I’m not 100% right now, breaking a little bit of a fever right now on day ten now. I’ve been quarantined.

On how the last week unfolded…

I’ve been down to New Orleans, Louisville, and Lexington traveling for Tin Roof. My body was kind of weak on Wednesday, and I just didn’t feel right. Walking between my car to my house, I’m in the process of moving right now, I had shortness of breath.
