I made what I call ‘white girl chicken stir fried rice’ for dinner tonight. Only Dustin and I partook; Mac got himself some Doordashed Arby’s for dinner. My feelings were a little bit hurt, but it wasn’t my money to spend, and it means, I suppose, Dustin has leftovers for lunch tomorrow?

Mac and I went out to dinner this evening. It was nice to get out of the house just the two of us. But there’s so much going on right now that I am just a ball of anxiety.
I know things will get better. I refuse to believe otherwise.
Take your meds, folks.
