My parents came to pick me up. Also, took a covid test when I woke up today, and it turns out the thing I caught was, in fact, Covid-19. Fuck me.

Oof. Best things to hope for are that nobody else on your trip caught it and that if you didn't have a vaccine for it recently, that it doesn't fuck you up as badly as it did me the last time I had it. Also RIP to anyone on the plane home who was sat around you I guess.
Speaking of the plane home, what did you do to fill up 9+ hours of time in the sky?

Sleep and search internet intermittenly. The flight sucked because my bottom really started hurting after a while.

Was the internet just included as part of your ticket or did you have to buy it on the flight? I can't remember if it was included on any of my international flights but I feel like if it was I would've used it.
All I remember using on those flights was the entertainment screen in the back of the seat. XD

Oh, Delta just has free wi-fi, at least for SkyMiles members (which is literally just their free log-in service). It's awesome! Didn't have to deal with the entertainment once, because I had Youtube. In fact, rebooking my flight and going with Airfrance was a DOWNGRADE, because they only give free wi-fi for messaging apps!

Yeah this is particularly why I mask the fuck up at airports cuz boy howdy that sure is where that'll happen, and did in fact happen only a few short months ago. Wait, June was 5 months ago.

Time really is the ultimate illusion. I also kinda feel like I've been reading too much bad news and it kinda feel like.......

You know tha Simpsons scene where Bart had the worst day of hsi life and Homer was like, "Worst day of your life so far"

really does kinda feel like the way that the world is going I guess overall things are moving in the right direction, but one thing for sure it never really does feel like it?

Dang now I'm remembering that I tried to make a Delta SkyMiles account to get their WiFi and it wouldn't connect to the site so I didn't get to have any WiFi...

I do my best to try and not seek that sort of stuff out too much, to the point that when Twitter was still Twitter I stopped following a lot of accounts because they started to discuss politics too much for my liking but always in a negative light to the point my timeline was just too much negative shit. I'd also say avoid reading about the news on social media sites because 1) sites will make the most click bait shit to get engagement and skew how the news sounds to get kneejerk reaction comments and 2) the comments are normally a dumpster fire because of point 1.


Ugh, I have an assignment I have to finish tonight but my Adderall has worn off so the struggle is incredibly real right now to focus on the bastarding thing.... >.<

Nothing like looking up at your TV for a moment to see the screen has just suddenly got some weird burnout glitch stuff going on for no reason. And it's our main TV that we use to watch stuff on and play games...
