  1. Doing a summer clean up of my profile. Disconnecting a bit.  

    I'm sorry for being a bad friend =-= I hope everyone is safe and keeping in good spirits.

      Hard to come up with things to say, hard to agree with what you are saying, but, I think hardest to keep up with your post once you've added it. 

      I feel like I just am lurking the forums and reading when I have the spare time, with no energy to jump in. I'm happy that it is active enough at least. Checking reviews definitely a plus.

  2. Just finished the 1st paragraph of my book & my stomach is already in knots. My goodness, I wonder if this ever happens to Stephen King...

      Super exciting. I wish you luck with your book :D 

      I hope to find it on shelves one day ^^

  3. Should be able to finish the last 3 episodes of Another by tomorrow afternoon. Then I'll either start Elfen Lied or Fairy Tail this weekend.

  4. If barbershops remain closed much longer I’ll be able to cosplay as Daru (as long as I leave my hat on :P )

      There are so many memes about how razers and hair trimmers are the new toilet paper. 

      I've had a few friends start cutting their partners hair haha.

      Good luck to you ^^

  6. Just found out one of my staff's mom was tested positive for covid. Have to close the store, get a professional cleaning service and self isolate for 10 days. 

    She was like, I'm not sure what to do to help you guys. Which was incredibly sweet of her. Told her to go home rest and to give our best to her mom. I would feel more for her mom then the business if she never recovered.

      Because we have a lot of minors, I asked them to get their parents permission on continuing to work if they want to. 

      I really want transparency in this matter. :/

      Pft. I just did progress checks on everyone and checked in on their thoughts with covid two days ago. Had to do it with a coworker because they all say I'm to nice when grading and giving feedback. I have a lot of high schoolers who work for me. I want them to leave this job feeling confident and have a strong sense of self worth. So, yes...they do mean a lot to me :)

      But yes, I agree. Its not worth it getting upset at someone for something like this. I could get sick just grabbing groceries by making a mistake. And the staff let us know asap so its good.

      Hahaha yesssss! I love it :D

      I've been very strict on wearing a mask, teaching people how to wear masks properly, hand washing...everyone has been good so I don't think anyone here will get sick from said staff. But, obviously I can't be 100%

      Biggest thing is to make sure our staff realizes it is not their fault. Because, we don't want people to feel guilty for something that isn't 100% in their control. 

      Thanks for the love though @RuthisianCodex

      We are considered low risk because it was family. Here's hoping all will turn out well :)

  13. So I hope that everyone out there is doing okay or the best they can be. I'm out of work right now sucks but what can I do about that but just try to stay positive. I know many might be feeling the same. Recently found my self a bit depressed I think mostly from being stuck inside since most places in the United States shut down. So can't go out to eat or movies or anything like that. There is only so much you can do inside your house before you start going stir crazy.  I decided that if i got to move around like exercise I might feel better and sure enough. So I plugged in my WII and put in some Zumba and after a  few dances and some sweat i feel much better.  So if you find yourself feeling down for what ever reason just doing a little cardio it might help.

      Hopefully you will be alright until things get back to normal. A few close friends and FAM are in the same situation as you (temp lay off).

      I would go crazy if I just stayed in. My friend started making YouTube videos about how to stay sane during covid. Its comedic and a good thing to help him deal with life right now. Hopefully you'll find other things that happily preoccupy your time :)

  14. I'm thinking Sword Art Online might be worth a go after I finish Shield Hero. 

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      Right? Its really pretty. I definitely liked SAO first season the most. 

      Gungale is alright too. I didn't like Alfheim though. 

      The art is definitely stunning and the story line is intriguing. Costume and character design was well done too. 

      So many different styles of characters and weapons <3

      I really liked SAO - it made me miss gaming and really wish we had that type of VR in reality. ALAS, anime....hahaha

  16. Tomorrow morning's smoothie prep is done. Trying a new blend: sweet potato, beets, parsnips, carrot, banana, arugula, mango, & pineapple sprinkled with flaxseed. Truth be told, some of these smoothies don't taste the best but I'm heck bent & determined to have the Fort Knox of immune systems against this COVID-19 crud. I'll probably have it with a few slices of avocado toast, an egg white omelet, & maybe an apple for some extra fiber. Working overtime these next few days so I need some good fuel. 

  17. I've gotta say it...watching a show as scary as Shiki during a devastating pandemic at night is probably not the best idea for someone with an active, vivid imagination. 

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      I want to see this now. Its not everyday - in my opinion, to find a good scary anime.

  18. for some reason I've been sleeping between 9 and 12 hours every day for a week or so. not sure if this is some sign that I should go into annual winter hibernation 😂 

    also, I missed the deadline for a project working on aliens. I didn't really want to apply for it anyways, but still, aliens 😂 

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      Aliens...like alien aliens? 

      Lol

      Oh man your sleep cycles gonna be a mess :(

  19. Burnt my arm today while teaching someone how to cook taro. Shelf beside me was hot and I rest my arm for a second =-= Triangle burn.

    1. Nyxnine

      I aim to teach (?)

      Yeah haha Taro is a vegetable similar to a potato. But a bit sweeter. And it turns a light purple when you boil it. That's cute though, I'll have to share that with my friend, taro/tarot. She'll think its funny.

      @Illusion of Terra LOL tarot cards. Trying to predict the future of this virus and it backfired. 

      @RuthisianCodex Nah, I'm alright my arm looks a bit swollen and blistered. Its going to be annoying. But it doesn't hurt as much now :)

      Im a bit of a klutz.

  21. Went for a drive today just to get out & clear my head. My city is beginning to look like a ghost town with businesses closing down left & right & very few people out & about. This is just becoming very surreal & extremely worrying. Hope everyone on this forum is doing well. 

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      Yes it would suck. But, at some point we can't control everything. Just keep doing you :)

  23. Got a new frozen fruit blend for this weekend's smoothies & at 1st I didn't know what to think of how good peaches, pineapple, red seedless grapes, & kiwi would taste together. Now that I've tried it however, I must say that it's pretty good. Not one of my favorites but it'll work. 

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      That all sounds yummy. You should add basil seeds (soaked) :) it give Nice's texture to drinks.

  24. More and more businesses in my area have either started adjusting their hours, reducing staff, or just flat out closing their doors for good. The long term financial damage that COVID-19 is doing is scary enough to make our worst night terrors want to sleep with the lights on...

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      Its been really bothering us in Canada too. The place I am managing....we are debating closing fully. Right now we cut our hours and have our staff working as smaller groups. The clinic I was working at before, they closed all their stores except one clinic where they are taking emergencies only. I want our place to close. I'm not going to lie, it makes me nervous I am going to get others sick in my family from one mistake seeing others. This whole situation sucks its just confusing as to what to do. 

  25. yay, my country is probably going into a total lock-down by the end of the week. Though, rationally many more countries, which have infected people by now will eventually reach a similar situation.

    Also, started to have a sore throat...

    1. Nyxnine

      Nyxnine

      Its true, everyone make sure to disinfect your monitors. I'm starting to feel better though! Mine was a sinus infection. I lucked (?) out and got antibiotics. @Illusion of Terrafluids, sleep, no stress. Need to be passing good advice around hahah
