Hello everyone,

We were discussing with a friend the other day and how Covid has one good thing when it was there: the reduced amount of socialization.

We are in our early 30s, so weekends get usually packed with one things on Friday evening, something on Saturday, sometimes Saturday evening too, and then you try to catch up with family on Sunday.

In the end, even if it feels very good to see people, sometimes it can be quite tiring too.

My current weekend was

  • a chill evening on Friday with a friend
  • nothing planned on Saturday until a social gathering at 6pm
  • nothing on Sunday

And I feel fucking great.

So that’s it, just some random thoughts, what is your stance on the matter? Do you manage to keep time for yourself, or are you running from one event to another?

    It depends massively on what my week and previous/forthcoming weekends are like.

    If I’ve got a lot on otherwise, I want nothing more than to sit alone watching something or playing single player games, ordering in some junk food, not leaving the house and basically ignoring my phone.

    If I’ve had a relatively boring week, I may want to socialise as much as all day both days, maybe even at the expense of much sleep.

    Or somewhere between the two extremes
