In Other News – 10 November 2016

Cute kitten

Yesterday was one hell of a day. After the US election in the morning, I headed out to the licencing department to renew my drivers card. After around four years of admin and queues, I finally got my stuff done, left, and headed over to a Wookiee friend for some sweet furry hugs (this was a highlight, not a bad thing).

The real drama kicked off on my drive home a few hours later, when the heavens decided to open up. I survived the horrible downfall, only to come home to no power, and an open window in my bedroom – my one screen and keyboard was covered with rain! To make matters worse, water was pouring in through the roof straight into the lounge, so I had to climb the roof, mid-storm, to unblock the gutters.

Hey, I’m alive at least! I can’t wait for the weekend to start tomorrow though. All I need in my life right now is some soothing game therapy. Thankfully, my electronics all work, and no real damage was done. Also, I wasn’t stuck on the highway – thank goodness!

Right, now that my rant is out of the way…

  1. 1. He was smart and went after the blue collar workers, wouldn’t have voted for him, but kudos.
    2. Renewed my drivers earlier this year, was there 40 min before they opened and time after they opened till I was done was 5 min.
    3. Thank whomever I left Sandton just before the storm

    That is all

          I don’t know about you, but we’ve got lovely weather here at the moment. Lovely beach weather, in fact.

          You plan to head to the beach later for sundowners?

            In all honesty, I’d rather go to the very far north, have a night lasting three days every year and glorious cold snow in the winter.

            Aren’t you already in the very far north? #northofthemountains
