'Clocks are melting Salvador Dali-style, but I'm taking an actual lunch break.'
Since going into isolation, my concept of time is hazier than a Grateful Dead show. I’m lucky to be able to work from home, but the lack of a commute, coworkers, or appointments has completely eroded any sense of routine. I’ve spent weeks stoically ignoring most of the unsolicited advice online about trying to keep your routine intact.
In my days of office dwelling, I mainly used lunchtime to run errands or wade through my inbox while eating with my coworkers. But now that those things are no longer an option, I'm trying a new approach. For my own good, I set an alarm for 1 p.m. . I also literally called in some reinforcements: my mom, in LA. If you’re not already maxed out on screen-time, you should definitely give FaceTime lunch dates a try.
