I'm travelling in to my place of work today for the first time since 19 March, for a building induction.
It's five minutes until the train arrives, and the platform has all of eight people on it. In the Before Times, it would have been packed since this is the last train to arrive at the University before 9 AM.
I have my mask and water and hand sanitiser. I'm still very nervous.

in case it's useful, even if youre not going in regularly, just to keep in your pocket, here's a short list of other things you might experience that would also be normal:
- every time you do something or go somewhere new, a little, troubling, entirely psychosomatic throat tickle or warm isthatafever?
- utter exhaustion, out of scale with your activities or exertion.
- clumsiness, like prioperception completely offline.
those've been common among the folks i know as we've gone back to work/kept working. i also alternate between lack of focus and hyperfocus and--my favorite weird one--my ear canals hurt. best explanation we've been able to come up with for that one was that, absent a visible threat, i am listening for one. all the time.
