- Okay LaMa.
- Hey Rob. I like Dr Fauci, he is a big fan of the masks, so maybe I should start listening to him.
The tracker app is an app you install on your phone that lets you know if anyone you have been in contact with has developed the virus. I guess it's a good idea but I don't like the idea of being tracked (anymore than I already am), so I'm not going to get it.
- Thanks Petal, I know you're right, and my life isn't that bad, of course not. I guess it is just that stubborn streak that doesn't want to do what everyone is telling me to do. I don't know why I have that feeling in general, but it's there! I understand the very good reasons why we should wear one. I don't know what to say really.
Anyway, let's move on to other topics. Food the last few days has been okay. Went for a walk with my friend on Wednesday for an hour, and played tennis yesterday with Dad. I had some nice shots. My hand/eye coordination has really developed. I was an extremely awkward kid/teenager/young adult, but it finally seems to be improving. I must google that actually, it's really strange just how bad it was. When we played tennis a good few years ago, my dad would throw the ball to me at one point because I was playing so poorly, and it was a real struggle to catch it. Thankfully, I don't have that problem as much anymore.
They are starting up a tennis league soon, which is really exciting, as I love competitive matches. I know I will probably be slaughtered in most of them, but I love the idea of having a game with stakes involved. I have in my head as a medium term goal to try to win a competition at some stage. I really think I can do it.
Not doing anything for the evening, tennis tomorrow at 11 and going to the cinema tomorrow night. Have to try to keep them open with my custom! I fear the age of cinema is coming to a swift end. There were 14 at the film I went to see the first week, only 4 last weekend. I guess it's hard when it's mostly older movies that are in that people can stream online anyway. The Wizard of Oz (first released in 1939) is in the cinema this weekend, lol.
I did a good bit of work for the drama group this week. We're trying to get our regular meetups back up and running in September, so I sent an email to the arts council asking what are the guidelines around this. I also contacted a local theatre to ask about doing a potential show in February. No word back yet, but good to keep things in motion anyway. There's a lot of people that really love our little group, it's nice to be a part of something positive that I also get a kick out of. I'm probably closer with the people in the group than some of my own friends at this point. I guess that's life.
Not much else to report really. Oh yeah, my dad and I were meant to go to a concert in November, got the cancellation email today. What a disaster. This is the second gig that has been cancelled on us this year. We were going to see this amazing classical pianist Alexis Ffrench, this piece is really beautiful, I'll leave you with it:
