friends are the best

i think im pretty down to earth and realistic. so i understand brexit is most likely happening. but in the case of said brexit, i also have this massive delusion and have a great deal of optimism. for the past year or so, ive been thinking May is purposefully doing a s*** job because she knows if she does this, giving the parliament the most catastrophic brexit options possible, and drags it on to the last minute - that brexit won’t happen. so i think shes actually sacrificing herself and her career, "being the worst PM ever", for the good of the country. and thinking history will absolve her. i guess if u live long enough u will eventuallyfall  for one "conspiracy theory" or another? anyway, this is mine. not sure how i'll spin it when no-deal brexit occurs, time will show? i guess i will still believe in it and say that her plan failed. then wait for her biography to come out in 10 or 20 years and hope it will prove i was right all along! lol.

so Virgin Airlines dropped the make up & skirt requirement from female cabin crew. its one of those news where i dunn whether to laugh or cry. its great of course, but soooo... it took until 2019 for one airline to do this? only 999 more to go. sheesh.
on international womens day there was lots going on. a few male friends wished me a happy IWD. okay, to be honest i dont see the point of it, its like wishing merry christmas i think, but okay, they make an effort to be nice i think, so i'll accept it.
in Russia, Putin congratulated women on being beautiful and gave advice on how to maintain their figures. in Turkey, the womens day march was met with tear gas and rubber bullets - but that hardly surprised anyone - thats the state of things there.

on saturday i invited a few friends over for dinner and chilling. i cooked makaroonilaatikko (yeah the top got a bit too dark, should not have used mozzarella i think) and it was well liked. or everyone lied. nice saturday tho.

we dont have a very busy outgoing lifestyle. i know some couples that are out & about all the time, wall climbing on a sunday morning and so forth. i admire that, but its like looking at ikea catalog and thinking "that looks nice" but thankfully not desperately trying to 'get there'. just realising my life is different and its okay, i cant have many parallel lives at the same time so i need to pick what i really want. and this is nice. sometimes its nice to go somewhere do something, but time at home is important too.

for my 39th birthday doctor took me out to this spanish restaurant thats under a church. and he said he will take me somewhere for a weekend soon.... looking forward to that.
