Meaning - doing these things without worrying about a worldwide pandemic. Aka - pre-COVID.

Kissing

don't get me wrong, the rest is pretty awesome too, but kissing and really feeling an even deeper connection through that is genuinely missed

Eom

Lots of kissing and meeting new gentlemen.

Definitely miss dining out and general socializing

Shows. Live music. Venues. Not just The Metro (although it was the first venue in Chicago I'd gone to), but any number of the local venues. Ugh. I miss it.

Gone of the days of just walking in a straight line. Now most dog owners are scanning ahead for other walkers and dogs. Do I need to turn at this intersection? Cross the street? At last resort, walk in the grassy edge and hope it's 6 feet? It's a little tiring!

Prior to COVID I would travel, most often out of state, at least 3X per month.  Opens up a world of variety in the hobby. Now, no travel.  My company is small, and may not resume the travel policy unless absolutely necessary.
