Weird but safe. That’s what I think about masks. Not saying I won’t wear one, I’m all for masking up to prevent the spread, flatten the curve, stop me poking chips into my mouth, whatever the reason.

Masks aren’t mandatory where I’m living at the moment but I’m opting to wear one at the supermarket and other public places where people are in close proximity because, well, because science. Mask wearing takes a bit of getting used to, not just physically but mentally. That’s what surprised me the most, the number of weird thoughts I had in the half hour I spent at the shops wearing a mask.

2. Does everyone think I have COVID because I’m wearing a mask? Maybe that’s good. Maybe people will social distance now and respect my personal space moat. Mmm. Personal space moat. 4. I don’t think the nice lady at the deli can tell that I’m smiling at her. Should I say: “I’m smiling at you right now.” Or would that be creepy? Like when someone is walking behind you at night and they try to reassure you by saying, “Relax, I’m not going to murder you.”5. Maybe my mask does need to be more fun. Perhaps I should go on one of those fun mask websites and get a mask with a wittyprinted on it.
