We're having weird weather for the 3rd day in a row: it's rainy, windy, foggy, and sometimes it's snowing! But right now the sun is up, while it was raining heavily a couple hrs ago, with almost hurricane wind. I soaked to bones yesterday evening (on Tuesday - the same). I didn't get cold though. I'm trying to do my best not to catch cold, as i can't afford having COPD exacerbation now (i barely got rid of the last one). I started wearing a mask and gloves outside (but only to pretend that i'm wearing them, as the ones that i have are ineffective, and i can't wear latex gloves outside, and our better masks are for emergency cases). I can take off the mask when nobody's watching. I was lucky to buy a big package of simple masks and a big pack of good quality latex gloves during my last visit to the pharmacy shop, so everybody is using them now.
Mom went to Crossroads this morning. Her main goal was to take some cash from an ATM, but... the ATMs were empty! People are panicking, taking cash from ATMs and bank accounts and hiding them "under the mattress". So, mom went to the grocer. All people were in masks, but they were literally sitting on each other's head. Right now Elijah is here, and mom is telling him scarytales about impudent customers that she saw yesterday and this morning. People are so dumb and nasty...
Speaking of nasty people... That girl that suddenly resurfaced (Xenia) is pi$$ing me off badly (did i expect something different?) She's ignorant and arrogant at the same time. Plus she's a sociopath.
I spent a lot of time with my shitty boss, so i can see sociopathic behaviour from afar. Plus, i noticed that she can make me feel like an idiot (and bad in general) only in a few lines written (in a messenger). I don't want to talk to her anymore, especially after her yesterday's (and today's) escapade. She tried to prove to me that covid threat is not real, that "it's an ordinary flu", that "the fear is exagerrated", etc. I was infuriated and confused (she has 2 kids, and she has to feel somewhat responsible for them,- but no!) I only told her that some people end up with no symptoms, and some - end up in coffin. But she didn't stop and sent me a video with an American "professor" who was "explaining" another conspirology theory. I listened to the first 2 minutes, but then my "ears got rolled into a tube", and i switched it off, because i hadn't heard this kind of bullsh#t in my whole life. He was asking a rhetorical question: "Why, while millions of Americans, and dozens of millions of people around the world are dying from diabetes, heart disease, *enter disease*,- why the "world government" doesn't establish quarantine measures??"
The fact that he messed up an infectious disease with other, non-infectious diseases, doesn't bother him at all,- he's ready to fit everything in his conspirology theory, and the others swallow his words willingly and repeat this bullsh#t like parrots. ...I didn't know what to say to Xenia in respond, and i don't think that i will. I imagine that if she continues her destructive behaviour, i'll merely block her forever. Everything that she says to me is full of hidden (and not so very) hints about her superiority over me (she's always had this superiority complex), while she's merely ignorant when it comes to basic things.
Sorry for the vent, but i need to make up my mind and admit that this communication is destructive for me, and i need to get rid of it, even if it's not polite. The fact that "sending her far away" wouldn't be polite (and she knows that), makes her feel total permissiveness. But "kher yei v nos",- she won't be sucking my blood (this kind of things won't work with Unghshu, not anymore).
The saddest thing about it is that she's vegan ... the worst kind of "preachy vegan" category you can ever imagine. *permanent facepalm*.
I'm hoping to have a walk in a couple hrs,- i hope that this time, i won't be "as wet as a chicken".

It's already good that drivers don't hit pedestrians.
