4 seasons, nah......make it 6/7 or something like that in one day

the sky is falling!
the sky is falling!!

and it didnt....
but what did happen was niiccccccccccceeeeeeee.

mother nature unleashed a little bit yesterday evening. just a few minutes and damage like nobody's business.

first came the dark clouds. saw that coming.
then came the lightning. ooohhhhh definitely saw THAT!!!
then came the dust. saw that coming.
then came the winds. saw that coming.
then came the absolute sandstorm. couldnt see hand two inches in front of face. didnt see that. couldnt see that.
then the hail. definitely didnt see that coming.
then the flooding of the streets.
all this in 10 minutes.
and then just like that it was over.

headin back to my room and all along the broken path it looked like cluster bomb attack. i made my way to the udupi joint, and i didnt think they were gonna serve food. glass all over the place. well dearies, when there is that kind of pressure build up on the outside, open windows/doors to equalise the pressure on the inside. dont and you will have glass or light walls caving. so dinner at udupi was out of the question.

chinese wok. they looked ok. no damage. so i went and i ate. then the girl tells me the building had a water tank tip over and flood the roof and the stairway. oh well, the noodles were good and nobody got injured or died. then the girl decided she needed someone to talk to. and i listened, but did she have to tell me of all things some females are subjected to and have to do in order to survive? hmmm.

there was the usual debris like antennae, dish antennae, glass, tin roof, cars that had holes punched in them(due to flying metal bits n pieces), cats.....

mother nature. for all her ferocity, so rocks!!

clone encounters for the ra kind

dozed off a couple of times in the workshop/introductory session yesterday at work.

and for the first time ever, i had absolutely nothin, yesssssss, NOTHIN TO DO AT WORK YESTERDAY!!!!!!

my dear colleagues decided to impart(unleash is more the word) all of their infinite wisdom today. was given tips - unanimous it was - as follows:

1)my chin beard must go. so i havent let a razor touch my chin in six years. trimmed the beard regularly.....but its only been 6 years......damn! ok will give it a try. this had better work.

2)must smile(i do smile, on the inside)

3)must get more colors in my wardrode(i think its just about pefect right now. hmmm, do shades of black count?)

4)spike my hair(maybe use it as a puncturing weapon thingie)

5)be optimistic(that i am already. my optimistic nature tells me the glass needs to be filled so that i dont go thirsty. my optimistic and positive nature tells me we're doomed. im positive about that)

6)must buy ferrari(only one? im supposed to impress members of the opposite sex)



on a different note, it does feel nice, if nothing else, that people actually consider your work. they may not say it out loud or seem to not acknowledge, and that can be a real downer, but i reckon if timed is great for the ego and self belief system that most of us rely on. sometimes you have one of those daze and then murphy's laws decide to kick in to add a sore in an already itchy place.

then there are moments like yesterday wherein it makes all the madness worth it. fleeting moment, but worth it nonetheless. i ll take it. just like i ll take that last brownie. mmmmmm. brownie good.

i was gonna but decided against it, so there.

yawn, burp, yawn, scratch male parts, yawn.....

today is the last of a series. a series of days off. been a while coming. and i got to sleep as planned. a lot. back to guantanamo tomorrow.

so i walk in to ye olde donut shoppe and then....i see it. the biggest croissant ever. the mother of all croissants. the girl behind the counter called it a turtle. well then a turtle that looks like a croissant is what i eat. muahahahaha! {ahem}



{i wonder if i can get the whole thing down in one bite.....nah, maybe when i was younger, the good ol daze when we wuz young.}

while i trip on kyuss, i look ahead to face yet another uninspiring week.

woo-hah. im so excited.

in other news, i have actually been asked to write lyrics for two albums. metal/death core even. hmmm. my non-existent writing skills now come to the fore. i have already got two songs down. 36 to go. at least.

MD round the corner. hope i gets me stuff so i can buy.

i shot an arrow into the air
it fell i know exactly where
the childrens' screams
were no mere dreams
with "love" from: the landmines of despair
