Isolation humour, by J.C. Kavanagh




Short-listed for Best Young Adult Book 2018,
The Word Guild


As a writer, I'm used to staying home for long periods of time in my own creative world, in the playground-of-my-mind as I like to call it. But a forced stay-at-home is not so easy. I miss my family and friends.

This pandemic has altered routine. Nothing is 'normal' anymore. Headlines about COVID-19 are found on every social media platform. Deaths/ confirmed cases / pending cases - these statistics are broadcast from news outlets around the world, pretty much on an hourly basis. I want to close my eyes and cover my ears to temporarily halt the onslaught.

So I've come up with a distraction of sorts. 

I search for light-hearted content on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, even CNN. There are hundreds of light-hearted pieces out there. So, to brighten your day and shift from the sad realities choking our collective mood, I'm sharing a few pieces I've found and/or copied and/or revised.






Thirty days hath September,
April, June, and November,
all the rest have thirty-one
except March and April which have 8,000













Only in Canada, eh? 
Remember, social distancing equals two hockey sticks.














And while we're on the topic of hairs....



Stay safe everyone.
