Get it? Like that TV show Naked and Afraid? Okay, never mind.<\/p>\n<p>I say quarantined and afraid because I have been quarantined in my home with my mother and her fairly new boyfriend. Now, don&#8217;t get me wrong, there&#8217;s nothing wrong with Michael. He&#8217;s an alright guy. But, he&#8217;s very different than my dad.<\/p>\n<p>For example, my dad is all about piercings, tattoos, dyed hair, the whole nine yards. Michael, however, is very against all of that. I have my nose pierced at the moment and I plan on getting more very soon, and he hates it so much, it&#8217;s honestly kind of funny.<\/p>\n<p>Another difference I have noticed is that my mom and I love music very much. It&#8217;s a huge part of our lives. Michael, however, prefers movies and such. He&#8217;s not really a music guy at all.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve officially known Michael as my mom&#8217;s boyfriend for almost a year now. He recently moved in with us. It&#8217;s been a lot of fun. He&#8217;s been helping us renovate our house and paint the walls that have had awful wallpaper on them since I can remember.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve been out of school for a month now, and I realize now how much I took MSA for granted. I would give almost anything to be back. Since I&#8217;ve been home, I&#8217;ve absolutely ruined my sleep schedule. I&#8217;m writing this blog at 8AM on April 6th, and I still haven&#8217;t slept. I need school to have some sort of routine because at this point, everything just feels\u00a0<em>off<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;ll keep y&#8217;all updated on my sanity (or lack thereof at this point).<\/p>\n<p>Peace out, girl scout \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quarantined and Afraid.
