Today i was back in the mix of looking for an apartment. The last time i did that was about a month ago and i ended up quite disappointed. Its a really daunting task doing this search, especially in a place like Makerere where value of things like apartments is always on a spiral increase every passing day. This time i was told by this "seasoned" broker- as he loves to call himself- that there werent any of my preference. I believed him. Whether he is buying time to see off our one month search contract (for which i paid a handsome amount), i dont know. I only hope not.

This evening, i met a sizeable number of people with whom i had been out of touch for such a long time. What made it a rather "funny occurence" is i seemed to bump into each of these fellas almost in the same intervals of time! If there is any such thing as omens, what would you call this?? Good i guess.

Meanwhile, the room that houses our workstations has not been the place to be, atleast for my other two workmates,the past two days. As for me, i moved out of "The Strong Room" for primarily ventilation reasons because i bet i almost had a black out at some point - this crib can be so hot and uncomfy. But not for my two colleagues, it seemed, until yesterday. A rat apparently met its death in one of the many cabinets in there and you dont need a second prompting to know how it really "felt"..or smelt (to be a little more clear cut!!)

Did i mention this day dragged? Well, it did. But somehow it ended. This week hasnt been bad. Except some rumor from one of my colleagues of some impending lay-off here. We all dread lay- off's, don't we?? I can only imagine what my friends are going through.

Im still at work and i think if ma boss walked right in here.....anyway i wonder what she would make of me. It's high time i saved myself the blushes, incase this really happened. Or you never know it would turn out to be a plus for me...Who doesnt want a "hardworking" fella on their corporate team?? (Stop laughing!)
