Freaky weather

Talk about freaky weather.

The sky was clear when I got home and not even half hour later.

And now there is a huge thunderstorm, with a strong wind, trees blowing.

There is usually loads of thunder and lightening before it rains but not this time.

Shoo, I'm glad I got home just on time.

Married to your job

We were having a discussion in the office earlier today regarding one of the managers who seems to be married to his work. His in first thing in the morning probably round 6h00 am and leaves probably round 7h30 to 8h00 pm, almost every day besides Friday.

I've no idea what would keeps him here almost everyday and defintely would not ask him just in case his in one of his moods.

Let's be honest now how many of you are 'married to your job' and besides meeting deadlines what is the reason that you would work each day such long hours?

If I have deadlines to meet I work overtime but to do this on a regular basis is defintely not for me.

Merry Christmas!

It's 1st December, which means of course, at last, its time to put Sufjan Stevens - Songs For Christmas on heavy rotation.

I love this song so much it gives me goosebumps. I could not recommend that album enough, for non-humbugs at least.

good god

My sister's friend's daughter has just had a baby. She (the mother) has just turned 20 and lives at home. The pregnancy was an accident. It was the 2nd pregnancy in a few months, the first time she had an abortion because the mother convinced her having a baby would ruin her life.

Anyway. The baby was born having seizures. The poor little thing has cerebral palsy, is blind and paralysed from the neck down.

What a fucked situation. A lifetime of pain. For mother and son. I don't know that I'd want to live if I was born like that.

Blimey!

A man on Radio 2 right now, arguing in favour of introducing massive monster trucks on British roads, just used the phrase "n***er in the woodpile". In this day and age! WHat could he possibly have been thinking?

Anyway, from that point on he'd basically lost the argument. Have you ever said anything pointless and/or stupid and lost the respect of your audience?

Okra. Do you like it?

I just scored a few pounds of it for free and trying it out and freezing some of it.
I actually tried making a smoothie with it with a little sweet potato and avocado and it came out really nice after adding honey an cinnamon. Although I feel really super bloated now and just read okra is a natural laxative.

I'd rate ths veggie at about a 7 so far.
