I check my pockets as I lock the door behind me.
“I got my keys. My wallet. My phone. My bags. Is that everything?”
I stop. I look up with horror.
#building manager literally said ''This is the first time I've seen you without a mask before! :D'' the other day as I was leaving#and I was like ''FRICK. I KNEW I FORGOT SOMETHING''#I was literally just going to my Tio's house to help him wrap presents so I guess I didnt NEED one#but I still wear masks when I'm out and about anyways#I'll never forget my last week working as a teaching assistant when one of my younger coworkers came up to me#and said ''Thank you for always wearing a mask. Thank you for helping me not feel crazy'' and almost burst into tears#I think about that a lot :(#I hope she's doing ok#She had elderly parents and an immunocompromised roommate#but she said she'd still wear a mask even if that wasn't the case because there are a lot of other people who have bad immune systems#and she didn't want to accidentally get them sick either#:((((#She was so sweet. I wish I could've given her a big hug but you know#the sentiment is there regardless#anyways sorry to be gloomy in the tags of a funny post this just reminded me of that story#covid#I talk in the tags
