Those devils have been my angels. Without them I would never have disappeared into language, literature, the mind, laughter and all the mad intensities that made and unmade me.”[/pb_blockquote]
We love being home, but too much of anything, no matter how good, starts to grate on you after a bit.
During the months in quarantine in a beach town, much of it wasn’t drastically different. Living in a fairly rural area to begin with, a lot of people were still driving around, going here and there, we just didn’t have the tourism traffic we would have expected to see even in Spring. The stores are all closed of course, and even the restaurants that would have normally been open were closed.
We took the opportunity a few times to just get out of the house and drive around, maybe get little takeout.
