Things have been going good since I returned from holiday and other than the widely publicized racist attack by three white men on a Black man here, I haven’t been angry.
The weather is okay, work is good though Mr. Belgium (co-worker) and I are about to start on another killer project, and there’s a bunch [...]

Now that I’m back in the saddle again, I went out on a date last night with a guy my sister’s been trying to hook me up with for the longest time long-distance.
How we ended up meeting so soon after my return is a story that I may blog about some other day.

I said I’d blog about the second leg of my vacation which was Addis, Gondar etc., and will get to that later.
Today, we went off to my friend Aisha’s place to drop off some outfits I got her and her kids in Addis. Her slimy husband [...]

So good people, I hope you’re happy wherever you are.
One:
My plants and fish are alive and well. Mister Thabiso got a high-five for taking care of them in my absence. He even bought some new plants for the fish tank while I was away and brought back shells from [...]

I had a very productive weekend and hope you did too, or at least, that you enjoyed yours.

(Nice).
On her blog, Mama asked me to write 25 things about myself. So here goes. It’s pretty basic…

(This post is sponsored by Urista’s comment here ). She was talking about karma and it reminded me of something I thought I’d blog about. I know that sometimes I sound harsh when I speak of Christianity… So for the Christians in the house, in the words of Guy, let’s chillll….) [...]
