LAGOS LIFE OR HARSH LIFE?

Nigeria 8:35 pm
...At home no power the whole day...you curse under your breath when you remember that you are out of diesel to run your Gen set
You remember the long queue at the filling station and how long it took you to get gas for your car....you wonder why you have to hustle for something that is supposed to abundant in your country ( hustle for basic things like food, water, power etc)
You go to an eatry to cool off and end up paying so much to get a decent meal and what happens?....you are served stale meals!
You don't complain you eat it anyway....to make matters worse the waiter/waitress over charges you sometimes they tell you they don't have change..but it's okay it's just 100 naira..as a matter of fact these people do it as if it were their right..
After all you are a big girl
You fall sick from eating that trash( you should have just gone to a buka at least the food is always fresh) ...the eatry makes money off you , the gas station makes money off you, you spend extra money treating yourself and you come back home to a house with no power and say " it is well"
No it's not....SPEAK UP!

Which are you? The one who has a variety of useless watches that are now makeshift bracelets or the one who would dutifully take them for repairs when the battery is flat. If you ask where I belong, I'd say with those who have turned their wristwatches into some sort of 'Wrist ornament'. I don't even own a clock, the time doesn't even read correctly in my car! The only accurate time would be the one found on my phone - that's it! Is there something wrong with us? Why is it that almost everyone tells time using their phones, is technology the problem? I remember those good old days... way before mobile phones and way before the computers, when our wristwatches/clocks were the only alternatives, if you didn't have one, you were screwed! I had a wall clock, I panicked if something ever happened to it... it was like living in another reality; where you were stuck in your world and the rest of humanity were in another, you felt completely cut off m...

What is your body count?

That was the question I was asked today...The evening was going quite well for me until it went from "This has gotta be the best night ever" to "Oh no he didn't!". My facial expression changed in that instant from a smile to outrage: it became glaring that this question was off-limits. I moved around uneasily in my seat; I began thinking about how best to address the situation without coming off as the 'Crazy b***h!' Peter was a good friend, and oftentimes we would discuss random topics of interest and argue endlessly- they were resolved amicably each time but this one wasn't one of those. I honestly don't know how we went from discussing random things to, "So, do you mind sharing how many people you have had sexual encounters with?"
