30 Day Blogging Challenge PROMPT May 23rd What is something you like to do that other people might think is “weird?” As I watch weird ass shows like Married At First Sight - Couple's Cam -- the married couple's living in quarantine I find it odd that people aren't enjoying being stuck in with time to work on hobbies. Being someone who loves to write, I am loving this time in some ways. I can take chunks of time out of my usual working day to write instead of going off or doing the commute thing to work. Sure it means I might be creating something for my students at 10 pm instead of during the school day... but it is my time and I can use it how I want. This does not mean I write all day, but I find I can write in the mornings when I'm my most creative before the 'work day' starts at 9 am. Take, for instance now. It is currently 4:30 in the morning and I am writing with a writing group that usually meets in Paris, France. They are meeting at 10 am, but it is 6 hours earlier here. Their meetings have to be virtual, so for this period of time, I can 'meetup' with them. Once life goes into the new normal and they can return to their usual cafe, I won't be able to join them anymore, but I am loving that I can right now. It does mean getting up at 3:45 am on Saturday and 4:45 am on Sunday, but because I don't have to get up and travel to work Monday to Friday I am okay with getting up this early. I also find that at 7 am, when the group is done, I can either join another group writing in London, England for an hour or go back to bed until noon. The time is open and I don't live with anyone who needs me up and functional at that time. I am lucky that way. This is not something I could sustain for long periods of time, but for now I am loving it. |
