Is it OK to find humor in the COVID-19 pandemic?
“What the hell else can we do at this point but laugh?” my friend told me.
But what if you lost a loved one to COVID-19? And then there are long-term side effects, suffering from long-haul COVID, “multiorgan effects,” or PTSD, which can be caused by distance learning trust me. Not so funny. People in India are not laughing these days.
I’ve struggled with this for the past year when writing about COVID. I look back at articles I wrote in February and March 2020 and want to climb under the covers and eat Haagen-Dazs white chocolate raspberry truffle ice cream by the gallon while watching “Outlander” again.

Here is what I should be thinking about this week: the stimulus bill, especially with its groundbreaking child tax credit; women in Afghanistan as peace negotiations continue in Qatar; the unprecedented number of unaccompanied children arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border; and last but certainly not least how to throw both of my sons’ birthday parties this weekend, pandemic-style, again.
