Me: This isn’t crippling depression. I’m working from home.
Postman: What?
Me: You know, I answered the door in sweatpants with hair that isn’t exactly done at 4:30 pm. I just didn’t want you to worry.
Postman: Oh.
Me: I’m a writer. And I’d ask what you do, but the uniform’s a giveaway. You work for the postal system. At least I hope so or I guess I should be worried that I opened the door for a psycho killer or something!
Postman: Will you just sign here?
My daytime fashion isn’t the only thing that’s deteriorated due to working from home…social skills, know that you’re missed.
