A pernicious pursuit

It has finally arrived!

Much has been happening of late. Time is running out for the academix. The baby is crawling zealously and has a mind of her own. She is sweet and strong willed. Basically, she wants what she wants when she wants it. And, hell hath no fury like my little girl scorned!

This is my final week on this away from home audit. It is also the source of my joy. As it turns out, absence makes the heart grow fonder, ache, beat rapidly and causes heart attacks. I can’t wait to get home this weekend. It is going to be lovely to home again, and mistress of all that I survey.

And, in other news, I have yet to pay the board for them to allow me to write their exam in January. I also have yet to pay those who present the course. I have decided that I intend to pass. Now, it’s just the small matter of mastering the content. I may require some assistance. But, all shall be revealed in time, I’m sure.

Have I mentioned that I can’t wait to get out of here?

I had a dream the other night. I had a baby girl. And, she was of a more chocolatey complexion than our current little one. In my dream, we had named her Noko. Apparently, there is no such name, I googled it. (Well, not in Sesotho anyway) Ah well.

Rhetoric rhymes

As predicted by yours truly, the weeks away from home have merged to form some gelatinous oddity of unknown origin. Labour is lame and I miss the offspring and the soul mate.

Some good and bad things have come to pass on this journey. First, the bad. I hit something in the road a couple weeks back, effectively puncturing my gas tank and costing me a boatload of cash I didn’t have in the first place to fix.

The good, I have met a few friendly faces and life is just a succession of hundreds of blessings throwing themselves at me, kamikaze style.

I am eager to reunite with my little family and attend to my household. I’m planning another meal. Hopefully my culinary skills have bettered themselves during my absence.

Another day has come to a close, and I find myself alone.

Just a few more hours and I will no longer be alone; uninspired by my own company.
