Do I have the virus? Maybe.

This is now the 4th day since I was in close contact with someone who has the virus (sitting next to in a car). I read that the 4th and 5th days after the initial contact are the most likely days to experience the first symptoms. I await in trepidation!

So, 9 months of avoiding people and the very first person I'm forced to interact with at close quarters gets ill the very next day and transpires to have the virus. I might as well have enjoyed myself and attended covid 19 parties with wild abandon!

They appear to have zero sense of humour, or at least their sense of humour is vastly different from my own. They appear to have zero understanding of how I tick. They sap light-hearted moods.

Jus' watched "They Live". Hmm . . makes me wonder!

Edited to add:  And yes, I am well aware all you aliens out there will take me seriously when I say "makes me wonder".
