Sleepy... Tired and wondering...

I slept badly.

Okay, I should probably amend that to I took a series of catnaps...
A scenario where you only snatch a few clicks of sleep is not exactly lovely. Added to the complex journey which brought me and my friend home last night because we (referring of course to that general body of ever-adapting people summarized in one simple word: Nigerians) are currently experiencing a "lack" of petrol, which has caused transportation costs to sky rocket and have left countless number of commuters littering the various bus stops.

I left my office at about 6:45 pm yesterday but I got home at about 9:00 pm - the reason is something that I refuse to go into - who knows, for those who are actually crazy, I would suggest a trip to Nigeria with a specific port of call (Lagos).
It is a place that constantly flirts with danger. Everything's a bet - and you're almost always the loser...

But as my friend Danny Ocean(Ocean's eleven) put it: the house always wins...

I am pretty darn sure that the experience will be one you'll not forget till the day you die - My promise!

It's a crazy town with crazier people.
It is a town run and governed by the need to make money - lots of it in as short a time as possible.

It is estimated that you spend a typical (12 hours of the day in the work place), the hours between can be spent getting to work or leaving.
Fact: Your home or house is simply a stop over - eat (if you have the energy), sleep for five to six hours and then restart the whole fray again...

I know that a better life exists and I'm so seriously looking for it!
This is most definitely NOT that life...

Thank God - It's friday...

The lull of sleep calling to me like the songs of the sirens

can u imagine a case when your eyes are so heavy they weigh a ton and then some...
I was fighting with sleep and guess who had the upper hand?

Even the mere effort of writing this missal was an effort too much - meanwhile, i haven't eaten anything today and my stomach grumbles with the effort...

Work today is like a cook with too many pans on the stove - I've learnt the meaning of multitasking as applied to me, myself and I...

My trusted friend celebrated his birthday on the 8th of december 2006 and it was by his estimation - a very uneventful day...
We lost the excuse to party and it was particularly painful for him - i didn't help matters and it must have soiled his mood (Sorry dan!)

Anyway belated birthday wishes - here's to further success in your life and many happy returns for the rest of the year!

We are 20 days shy of the end of year and my typing skills have deteriorated to the extent that I'm mis-typing words... I'm brain & body tired and i wonder why that should be? I slept well at least on sunday and i woke up by 5:45 am...
