Bad Day

 We were meant to be going out to a friends for lunch today. We are allowed such freedoms over here. And then they cancelled. Normally that would be met with a shrug of the shoulders, a quick FFS, and a plan to perhaps have a day out or go for a meal somewhere. But those are luxuries that are not available to us these days. We would have gone to the coast but there isn't anything open and we would have to leave very early to get home before curfew. And so no meal out either.

Shouldn't be a problem, but things like that in these times take on an extra downturn. So today hasn't been just a bit of a disappointment but more.

And then news came that the Magnificent M's best friends mother died early today. Not from covid but she had advanced Alzheimers. no-one with her because of restrictions, but she died clutching her teddy bear. At least her friend will be allowed to go to a funeral.

This covid is just a complete bastard.

I suppose that because of all the restrictions we have had to endure this past year, a simple meal with some friends becomes a much anticipated event, so to have it cancelled at the last minute makes for a bigger disappointment than it would usually be.

It's easier to be like me, Dave, and not have any friends.

Friends are overrated. Get a dog.
