I know!

I know! I know ...It’s me again….I know….To the one or two people who I routinely force to read this blog,  and any other person who bumps on it from time to time….I know….this is not what consistency looks like….. I wonder if I’m the only one who makes promises fully convinced that I will actually keep them, then when I don’t, I’m just as surprised as the person I made the promise to. This goes to all the people I have promised to find time and visit or meet but I haven’t…..trust me I wasn’t lying…..or maybe I was…..I just didn’t know about it. 

How time flies! This time I will not say I have been thinking about passing through here….I haven’t. In fact, it has been anything…but. For one, because I thought I had more important things to focus on…. not that writing was a distraction, but some events really do force you to try and take yourself a little seriously….or at least appear to be….lol. And one such event led to me disappearing for a while….not that anyone noticed anyway, but…turns out, if you really want to know what you’re thinking about….pick a pen and write , whatever I have written these past few months are better suited for my  diary.

So now that my diary is full, or rather because whatever story I was writing had an abrupt sad ending, I have to find a distraction…. So I’m back to my normal….which is complaining to strangers online…..haha Ok,….This time I will try not to do too much of that….but that I can’t promise. What I can promise is….whenever I disappear….be sure I will re-appear somehow. Now that I'am here,my usual would be to talk about what has been going on in the past week or so….or whatever crazy things I have been thinking about….truth is, I can’t say much about the past few weeks. I have been home, warm comfortable and fed….turns out that's  all I care about. Let no one say anything….East,West, home really is the best. And before you get really bored….let me keep this short and precise….I really don’t have much to say to you today anyway….I just hope you’re doing okay wherever you are….I wish you nothing but love, happiness and all the good things life has to offer, whatever you do, save some of these for yourself too…sometimes all it takes is being just being home without a care of anything else in the world…

Anything but tidy….

 I struggle to justify my love for words…I have very few in my vocabulary…..and whenever we are in a conversation and someone says something I didn’t quite catch…chances are…I’ll probably ask….sometimes I will just ask even though I already know…it’s interesting to hear another person’s perspective….especially if it’s an idiom….or a word that I would never naturally use in a sentence…..I will sometimes take a mental note of something said because it sounded goofy, or smart or if it just had an easy flow. I also admire people who use their words with ease....it’s like hey! Can we be friends? CRINGE WORTHY! I have written more cringe worthy things I promise….these same words have a way of coming back to bite me. It’s a toxic relationship…. But one we are not planning to let go….  MORE CRINGE WORTHY? Not enough cringe I guess! Since the goal is to have something written down….we are going to strive for consistency by any means regardless….so here goes the process of finding something mean

A close shave

So one of the perks of shaving hair is the freedom and bliss of standing under a running shower….an obvious one. The other obvious one is saving yourself from the energy and cost of   salon trips and the pain, frustration and anger that comes with braiding hair…especially those dread-lock looking braids that are……well, cute…and a bad idea at the same time. It doesn’t help if you have a streak of impatience within you which comes alive when you sit to get your braids done…much so if you can relate to those kids who scream when they get braided…it’s the same exact feeling but for being an adult, you do not have the same liberty to throw tantrums even though it would be completely justified and so you shove your stupid frustrations down your… (Exactly that)…and pay for it with cold hard cash….and a smile. For a moment you will look at the mirror and feel pleased with yourself for being patient enough to sit through this horrible experience…until it’s time to sleep and it’s a whole o

My two cents...

Yesterday my laptop went off suddenly in the middle of a movie. I was convinced that’s it because it had started showing signs. Two days prior, I had lost literally everything I have ever saved on here-(what I thought was half my life lol). Turns out I don’t really need any of it because I’m still waiting to feel that ka pain that comes with loosing things .I can’t think of anything important other than the thousand versions of my Cv ,cover letters a myriad of my once late night assignments, some soft copy books…and countless drafts of unfinished ideas. That has been the misfortune of the week. A small one.  So today I decided to try it just one more time before locking it away and forgetting about it like I forget all my problems. Guess what? It worked! I really believe in miracles because I have no explanation for this so I’m just here trying to appreciate this old companion of mine (we really do spend a lot of time together). What better way to do that than to write on it one more t
