Earlier this week I took my camera and met up with my girlfriend at riverside park in New York. She bought a new polaroid camera and was excited to use it. We ate pizza at the park and it was surprisingly empty. We took lots of pictures of each other until this photo stood out to me because I loved the fact that her camera, sweater and bag all matched with each other. Another is that I get to keep these types of pictures and later in the future, look back at them and remember these times.

I'm a writer. The stress of the pandemic has Decreased my creativity. I feel drained, empty; distracted; worried about my friends and family. There's a list in my head of people I haven't heard from recently. Are they OK? The effort of pushing aside these thoughts is enough to leave me with little emotional and creative energy. So not anything new that's creative, and my one creative work--my true love--had become inhibited by the pandemic.
