Definitions

Love - when someone makes you say yes to everything,
Hate - when someone makes you say no to everything,
Humour - when you forget who you're supposed to say yes and no to,
Anxiety - when you can't remember if you've changed your pants.

Health - admitting you'reĀ  an alcoholic, drug addict and pervert,
Downright indecency - denying that you're any of them,
Forgetfulness - thinking you've been married fifty years, not ten,
Realization - being married for ten years, thinking it's fifty.

Deceit - pretending you've read Tolstoy, Nash and Girl magazine,
Actuality - not giving a shit whether you've read any of them,
Hypochondria - thinking that you've got the clap and gonorrhoea,
Awareness - suddenly being told that actually it's true.

Desperation - losing your keys, not being able to enter your house,
Horror - finding them and what awaits you with the rolling pin.

UK is still in lockdown for now. Lots of people either working from home or on furlough. Every Thursday 8pm we all say thanks to nhs and other services by clapping outside our front doors.
Strange times.
