Here's a question we desperately want an answer to: What is it that normal people do all day? Like, say they wanted to go do some shopping. Do they just get out of the house, go in their car, do the shopping, and get back home? Is it really that simple? What do they do with the remaining 23 hours? For us doing this simple chore is like an entire Season of a drama series. First, we need to make sure that it's absolutely necessary for us to do the shopping, there is no use going out there if we still have a can of beans somewhere we can survive on for now. Then going out the door, hoping no neighbor decides to step out of his house and start being friendly with us.

Then, when we get to the store, the endless over-thinking over every item, the standing in line without touching anyone, the social interaction with the cashier, and the drive back home. By the time we get back to our safe zone, it's been 8 hours and we are mentally drained! And we didn't even buy the thing we went out for.
