How do you express your gratitude?
I verbally say it, make a meal or hugs. Nothing massive or epic. Not every form of gratitude needs to be a grandiose gesture.
Did you guys think I was going to give you a thesis?

Adapting to changes by COVID-19?
How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?
Wal-Mart is no longer 24/7. Honestly, the biggest change has been that public transit did not return to pre-Pandemic levels. Efficiency has decreased significantly. Before, my usual buses ran at every 15-20 minutes weekday and weekends every 30-45 minutes. Now at least one bus I need is every 30 mins while another is hourly.
Beyond that, it’s felt like business as usual…but with more homeless folk in Tampa. More homeless means more frustrated and mentally-disturbed people. This situation then leads to a lot of beggars and, sadly, more drug addicts.

Morning Rituals? 1st hour of the day?
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?
My brothers and sisters in Erdtree, what the fuck is that?! When the clock strikes midnight, I’m usually at work. There is no “1st hour of the day” for me.
Everyone’s 5am is my 2pm. I’m taking a piss, washing my hands, brushing my teeth, making sure my cat is fed and then I walk out the door to meet my daughter at the school bus stop. I ask her how her day was and as usual, she’s so zapped from school that she asks for alone time so she can chill in her mom’s bed in the living room and asks me to mellow out.
Eventually, I chug 6oz of coffee brewed via espresso maker with 1Tbsp of raw cane sugar as my cat decides to sit next to me at the dinner table as I contemplate what I will do next.
I like to believe I usually treat my non-work days as an open world rpg game. I could work out or game. I could play guitar or read a book. I could watch/listen to video essays while I draw. The actual definitive points that exist are showering, waking, feeding cat and child, showering and sleeping. What happens in between are never clearly defined.
Being a creature of the night also has drawbacks. I’m awake while everyone is concluding. I sleep while the world awakens.
