Really hard.<\/p>\n<p>Hell, I&rsquo;m at the point where I found myself giddy with anticipation at the prospect of going in for an MRI yesterday, even though it meant:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A) Going into a hospital which is where there are many sick people who can infect and possibly take me out.<\/li>\n<li>B) I freaking hate MRIs cause they&rsquo;re just nasty.<\/li>\n<li>C) While lying there with a smooth hard surface six inches from my face, I can&rsquo;t help but wonder if they wiped it down before I went in and if not, if the person before me coughed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>But at least I was out of the house and got to see people. Even though they were all masked and gowned and nobody wants to talk to anybody else cause we&rsquo;re all scared.<\/p>\n<p>I&rsquo;ve got a phone appointment with my Doc this morning. On the one hand, I get the need to protect me and for her to protect herself. But dang. I had been looking forward to a face-to-face. Hell of a thing when a doctor&rsquo;s appointment is the highlight of your social calendar. I mean, I would have looked forward to a prostate exam if it meant some conversation with somebody I like. &ldquo;Prostate check? Hell yeah doc! I&rsquo;m up for it if you JUST FREAKING TALK TO ME!!!!&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Oh well. I know that most bad things pass or that we learn to manage them. But it&rsquo;s easier when we can hug our friends.<\/p>\n<p>When things return to something resembling normal, I&rsquo;ll head back to Wellspring, but a warning to others &ndash; Wear something absorbent. I&rsquo;m afraid all this quarantine loneliness may have turned me into a crier.<\/p>\n<h4>Recommended Posts<\/h4>\n<article>\n                        <a
