Steak, Egg & Chips

Tenderpreneur steak, with egg on top and some chips on the side. Well, that's what I wanted to eat for lunch today. But it was not to be. The Keg & Filly, without informing me has gone and changed the menu. I ended up eating a Mexican burger with guacamole that's given me the shits! Like what da fuck, dudes?  I'm at work, for crying out loud!

Shoulda gone to Ghazal. Too late now. Sorry, can't finish writing this. I gotta run... *damnit*

From here to eternity

I'm Libran. Which means I'm procrastinator extraordinaire!
There's one thing that I've always wanted to do and it's only now that I've grown big enough balls to do. And that, my friend, is a tattoo. I've just spent the past 2hrs looking for a style/design that I like. I've found the tattoo artist in Parkhurst. Seen his work. Impressive. So, I know I can trust him.
Tattoo guns... they shoot to ink.
The question is...what to write on my body... for eternity?

They say it's painful. But in this life, what isn't? So, hopefully in the next two weeks I'll upload pics of my work of art.

Lest we forget

 So, tomorrow, June 16, marks the day Soweto students stood up against the bullshit of being forced to study in the language of their oppressor. Many years later, many people are still made to feel small and unclean when expressing themselves in their mother tongues, yet when Italians, Chinese and many other nations mispronounce English words, it is understood that this is not their first language.

What's sad is that when White South Africans mispronounce our names, we understand that ours is not their first language. So, mad respect to all those who express themselves in their mother tongues. To all writers who write in their own languages, I salute you. Language is everything!

Winter Wonderland



So, it's winter here in Jozi... a fucking cold winter, I tell ya... I now bring my fan-heater to the office. It's sad, but I'm not about to freeze my balls just to prove how much of a man I am. In fact, it's so cold that my brain froze and I forgot I had a blog to maintain. You can't write with frozen fingers, y'know. That's my explanation and I'm sticking to it.

Lots has happened since then. Some of it good. Some it just plain stupid.
I've taken a major decision that'll change my life in a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge way. Will tell you once it's done. Hint: At the end of this month.
So, stay indoors, get lots of sex, keep warm, drink that vino and reminisce about Summer.
Oh, here's a PS: I've rediscovered the beautiful sounds of Freddie Joachim. Dude is a master at this art we like to call Mellow.















Be safe out there, it's rough!
