Is it Saturday yet?

I am going to blame my absences on my brutal work schedule and leave it at that. Going from self employed to being on someone else's payroll = giving up some freedoms.
Soooo how are the women looking out there? Where I am all I gotta say is dear Lord forgive me for I have sinned and unfortunately will continue to at the going rate. Yes there is a platter of eye candy which you would think at my age I am immune to. Nope no such luck. If you can't find someone that catches your eye here I'd recommend joining a convent. I met a lad while shopping for some body jewelery who proceeded to school me on the gay scene out here. Consider me prepped and in the know.
I am not exactly out at work but I think a few have it figured out esp the schedule maker. I have a late start on gay day and on pride which are days when I would normally have an early start.
Hmmm onto more serious news, I was quite saddened to hear of the passing of MaSisule, one of South Africa's finest. The woman had a will of steel and the discipline that many of us strive for. May she rest in peace.
Have a great weekend folks!

Now to start unpacking

Hey folks,
How are y'all doing this fine week? Happy, tired, hungry ... [insert mood here]? After a rollercoaster week I must say I find myself fairly relaxed today. Had time to do some car maintenance ... you know I'm not afraid of a little grease ... as well as hang out with fam.

• I recently relocated from the Windy and have started my new job. Should be an interesting summer by the looks of things.
• I love having friends who are down for a night of chilling and not doing anything. I had missed that aspect of my life and look forward to building a better harmony between the activities in my life. 
• I was watching mama Oprah's all time favorite guests and saw the segments with Dr Tererai Trent, a fellow country woman of mine. She overcame adversity and found her way to the US to pursue her educational goals. She recently earned her doctorate and is working to build a school in her village in Hurungwe. She is selling tshirts as part of her fundraising efforts and I encourage you to support her worthy efforts to educate her fellow villagers. [I know mama O donated $1.5 million to help with the project, but we all know education ain't cheap and every extra dollar helps.]
• O and shout out to SweetT who came out to her mama last weekend. You go girl!
• And finally Happy Birthday to the future Mrs Ty aka White Orchid.

Another step

... and so life keep moving, evolving and revealing it's mysteries.
Selah.

Hmmm

Greetings, salutations, the Lexus and the Olive Tree (business and pol sci folks should know the book).
It has been a while since I've taken time to sit and write something. Call it laziness or a forced sabbatical. In the 2 months that I've been away, soo much has taken place that I'm not even sure I have fully absorbed the changes.
I'm still quasi spoken for. The phrase it's complicated doesn't even begin to explain the situation. Word to the wise, look before you jump - in fact look twice.
I'm doing what I love to do. I decided to go against the grain and general advice and stick to the area of IT that I like - the paycheck is non existent but I love doing it.
You know you're in a different place in your life when you have time marked off on your calendar to attend to some fraying edges and buttons that fell off during the week.
O I turned 28 in the interim and I must say the late 20s have been interesting thus far. For my birthday, I dressed my niece as a mini me and we got our pimp stroll on. That kid is a flirt and our pick-up mojo is sync. Yessir, whichever team she ends up batting for needs to watch out.
Y'all have a great weekend folks!
