One day is pretty much the same as another when I'm working on plan B. But weekends are noiser - the kids aren't at school.

Originally posted by RichardCranium View PostIt's not that sad. That's common enough amongst pensioners, the unemployed, long term off sick and benchees. It's the absence of the 5 day working week. I frequently don't know what day of the week it is, nor does my retired Dad, nor does a mate of mine who's been off sick for the last few months.
Don't worry about it.Originally posted by zeitghostI also have difficulty knowing which day of the week it is.
Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays all seem much of a muchness.
Other than Wednesdays being like the Marie Celeste around here.Originally posted by xoggoth View PostYeh, never know what day it is either, I usually add two to what I think it is.
Not that it would have helped the lady in the OP though because it is not on on a Sunday.

Being old can't be that bad. Sometimes the hopelessly insane and confused have something I want so bad. Blissful ignorance. I aim to be like Rowley Birkin QC, he's my hero.Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.Comment

I'm way ahead of you with that one.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

In my observation of a previous neighbour, when you get really old you can go round groping women and they just think it's funny. Unfortunately, you have probably forgotten why you are groping them by then and it's just habit.bloggoth
