Tower Of Babel

Bwoy, tings pretty quiet with many of the blogs that I frequent. I guess jus like when I was in foreign recently and posts from me were few, many others on holiday themselves…or jus nuh have nutten much fe chat ’bout.

A new yardie blogger found my site and left a comment. So, as blog etiquette goes (mi Modda, God rest her soul, did teach me manners) I checked his site and did the same. Welcome Calijamaican. I wouldn’t mind hitting California next year….have never been to the east west coast of the US….will see. Of course y’all feel free to go check out the yute also.

I still tiyad nuh rass…..but managed to do what I had to at work yesterday. I had a meeting that I was invited to at Terra Nova last nite….was told by the drug company that was hosting it that they would be serving cocktails. OK, so mustn’t walk wid mi long belly! Reach home at about 6, dem seh dem starting at 6:30. OK, I going reach a bit late…man need to relax likkle bit….. shuck off working clothes, turn on the fan and get some cool breeze…it did well hot and humid yesterday! Before I know it, I doze off. But am awakened maybe ten minutes later by the phone….turns out is wrong numba! Arite….that is my cue to go hold a fresh and don some respectable looking garb. Leave the yard at 6:45. Reach and find the meeting. Well, turns out they are late in starting as well….some technical fart with the laptop…..(seems these things always happen when people have talks to give at meetings eh?) Eventually, they solve the problem. Next ting…the mic also a gwaan wid friggery! At last they get underway. Well, I missed cocktails….but…not a prob still. Turns out is a dinner meeting to rahtid! Well, man did well raw, so when I see dem a rope een the soup I man smile and kill it quick. Salad then comes followed by main course…..chicken, fish, plantain and steamed vegetables. Not bad. Dessert wasn’t shocking, but when you hungry, you nyam almost anyting…nuh true? Respec to the drug company for dinner…the meeting was informative as well.

Reach home at about 10:30 and headed straight to bed…surfed the TV for a few minutes before conking out. Sleep was sweet. Only thing I remember was that I was in the middle of a dream with some sweet looking woman who I don’t recognize….just about getting ready to ‘know’ (in the Biblical sense) her…and am awakened by the sound of a neighbour’s lawnmower powering up at 6 AM! Of course me cuss some dutty claat unda mi breath….interrupt man sleep and salt up the biziniz in de dream to rahtid! Anyway, perhaps mi body telling me that I need to sleep more…and that maybe I in need of some TLC….so Friday night cyaan come fast enuff……need to go ’street’. That should be Ok, as it seems we will not be having to watch out for any rahtid hurricane this weekend….thanks to the Almighty!

Scanned the Gleaner this morning, but nutten there grabbed me to post. Anyhow, I thought I had nutten to post about, but gwaan hold dis for the time nuh. Tek it easy.
