonna try get one delivered.
