The whole of last week, I was so busy with work and other stuff (excuses, excuses) that I did not have time to shave.
I started to look like a Neanderthal man – unshaven and the moustache & beard had grown like a wild bush. I started to look sick, so much so some of colleagues started asking me whether I was having a problem or was having a fever. I entered the lift with a senior colleague of mine last week and I noticed she was staring at me and before she could open her mouth, I said “Had no time to shave”. She looked a bit shocked but replied “I was about to ask you on that”. I said to myself “Why I am not surprised?” I need to shave before the start of next week.

It was a lazy Sunday afternoon and I was feeling a bit drowsy.
It has been sometime since I had this afternoon naps. Often I get my son to sleep and then spend the rest of the day, playing computer games and watching TV.

You know that somewhere out there, the nation is bleeding money, time and valuable resources just because some people want to be smart and impose their moral values on others. It is made worse when they do it blatantly at the expense of the public – all in the name of “I know what’s best for you”.… [Click to read the rest] “Home Grown Moral Police”

Some things are best not said and done.
Last week was a marathon sort of – I had to attend prayers for 4 consequent days starting from Thursday to Sunday. A prayer in the temple once in a week is fine with me but having to go to the temple for 4 straight days for a bit off the barometer for me.… [Click to read the rest] “4 Days of Praying and 1 Accident”
It has not been a good weekend for me. In fact, it was the worst over the last 1 year – more about it soon (drafting that post up).
Let’s move on to something else shall we? I have been experimenting shots of daily things I use at home and at work but nothing have been perfect (ya, I am blaming it on the camera).… [Click to read the rest] “Red and Blue”
