On the weekend

everyone had to put their clocks forward. As you might imagine I’m not a fan of the governcunt literally altering what time of day it is. It’s not to help anyone other than people who can make money off it. It’s profitable for commerce that people can stay out later and buy things, that’s the basis of it. Your internal body clock gets fucked over, but understand that people have products for you to consume, and that’s all that matters. It’s fucking windy today too. That’s March though. Last year March stretched into April, I hope we don’t get a repeat of that.

On Twitter, in Haiti, ‘cannibal gangs’ are eating people. In Hollywood the same thing is happening essentially, but they’ve dressed it up with glitter and lights. On CNBC there is an entertaining article, under the heading PSYCHOLOGY AND RELATIONSHIPS. “If you and your partner use any of these 5 phrases regularly, your relationship is stronger than most.” What are these relationship strengthening phrases? I was curious to know.

Number one was, “Thank You”. Off to a flying start here…how about “No thank you?” That can be useful too. 2. “Help me understand this.” I don’t think I’ve ever used that phrase in any relationship. If you need help “understanding something” in a relationship, you might be in the wrong relationship. 3. “I can forgive you. Can you forgive me?” No I can’t, no I won’t, although depending on what it is… maybe. Generally I don’t forgive, and certainly don’t go around begging for forgiveness, because I’m always right. 4. “I am committed to you.” If someone says that to you, it probably means they’re in doubt about it. If you had a decent relationship, it wouldn’t be necessary to say it in the first place. 5.  “I like you.” Really? That’s nice. I had no idea. Thanks CNBC. I went to Costco and they told me that they loved me. I think it’s kind of a lame list. More appropriate for a business partnership. There’s no excitement there. I’d add a couple more (albeit crude, but to the point) that will keep the relationship on an even keel. 6. You look hot today/tonight/right now. 7. Wanna fuck? It could go either way, but it needs to be said or at least implied on a regular basis. If you relationship is good, you won’t need to say anything at all.

This fucking wind is blowing a gale right now. It feels like it could take the front off the house. Everyone here in the North East who lives in an old house has the same problem. When the wind blows like this it will find its way inside. This place is particularly prone to that phenomenon. It’s three stories, long and narrow. It’s almost like living in a giant wall. Naturally when it’s windy and the wind hits the wall it blasts through any crack it can find. There are probably 70 windows in this place and some of them are at least 60 years old. The windows are gradually being replaced, but it’s a slow process and expensive. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, do never buy an old house that needs things fixing.
