Just another morning on the bus to the city for work...let me paint a picture.
An enormously tall and weighty lady with a face resulting perhaps from a combination of closely related parents combined with perhaps drinking and smoking since she was 12 (so guessing about 45 years of that), in a summery dress with bare varicose veined legs and thongs, and a tattoo on her arm that said "MONKEY" in crooked block letters - and a couple of faded outlines of vaguely monkey shaped figures...with her husband (who may have also been her son), and their 3 children, the eldest of which might have been 20, with the word "F*CK" engraved neatly in capital block letters on the back of one hand, and angled but precise cut marks around it (to accentuate it maybe)...and the youngest with such small squinty eyes he could barely see, the middle child maybe had a different daddy as he had a slightly more exotic look - all looking like they live on KFC, and the adults also ciggies and alcohol, or maybe for all!?!
It almost makes me want to catch the train again, but that's full of neatly groomed yuppies, worse I think.
If you find this post searching on the title, send me photos or links to photos of the exotic creatures we were on the night! Turned on my camera once there only to find it did not contain it's memory card (still in the computer at home) - noooooooooooo!
From the lady in the fishnet gloves, with bollywood jewels, feathered tiara and boa and sequinned black 'bat' mask!
A few camera phone pics...
Club Rakkasah was so good, I haven't been able to shake the feeling my job is so boring and why haven't I don't something else by now instead of staying there! But then, I am grateful to have a steady income...really...in times like these...
What's the biggest frustration in your life right now?
Incredibly wealthy people sitting on millions of dollars and buying ridiculous luxury items (personal jets, millions in jewellery, etc.) when so many are in need (and no I don't mean me - I only have wants - I have my needs).
Was watching "Meet the Natives" - their view was simple, if you have more, you help those less fortunate.
But then if they didn't maybe some jet companies and luxury items/jewellers would go out of business too, hmmm.
Times like these I wonder why I do what I do currently, although I haven't always, received a bunch of newly rebranded templates for our new company image this week, had to fix many ourselves that had various bugs, and send back to corporate fixed for re-roll out! It was all about the sexy marketing materials of course, which are fab - but the day to day use stuff suffered...oh when did I get so boring?
Bring on Club Rakkasah a la Moulin Rouge this Sunday, yay!
