SAUTE potatoes

Sweet And Unusually Tasty English potatoes

Been a year and two months since I last blogged. My blog mojo death began as soon as I landed at JKIA from Jozi and rediscovered why I love Nairobi regardless.

I have peculiar eating habits. I had spaghetti for breakfast, a sumptuous Ugali lunch and I've just finished consuming some delicious chicken kienyeji with Saute(d) potatoes. Where I got the will and energy to cook at this ungodly hour I'd be at pains to explain...

Anyway, I wonder why I decided to blog today? Lets see:
  • Could be that my company has landed its biggest contract to date and I'm over the moon... OR
  • Maybe its this half-Rwandese gal that's got me at sixes and sevens about what I feel
Either way, I feel I'm at crossroads and need an avenue to vent/release/talk to myself.

A lot has happened since I got back in 2006:
  • I finally got over my galfriend of 5 years (fiance of the last of those years). We are now friends. Took me a year of avoiding her to get there but gladly that worked out swell.
  • Met a one-in-a-lifetime type of gal. Totally messed up on that one and still trying to mend fences enough to be friends. She's one of those keepers even if it's just simply as friends.
  • Got hired in one of those blue-chip companies as part of senior management. Got fired soon thereafter for being "a genius that refused to be tamed" KM, 2009.
  • Back in school doing my MBA. Love it, love it, love it!!! A year and a half down the line and the effects are amazing. And the contracts I've been able to land, eish!!!
  • Then there's my half-Rwandese gal. A bit too early to make a call on that one but boy, oh boy, Im in for an interesting ride. Lets see how that goes.
Anyway, let me organize my thoughts and address the above (and much more) as a series of posts. Lets hope the mojo survives long enough for me to do exactly that.

congratulations on the contracts and the better half. Twitter is really good for filling the blanks when there's no mojo for a full blog post
