Coffee break

So, here I sit, atthe airport, again...
Career-wise busted back to where I was 10 years ago, a sobering thought indeed, its a bugger being good at what one does,eh! Well, retail hasn't done well at all the last couple of years...

Anyway, plenty of time for reflection and as one of those is that I gave up the notion of 'career' years ago (about the time of the first retrenchment) I aint too badly off and as long as I can wield a pencil I'm one up already.

Bring it on...!

Lets Dance

Traditional song/dance routines by the Lean On Dance Theatre
group...Note I said traditional, not a vuvusela in action, despite the
soccer theme of most of the routines...

Frenetic fun and festivity here at O.R.Tambo.

All That Jazz

Nope, I'm not a jazz fan, not at all, however I really appreciate music played for the sheer joy of playing it. Here we are, 8 in the morning, 3 cats laying down a spontanious jam at the Gautrain entrance at O.R.Tambo. No audience, 'cept a few sleepy security gaurds, and these guys are tootling away, smiling, vibing, hell, my morning mood disapates on a melody...

Back downstairs, the sound of the trumpet resonates beautifully through the concourse, usually made nigh unbearable by bloody vuvuselas at the moment.

Cosmic Ydnac

Sitting here at Oliver Tambo Airport- Joburg International to the
locals, not going anywhere, just working. I have time on my hands, my
5530 and a twitchy stylus. Signed up for Posterous and am in the
process of linking it to anything of mine that moves, or rather
nets...

Have also installed a wee sketch ap on the cell which l shall now
attempt to use in some way constructive.

All I need now on this thing is a music composer and I'll be set for
the next 3 months.

What the hell, seems I've spent so much time resding other folks blogs I've forgotten my own - what would my hoard of admiring fan think of me?

I'll use tge excuse of 'been busy', well I have been working (almost) full time since my last, er, blog. Now I'm officially 'full-time' (for the next three months anyway), I suddenly have time on my hands again - theres's a moral in there somewhere...

But! This bit o' free time is tarnished by several handicapping factors: no free coffee - and coffee here at the airport requires a deposit and a bjdget payment plan! No 'puter access to exploit is a tad restrictive - no doodling with drawing or music proggies, one finger, er, stylus typing on the cellie to Twit or tweet or tap out diatribe here...

Groan

Planes come and go, off to the exotic, or banal, ( or in some cases neither!) , this place has a frizzon not unlike a mall at xmas time, that scent of eagerness and expectancy. Annoying at times.

Ah well, so it goes...
