I was feeling sooo optimistic just a few weeks ago. Cases were shrinking, athletes were on their way to the Olympics, the eviction moratorium was extended, libraries were opening their doors to patrons. This week, feeling more glass half empty, all I wanted to do was eat delicious vegan ice cream from this place and read books about reality tv hopefuls, has been sitcom actors, and vengeful creative writing students.
