Today, Becky has tasked me with entertaining the masses. I’ve instead opted to tell you about what happened today. In no particular order (especially not chronologically) I have:
1. Made cornbread. Very popular amongst the rest of the family. Olaf said it was perfect, and I couldn’t have agreed more.
2. Cleaned my room. This really only meant removing the carpet of flattened clothing and jamming them into the meager drawers of my dresser. I was quickly distracted by the (unfortunately cancelled, you guess why) Eurovision Song Contest 2020
3. Listened to the contestants for the (unfortunately cancelled, you guess why) Eurovision Song Contest 2020. For the unenlightened few, the EVSC is an international, The Voice-style song competition. Each European country—plus Australia because??—votes for an artist and song to represent them in the international festival. Through a series of judged and tele-voting rounds, songs are slowly eliminated until there is a winner. Last year, the Netherlands won (yay the Dutch!) so the competition would have been held in Rotterdam if not for a certain Mrs. C. Virus. Regardless, the songs are always quirky and fun and even genuinely jammable on occasion. (A good example would be 2018’s winner, Netta and her song “Toy.” Quite strange, but quite fun!)
4. Played four square. I was certainly not the best, but I still had a good time laughing at my own lack of skills in any sport involving a ball.
5. Been told multiple times by Becky “How mature I am,” and “How I’ve been being very nice lately,” and “How I’m just a joy to have around.” No extra comment needed.
TL;DR, Finn did some things and people gave him a rather large ego boost in more ways than one.
And with that, arrivederci! See you next week when Becky makes me do this again.
(Ed. Note: They also built a wooden train. Also, Finn is always nice. He has just been extra nice in adjusting to our new reality. Actually, I think we have all been great except for a Doops who barks a lot when he is left out)
