You know those songs that you think you know the words to until you’re actually singing them in public and everyone stares at you? As I grow older, I’m coming across more and more of those. Most of these songs are songs that I’ve “known” since childhood… little did I know, I was living a [...]

This morning, our HR lady bought a bunch of nice, big, ripe peaches and brought them to the office. She brought me one after lunch that she had put aside for me, since I had missed the rush and clamor that morning of all the fatties trying to get to the food first (I am [...]

Yesterday on my drive home, a police car sidled up beside me on the highway. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw his car and glanced to my right, then did a double-take because the driver was not the standard FatCop that I’m accustomed to in SA – he was actually pretty cute. [...]

I like being barefoot. Right now, under my desk at work, my shoes are off. I’m getting ready to have to take some papers across the building, across the cold cold tile floor. In addition to not wanting to get my feet cold and dirty, walking around an office building without shoes is generally viewed [...]
