The things we learn in Quarantine boredom

        I've already told you guys about our grocery escapades. Stemming from this we got items to cook and eat. Cooking serves as a lot of peoples' pastimes and if it's one thing "trinis" love it is our bellies. We could have our own Food Network, with a literal melting pot of foods unique to our cosmopolitan society. We will delve into our cooking achievements in another post, because I'd like to report more than just being able to hard boil eggs. But as the famous Benjamin Franklin once said, "Beware the hobby that eats."
        As my mother-in-law likes to tell her, my wife has "hot-foot." No, this does not mean burning feet as in a literal interpretation; trust me, we've checked. It is a colloquial term meaning someone who likes to go out a lot. Detained at home however, we quickly learn personal things about each other that may not have diffused as rapidly under normal circumstances. For example, my wife likes when I speak to her in silly words and gibberish sometimes. Is that weird? It makes her laugh. I'm hoping that she just thinks i'm cute and it has nothing to do with her being a paediatrician and working with babies all the time. Drop a comment if you think that's strange or otherwise. No seriously, comment cause I really wanna know.
         We've evidently learnt that we love being weird with each other, because being normal is just boring. In the words of one of my favourite authors Paulo Coelho, "A relationship where you can be weird together is your best choice." Some activities we enjoy are quite normal such as Netflix and Chill, and walking the doggies together. We relish reading the newspapers together and would frequently message to ask the other to pickup one on the way home. On the other hand, we have varying tastes in television  entertainment and occasionally there would be a third world war to determine who gets the TV remote (no kidding.)

Sometimes
one
just
desires
 some
 space
 to oneself,
 if only to yawn.
