A little list of things I thought I wouldn’t miss, but do now
- Saying, “Hi” to people on the way to somewhere
- Eating inside the cafeteria
- Riding a jam-packed elevator and hoping it won’t malfunction
- Rehearsals
- Going to the gym
- Eating food samples at the supermarket
- Standing close to people (okay this one may sound a little weird – especially as someone who hates physical intimacy – BUT I do miss standing relatively close to people – like having a sense of community? – Pre-pandemic, when I stood far away from people, it was because I didn’t know them, or didn’t like them, or felt awkward, but now it’s because I feel scared. I think I’d rather feel anything but fear)
I hope that next year, I’ll look at this list and cringe to think that I actually missed some of these things. But for now, I do.
What are some things you miss?
