The rise and fall of Thabo Mbeki

curiosity (almost) killed the cameraman

What I want to know when I look at this clip is: what the hell was he doing out of his vehicle?!? By the way, people I know know this camera crew, and, unlike how it appears, these are completely wild lions, not rehabilitated, half-tame ones!

out of the frying pan, into the ... fridge?

After my last post about "sizzling" burn out, I thought it best to let you know that I am post-ten day holiday, and much more relaxed.

I am back at work, but with a new resolution. Obviously, there will always be stress and deadlines, but I have decided to put an end to staying late unless when necessary. I am a hard worker, and am more than happy to stay late to get a job done, but over the weeks my leaving time was creeping later and later.

I need my downtime! but when I last blogged I had got into the habit of hanging out at work, frantically cramming in more stuff, sometimes for an hour and a half after when I should have left - not to meet an urgent deadline, but because ... um... well that's my point; just because.

Anyway, I am trying to find the time to blog seriously, but I also dont hold out much hope. It'll probably stay this erratic, so until next time...

P.S. the wedding was wonderful! and beautiful! and Oxford was exactly the break I needed. If you know me well enough to be a facebook friend, the pics are up there.
