Nothing during and coming out of this pandemic had stayed the same. Nor can it. Nor should it, necessarily. One thing that has changed for me, besides my level of cynacism, is my writing time and writing style. Like clockwork, everyday for more than five years, I always set […]
Today is supposed to be a lucky day. However, by just stating that, I habe probably jinxed everything. Hence expect it to be an unlucky day. Unless, of course, I knock on wood while I state all this. I’m quite superstitious, you see. All day today, I’ll be […]
