#oh also if i don't catch covid before the conference i'm almost certain i'll catch it there

[sophielovesbooks]

So... I haven't been sick since August. Everybody else seems to be, though. In many cases with Covid.

I'm going to an academic conference in early January. Or at least that's the plan. But of course I'll be seeing family over the holidays, going places, attending my friend's birthday party...

It feels inevitable that I'll catch Covid and miss the conference. In fact, I'd almost bet on it. And it's such a shitty feeling because I'm in this constant stage of vigilance and pessimism and ahhh. 😔😔😔 And it would be my first time actually presenting my own research at an international conference and I want to go so badly. But... we'll see, I guess.

#covid u continue to be an absolute fucking menace #i hate you so so so much #covid #covid19 #tw covid #cw covid #oh also if i don't catch covid before the conference i'm almost certain i'll catch it there #i'm so fcking anxious #i HATE this new covid world #will it ever get better #or will it just always be like this now?
