Lacessit Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Play golf, swim, read books, watch TV series, eat out, read news. Cook for myself for dinner in the condo, GF does everything when I am in the village. Add new observations to my autobiography, 138,000 words thus far. Oh yes, marvel at the regulation that says I and my GF must wear masks when we are together in the car, after we spent the previous night in bed maskless. No further correspondence will be entered into. Er - what isolation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some might be upset that you all had it and recovered without problems ( like, apparently the vast majority that do catch it ). I don't remember seeing any account of covid deaths posted that did not also list the number of cases... It is deadly, but for a small percent only and there are also people who get really sick from it and have lasting side effects... seems like you are really on to nothing here.. except making a big deal of readily available information and claiming it to be otherwise... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cook with my girlfriend and try new dishes from u tube. We still go for a walk on the beach and shopping. Not much has changed for us. The only annoying thing which we missed is a swim in the pool and use of gym at the condo. have condos been ordered to close these? I'm sure they love any excuse to close them and save maintenance costs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked for that under a couple of appropriate sections, I don't seem to have mentioned anything except how useful the inputs of Sheryl, ubonjoe and Crossy are. 86 words when I highlight that area. There is a fairly large section on how I beat my alcohol and nicotine addictions with self-discipline, but you probably won't be interested in that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ventenio Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Really, you like being alone? test: watch a girl movie where her parents, dog, and siblings die..... one where they have cancer, or whatever.. trust me........you WANT other humans to know you exist and care for you. team sports, family, friends......whatever. alone in the world is about as anti-human as possible i was with a few friends today for a few hours. it wasn't nearly enough. team work.....good friends......parents.......way more valuable than finding 15 baht rottee on Soi 4 at 4 a.m. after drinking your mind to numbness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted cheese and Branston pickle sandwich with a Schweppes manao soda. The news alcohol has been a Class 1 carcinogen since 1989 is no doubt unwelcome news, responsible for cancers of the mouth, esophagus, stomach and liver. Perhaps you are hoping to be a statistical outlier. I'm hoping to win Tattslotto. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
