I could have sworn today had atleast 27hrs!!Morning seems like it was days away and all i can remember is waking up to find mini-me aka my 1.5yr old nephew staring at me straight in the face.At first in my sleepy state i kinda thought my eyes had somehow turned inside out and i was staring at myself cos am not used to waking up to find someone in my bed.Just then i checked the time and realized it was almost 8am and today was when id decided to go out and treat myself to a birthday present since this year i didnt get to go out and satisfy my craze for gadgets.Got up and quickly rushed to shower and mini-me came running since he always wants to copy what i do.Told him i needed to shower and he should go watch telly instead but when i got out of the shower i found him sitted on the floor outside the door waiting for his turn.i knew he wouldnt leave peacefully so i let him wash his face and hands and locked the bathroom door just incase he got ideas about learning how to swim in the bath tub.He screamed,stamped his little feet then went running to his mum to report that i had denied him the opportunity to shower lol!Later i tried bribing him with sweets but those too ended up on the floor since he was still pissed :)
So finally time to leave and i ran into our family friend who asked if we could 'step kando' since he had a question to ask me.we go outside and the first thing he says is ''tell me your secret'',my secret?''yeah how can i loose weight''.wooohoooo,i just started laughing...''come on,tell me how you did it,were friends arent we?and friends share secrets,right?'',how i did what??.i seriously had no idea what he was talking about and he told me how he'd tried everything from exercise to eating healthy but it wasnt working for him.Who knew men have issues with weight??Like seriously?I hardly ever notice any changes and when it happens all i do is go out and get better fitting clothes and move on with my life.Ok i have to admit the guys at the regular shops i visit give me a funny look on the occassions ive asked for a bigger size and that last time when i asked for a small size the chics gave me that head to toe look and said 'hatunanga hizo juu ni hard tena kuget' lol.Anyway,i told him i dont have a secret since am the same as ive always been and he wasnt satisfied so he started picking my brain trying to figure out what id done different.The only viable reason could be that my allergies had been acting up for a while so maybe being sick...forget it!he doesnt have allergies so that couldnt possibly work for him.which reminds me,if self diagnosis could be used to satisfy medical experience,the last six months would have been enough for me to qualify as a doctor.i went to the school clinic so often i practically knew what type of medicine theyd give for coughs,sneezing,soar throats etc.If only we could go back to the days of apprenticeship id now be rocking a white lab coat and a stethoscope *sigh*
I get to town and dont know whether to get a phone with a good camera,still camera or video.Walked around for some hours and finally saw her,so pretty,so shiny and i knew i had to bring her home.who in their right mind could walk away from a 13.6 megapixel slim body piece of metal,plastic and glass.Time to go to the banker.I knew i was in for a finance management talk and possibly a security check cos for close to ten years i always withdrew on certain dates mainly in June but the last two weeks there's been way too many emergencies.I tried to rush cos it was almost closing time but just then as i walk past reinsurance what do i see...the perfect pair of shoes on the display and just had to walk in.Thats one adiction ive been battling this year and i blame it on mum for always complaining i didnt have proper shoes,my cousin for sending me shoes and some of my friends who said this year am not allowed to go anywhere with them if i keep wearing sports shoes.what's so wrong about sports shoes,it's all about comfort right?WRONG!!I grab those and have to almost run to beat the clock and get there just as the askari is about to lock the door and he waves his rungu as i dash in,phewks!!As predicted the teller dude asked about the withdrawals just to be sure my card hadnt been stolen.What i hate about co-op @ bomblast place is lack of privacy,everyone standing behind you hears what you shout through the glass and they dont even try to pretend they aint heard you!!Past the 21 Qs i finally went back for the camera and got home feeling like id developed flu like symptoms and at some point i thought id pass out.Atleast i know it aint swine flu since i didnt come across any flying pigs nor did i pass through a potential aPORKalypse zone.
Just like in the morning,my nephew was back in my room this time with a glass...if i wanted to be forgiven i had to hook him up with some sprite.He seems to havd gotten addicted to it and id like to say it aint even the least bit my fault but damn he even knows where i keep my ''stash'' :))
And so my 27 hr day continues but ive got to ask,what can the askari really do with a rungu?
Glad i didnt faint cos today i saw a man having a fit on the ground and all people could do was stare and ask whether he was dying :(.In this city if you're dressed 'normal' or look like you aint well off people just walk past and if you look like you're loaded you'll get lotsa people helping out though quite a good number will be helping themselves by emptying your pocket in the name of being good samaritans

perhaps the most fair and frank interview of him and Oprah Winfrey. Do remember his Music and imagine if possible yourself in his shoes.
