Tomorrow is YAYday

Mechanical Heart

National Idiot Day

Wow, wow (Christopher walken - 'wow') What in the name... of all things great... is going on today... It seems like every person and scenario I have come into contact with today, has either temporarily gone insane, or decided that talking shit is the answer for the problem I present them with. Not only have people become stupid over the phone, they have also become stupid on the road. The amount of people who never knew they were turning left at a traffic circle today set new records in the playing field of lucky packet license drivers. I spent what was close to 20 minutes on the phone with someone who didn't know what a 'margin' was and couldn't locate it when I told her it was to the right of the column she was looking at.... she then proceeded to tell me all the things she could read on the screen, and that nowhere did it say the word 'column'. At this point, I held the phone away from my ear, closed my eyes, took a deep breath and described to her what a column is and what a margin is and that by clicking in it, we will get somewhere.. As I said after 20 minutes she found the elusive margin and the next task was getting her to figure out what clicking and dragging was, I almost had a meltdown. Surely.... SURELY, my capabilities in the workplace far exceed explaining to a DFU the basics of left and right clicking in margins to select items in a list. OMFG. So these were upon the list of radical shit I had to deal with today. Our printer is also possessed. It says its printing - yet doesn't print a damn thing and when it does eventually decide to, it prints random lines all over the show, making everything illegible and hindering work being done by staff in the office. Patience is wearing thin at this stage, but I'm soldiering through.. If God is testing me, then hells bells I hope I'm scoring serious points, or something very rewarding is coming my way, coz this is next level shit. The cherry on the cake is when my rep in Umtata tells me he won't be making the Christmas lunch next week Friday, "because, um, my dear, I think there might be a funeral on that day". Oh really?? Might be? So what you're saying is that somebody in Umtata might potentially die this week, that you potentially know and the funeral is something you potentially need to attend? Great, completely justified..........., see you next year then. Pffft. That and the fact that his car that was in an accident 9 months ago is still at the panel beaters 'coz its a big story' he drove  a Toyota for f*sakes, there are no big stories that last that long, he couldn't afford the excess most likely and left it there... now travelling for work is 'inconvenient' when the request comes from me, (nevermind the fact that we cover every kilometer of petrol ever!) but on his side he's working flatout you know...... well unfortunately its inconvenient for me too, coz I have an S2000, and it's inconvenient to drive through King Williamstown in it. Sooooo sort that shit.

Can my phone stop ringing now, can drama stop flocking my way like fat kids to a cupcake store, seriously. I'm over today. Thank you. Hahaha, flipsakes............................

One step closer.................

I cannot take this anymore

Saying everything I've said before

All these words they make no sense

I find bliss in ignorance

Less I hear the less you'll say

You'll find that out anyway

Just like before...

Everything you say to me

Takes me one step closer to the edge

And I'm about to break

I need a little room to breathe

Cause I'm one step closer to the edge

I'm about to break

I find the answers aren't so clear

Wish I could find a way to disappear

All these thoughts they make no sense

I find bliss in ignorance

Nothing seems to go away

Over and over again

Just like before...

Everything you say to me

Takes me one step closer to the edge

And I'm about to break

I need a little room to breathe

Cause I'm one step closer to the edge

And I'm about to break

Shut up when I'm talking to you

Shut up, shut up, shut up

Shut up when I'm talking to you

Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up

I'm about to BREAK

What an absolutely EPIC night......! For so long Linkin Park was on my list of bands to see, and finally they decided to make their way down here. It wasn't even a question whether I'd go or not, just a matter of who was coming with me! Jeannine was game from the outset, so her and I planned a trip that was going to be another sweet as Cape Town vibe. So much was gonna be going down in cpt that week and weekend, and so many firsts all round. But Linkin park was brilliant.. We danced and jumped up and down and sang (pretty much shouting) to every number. Yip..... insane vibes!! Buggered after, but flip what a jol...............

 

Road trippin' to the place where memories are made

Cape Town vibes.................. Nothing quite like the feeling you get when you know you're headed to a place that makes you smile :) Not only was I going up with a newbie for my road trips, I was also doing it in a newbie too............. lil yellow beast took us to cape town in super cool and comfortable styles. Jeannine and I were warming up our voices the whole way there with 'caryn type' convo's and looooads of singing. Hahaha, ridiculous.... but was a cool trip for sure. Keen for my other buddies to pull into town soon too..................... :) Cape Town - everyone's doin it!

Hahaha, J9 getting action shots of my first roadster roadtrip :P

Little Beast in CPT, just chilling, maxing, relaxing all cool in Tableview :)

Just getting my bike ready....

Sunday vibes....

31 October (Halloween) - Where I'm at..

 

Ok, so a few things...............like no more controls on the steering wheel, and not being able to find my door handle or window buttons in the dark. Hahaha.... It'll come with time I guess.. Manually switching on my lights and windscreen wipers, and having to unclip the front loader when I get out the car, and consequently put it back in when I get back in.. So minor luxury changes or convenience for the luxury experience of a vehicle. 

Things that make me feel like I'm in seventh heaven.................. Full leather interior, insane sound system, start button for engine, Proper wheels! Great car sound, convertible, one and only :)

Lots to get used to and plenty to learn about it.... can't wait to make it 'mine'........ Though for now, it's pretty damn fine as it is...  little things here and there.. but all in time to ensure it's right.

Nothing comes easy.......

.......... but when you have it....... take care to keep it.............

Happiness is -

being in love................................................................................. and today that's all I feel..............

Where is my mind.............

My mind right now, to state it rather blatantly, (and for lack of a better word..) is a clusterfuck of emotions. Highs and lows, excitement, disappointment, feeling alive, feeling tired... it keeps going back and forth... hence the fact that my sleep routine is so muddled, sometimes I'm exhausted, other times I can barely get any sleep? In essence, the one might be causing the other. hahahaha. duh. So let's just say that at least there's a healthy balance of smiles and frowns, so i don't foresee any meltdown/come down on the horizon. Hahaha. Well before I can paint a picture with words of what's to come, let me rather show some pictures that depict my 'cluster'.....................................................
