I have spent a lot of my life anticipating one major disaster or another, and when Covid hit, I found it was a completely different kind of fear and dread than I had been expecting. Fear and dread becoming a kind of background radiation in my life, rather than constant panic.

😔When Covid hit & we had to start social distancing by staying at home, it reminded me of when my family & I were stationed in Honduras & Guatemala. We didn't get to experience much of the culture cuz the crime rate was so bad our best bet was to isolate ourselves when we weren't at work or school.

It's a lot like being in a war zone.

Though there was also plenty of panic for the first few months!

I like horror because it lets me feel the fear when I am safe.
