Coronavirus Diary

Day 40 26th April 2020

There are now 3,308 cases in Northern Ireland, 152,840 in the UK and 19,262 in Ireland. It seems like there may be less infections each day so that's good. Although I don't know how I'll go back to work, it's been pretty nice relaxing at home.

Today I got up and I saw that my friend Bradley was angry with a joke I'd made. It was from The Office, you say something about up dog and hope that people ask, "What's up dog?" Bradley was angry because his dog died recently and I hadn't thought of that when I sent the joke. So he was angry with me and I apologised. My friend Nathan joined in the conversation since it's a group chat and Bradley got angry with him too.

I know that Bradley can hold grudges for a long time. He fell out with my friend Ethan and they didn't talk to each other for nearly a year. So I don't know if Bradley will stop being my friend, I hope we'll stay friends, but with him it's hard to tell.

I watched In For a Penny. They did the one where they have to reverse into a parking space and most of them were good. It was really funny because there was a guy on who thought that Stephen Mulhern was actually Ant McPartlin. And he kept saying Ant and Dec are better than Stephen.

There was also a car that had three seats in the front of the car because the middle one was for the dog. Stephen found the blanket that the dog sat on and he kept talking about it, it was pretty funny.

The best bit was at the end when a woman was doing the in for a penny in for a grand and she kept asking Stephen to kiss her. He kissed her every time on the lips! And this was like a really old women, she was probably old enough to be his mum or maybe even his granny. It was so funny!

Then I watched an old episode of The Jonathan Ross Show and Jeremy Clarkson was on. It showed the clip from Who Wants to be a Millionaire where he completely messed up. The question was what is an ibex and the options were goat, deer and two others. The guy said it was a deer and Jeremy said I don't even need to look at the answer, you're right, but the answer was actually a goat! It seemed really awkward!

I also did some more work on my dissertation and I think I've finished the transcript part which is good. But it was easy, so I'll have to go onto the more difficult parts.

I watched Spongebob and Mr. Krabs got injured so Squidward was in charge of the Krusty Krab. It was really funny because Squidward left to relax but he kept running back because he thought some kind of disaster would happen with Spongebob in charge. It turned out that it had been closed the whole time.

In the second episode Spongebob made a horrible 'ice cream Sunday'. He didn't have ice cream so he put tomato sauce, onions and a peanut plant into the bowl and he ate it. His breath stunk so everyone was avoiding him and he thought it was because he was ugly. He figured out it was his breath when Patrick ate the same thing.

Then I watched Britain's Got Talent. There was a young girl on who was a great singer and her voice was very mature for her age. Simon gave her the golden buzzer which I thought was great.

There was a minister on who was doing comedy but I didn't think he was funny. Although the judges liked him so he got through.

There was a creepy dance group on who were like possessed or demons, it was pretty creepy but good.

There was a scientist magician on, his first trick was putting paper on fire and making a flower appear which was pretty cool. But the best bit was when there was a giant Newton's Cradle which is a line of poles with balls at the bottom and they swing in the exact same pattern each time. So the guy was blindfolded and the balls were on fire and he walked through them! It was so tense! Then he said at the end that the timing of it was wrong, so it made it even riskier.

Then I watched Gogglebox and Lee recorded Jenny snoring and played it for her, it was pretty funny. They all watched a show called Too Hot to Handle, I haven't seen it. But it seemed like people who are addicted to sex and don't like commitment go and live in a house together and they can earn money but anytime they kiss, have sex or masturbate money is deducted.

I saw one clip and it was a guy and he persuaded a girl to kiss him. Then he told everyone that she was the one who'd kissed him! He tried to put the blame on her! And even worse he was talking to a different girl and calling the one he'd kissed crazy and toxic. He honestly seemed very manipulative and it seemed like he was gas lighting as well, I really hope no one ever dates him. People like him are horrible!

After that I watched Grey's Anatomy and Jo treated her therapist for carbon monoxide poisoning and we got to see some of Jo's therapy. I thought it was really good when they threw things at the wall when Jo was angry.

Richard's friend who is an alcoholic made a move on him and tried to make him cheat on Catherine. I was glad that Richard rejected her and I thought what she did was very inappropriate.

Zola had to get an operation, so Meredith missed her court hearing that she was meant to go to for missing so many hours of community service. Thankfully Zola was fine, but Meredith went to jail. At jail she got to know her roommate and she was poor and working two jobs and she had kids. She was in jail because she had left her kids home alone when she went to work and there were police at her house when she went to check on the kids. She hit a police officer but I think it was more trying to get them out of the way so that she could see her kids. I think Meredith will help her, so that's good.

It was also Halloween and there was a kid in who got burned if she went into the sunlight and she was sad that she was going to miss out on Halloween. But there was a party for all the kids and Levi had to organise it. It was so cute because there was a kid who wanted a costume and Levi had to help him, Levi went through loads of costumes but the kid didn't want any of them. The kid said he wanted to be a sunflower so Levi went and made him a costume, it was so sweet!

Zola was annoyed with DeLuca the whole day because he'd tried to help her with her wings and it reminded her of Derek. He'd fixed her wings before when they were broken, it makes me really miss Derek and all the other characters who are dead.

Miranda told Ben that she's pregnant and he seems really happy. I felt sorry for Bailey because the whole day she was nearly crying because of her hormones. She finally burst out crying when Koracick said he'd made a Star Wars costume for his kid for Halloween but he never got to wear it because he died. It was pretty sad.

That's it for today, I hope you're all healthy.
