Woke up. Read my devotional book and prayed. The topic
was 'The Unbroken Christian'. Memory verse was Psalm 138:6. Laid on my bed for
a while thinking. Should I go to the office first before going to The Palms
regarding my phone issue or should I go straight to The Palms? My brother had
already sent me a text this morning which I almost replied. Technically my
phone is still missing so replying his text means I have found my phone though
he may not catch on to that. I didn’t reply. I went to work then went to Saka
Tinubu looking for casing for my old phone. Mehn it was like looking for a
politician that has never lied. You won’t find any. Exactly my point, I dint
find any case anywhere. Howcome it’s this scarce? I decided to get a new phone after
all from Slot. I bought a nokia dual sim phone.
I strolled over to mtn office to do sim swap. I was
shocked to the molecular level of my essence when the lady said my mtn line has
not been registered. I’m like WTF??!!! Is she nuts or made out of nuts? Im damn
certain like Im damn certain of my gender that I have registered. I have even
sent 'REG' to 789 to verify. And they replied with confirmatory message that my
line has been successfully registered. Anyway I registered again and did sim
swap then left mtn office for our office.
Back in the office, it was full house. Ugo, Ifeanyi and
Chris were there. Ugo and Ifeanyi were seriously deliberating on share
percentage. Its amazing that every time such discussion is going on, it always
includes two of them and no one gives a rat's ass about my own share. I thought
we are in this together. Let just let it slide today. I will ask Ugo later if I’m
labouring in vain. Sound of increasing salary is good but also having miniscule
stake is even better. And I think I deserve it after all I’m playing my part
well.
The day dragged by and we closed shop. I went home to the humdrum
of my crowded room. Well I slept. God gave me sleep.

I often ask myself since I have faith of owning my own car this year, as a matter my choice car is now my darling desktop wallpaper on my laptop, is it my current job that will give me the money to buy that car? Which is possible. But I feel like there is something greater I should do to facilitate the process or make it a reality. Afterwards I prayed. I took my shower.
I felt good reading that devotional and felt even much better after praying. I was torn between going to work and staying at home. I was
like Jesus when he prayed, ''Oh my father, if it be possible, let this cup pass
from me...'' if it be possible let the cup of going to work today pass from me.
I dint even have or know what to wear, I'm yet to wash my clothes. My phone
battery was down and PHCN was out. I gave my neighbour's house-help my phone to
charge for me. She said they were about to turn off their generator and I was
like let plug it even if it’s for 1 minute.
I should've just listened to her if I knew I would regret later. Then it happened. They left to God-knows-where with my phone locked in their house. What!! She even turned my phone on, what was she looking for? Of course she couldn't go past the security code. The phone was useless to her but it now transformed to vault for missed calls and messages. I was fuming. She should've given me the phone before leaving.

I was fuming. She should've given me the phone before leaving.
My head was aching. The catarrh mucus wasn’t as red as
yesterday. I managed to find my way to the office. I decided to be a little mischievous
when asked about my phone because as sure as the sky is up, my boss must've tried
to reach me severally. I decided my response to why I was phone silent will be
that my phone is missing. Chuks replied the letter I sent requesting for
financial assistance, well the result was negative. Not really surprising to
me. At least I have gotten that out of the way. I can now focus on other
things.
Later in the day my boss came back to the office from his
myriads of meetings and complained and inquired why I dint pick any of his
calls and dint reply any of his text messages. That was when it dawned on me
that the house-help switched my phone on. I’m so cocksure that I gave her a
switched off phone. I started imagining the number of missed calls I will get and
how angry it will make some people when their calls are supposedly ignored by
me. I told my boss that I don’t know where the phone was as planned. He was
like
''dude
you can’t afford to lose your phone now. Buy a new one immediately, I don’t
care how you do it. You don’t know how much I depend on you. I was going mad
when I couldn't reach you today. We are on the verge of making money. We are on
edge of the mountain about to jump off into money. Once that happens, I will
increase your salary by 300+% instantly. I will relocate you from that
environment to a better one where you won’t be falling sick often. We will just
take care of everybody's pressing needs.''
And Im like really? I know Im his babysitter, oh please
tell me something that I dont know. He asked if N4,000 can get a new phone of
the lowest tech ever provided one can send/receive calls/texts with it. He went
ahead to give me the money plus extra for transportation and line retrieval.
Now I’m cracking my brain on how not to spend this money on a new phone (makes
evil face). I have a phone that I don’t use cuz the case is bad. All I have to
do is get a new case for the old phone chikena! Ooh, I’m so smart, won’t you
agree? At least this be opportunity I've been looking for to repair my old
phone.
I left work feeling a bit feverish. I dint take complete
dosage of my drugs though I doubt the efficacy of vitamin C tablets, blood
capsule and cough syrup on my cough, catarrh, headache and dizzy spells. I got
home in one normally functioning piece after spending some time with Gabriel,
Aver, Blessing and Doctor. The house-help brought my with a guilt look on her
face. It was as if he saw me coming from a mile away as
I approached their door she came out with the phone in hand. I gave her pieces of my mind. I let her I was angry. And why did she turn my phone on? She apologized. She wasn’t happy though I can tell by her reaction. She must be feeling like 'Is this the motherf**king thanks I get for helping you charge your phone?' I wanted to thank her and scold her but I ended up only scolding her. I wonder how she will react the next time I ask her to help me charge my phone. I got inside the house, ate rice and zzzzzzz.

Health Issue: Red Mucus (Phlegm) Discharge A Symptom Of Tuberculosis?
Woke up. If I didn't wake up I wont be writing this, right? Should I stop starting my daily dairy with 'woke up'? I will think about it. But seriously that's the first thing I do every morning I'm alive. My catarrh booked a long early appointment with the toilet. Little did I know what the deal was. I blew my nose several times in the toilet and the mucus kept pouring but it had this frightening red colour.
I noticed the red mucus discharge yesterday. I didn't do anything about it, I left it in the limbo of inconsequential. Yesterday it was just the first mucus that came out my nose that had the red colour, the rest had the normal milk colour. I was wondering could it be dust or is it blood. I concluded it was the dust because this wasn't the first time I experienced such thing. Yesterday stroll with Suggy was a strong suspect regarding the dust. But today's red mucus is too suspicious to be left in the inconsequential thought zone that it's dust.

Tuberculosis Test
Whats more, when I
blow my nose its like I can feel my brain coming out of my nose. This muddles
my thought process. The dull pain makes me dizzy for a moment and I can feel it
throbbing across my skull. I decided to visit the hospital. I sent my boss and
brother a text that I wont come to the office instead the doctor will be prodding me today. He replied that I should do tuberculosis test. Is this the symptom of tuberculosis? Now he got me worried. Funny he didn't ask me to do HIV
test, because it seems to be the only test that spews out of his mouth anything I
said I'm going to the hospital.
Do I look like I've bought HIV ticket and now waiting for take off? Does my lifestyle even give an iota of hint like that? Shoo!! I went to the hospital, did a wbc test, whatever that means. I will Google it. Or I can just ask the doctor lol. I forgot to ask the doctor. They took my blood sample twice. Said the first wasn't enough. Hope these guys are not vampires. Please leave some blood for my heart to play with. I kinda like the chic that sucked my blood the second time. She's a tall cute and dark skinned beauty. For some reason I didn't suck out her name and number. The test said it was advanced ordinary cough.
Good Doctor/Hospital Means Good Money
I went back to the office that late afternoon. Everybody were or at least acted very concerned about my health. At the end of the day they advised I see a good doctor or go to a good hospital. You know good doctor/hospital in Victoria Island Lagos means good money. Did anybody give me good money for a good doctor/hospital, hell no! I don't blame them though, times are hard.

I went home feeling better than I felt leaving home in the morning.
Woke up. I lazed about in the house before going to church.
Everybody went to church today. I went to Redeem my church, Ibe went to The
Dome in Lekki and his wife Amara went to a different one. We all went to
worship God almighty, same destination different paths. For some reason I was
so sleepy in church unlike me. Does it mean my body is yet to make a full
recovery from the sleep I denied it yesterday after the Saturday run in the
morning? Ok body I will make it up to you somehow, just don’t embarrass me
going to sleep without my authorization. We had a church youth meeting after
service. We were only able to fix a date for youth fellowship meetings where we
can now tackle matters at hand like electing new exco, financing the viewing
center, etc.

I got home and went catatonic in land of the awake as
soon as my back touched the bed. The only thing I was able to remove was my
palm slippers plus my watch. I wore one hausa attire, dont know the name but
its one of those annoyingly overflowing attire, lol. Yep I wore it. I slept
still wearing it. I had a real good sleep.

Don’t know if it was a text from Suggy asking for the
address to my place that woke me. Is it telepathy or premonition because my phone
was on silent mode. I checked the time, it was about 45 seconds earlier. I
replied immediately. Later she arrived. I went out to buy her some refreshments
and she came with me. By the time we came back, Ibe and his wife were preparing
to leave to give us some space. By the way Suggy is just name pet I call her
and she calls me the same thing. We worked together at my former company Vectis
before the company shut down. That was when we developed a close friendship. We
had a good time catching up.

She came with extra luggage. She came with her laptop for
a PowerPoint lesson. Gladly, I taught her a few things about PowerPoint. We
talked about alota stuff. She left around 6:00pm. We strolled from my place to
the bus stop. I was wary of the dust cuz of my catarrh but I just left it in
the hands of the universe to keep me safe. We kept in touch via text messages
until she was home safely.

Woke up early cuz I gotta run today. I made it Lekki on
time but we started the run late. Today we did '15km' not the usual 10km. Im
not really sure I did the full 15km cuz of the route I took. Today's running
wasnt so good for me. First my stomach ached like mad just after I started. I
had to endure the pain till it stopped. Next I felt so weak. I had to stop to
reenergize, something I have never done before. Anyway I still did the run and
finished gallantly.

But afterwards I was so tired. I was supposed to see Enque today at Ozone, mehn can I make it in this state? Who knows! We already spoke and she wasn’t taking any rain check as usual so Im not about to do same either. Don’t even know what to wear. Well Imma rock my blue jean shirt and black jean trouser but mehn its freaking hot to dress like. Unfortunately I dont have a choice. I relaxed a bit at Lekki before heading. I was extremely tired.

Got home showered and headed out. When I got home though,
the room was smelling like filth and my door was locked from inside by Ibe or
his wife, how come? They always accused their last daughter Praise of always
locking the door, Praise is no longer here. Did Praise come from the east to
lock the door? Traffic wasnt much but the sweat was expected. Finally I made it
to Ozone at e-Center Yaba. As expected, Enque is yet to arrive. She hates to
wait for someone at places like this. She said she hates to wait around like
she has no job. But its perfectly ok for me to wait around like I had no job
now. I waited some more before she showed up.
Meanwhile I feel so sleepy and tired. We chilled at chicken republic and chatted about this and that. It was really nice to see her. Cough catarrh still worrying though it allowed me to enjoy myself with Enque. Now its time for us to head home. I took Obalende bus from Yaba, she took the bus going her way. We ran into this terrible traffic along Lekki Epe expressway from second roundabouts. We crawled till we got Nicon Town estate when the road freed up. Though I slept through most of the way just to reduce the agonizing impact of the traffic, I still feel sleepy. I feel like Im drunk. I was only able to sleep in the night.

Woke up early cuz I gotta run today. I made it Lekki on
time but we started the run late. Today we did '15km' not the usual 10km. Im
not really sure I did the full 15km cuz of the route I took. Today's running
wasnt so good for me. First my stomach ached like mad just after I started. I
had to endure the pain till it stopped. Next I felt so weak. I had to stop to
reenergize, something I have never done before. Anyway I still did the run and
finished gallantly.

I woke up early. That was a fake wake up because I drifted off
and woke up late. My boss sent a text message at 8:24am that I should be very
early in office. I didn't even see the text till after 9:00am when I hopped out
of the bathroom. What excuse am I going to give him today. Yet again I didn't
read Open Heavens Devotional this morning. I hit the road and noticed an unusual traffic,
bingo! That's my excuse! Quickly I sent him a text about the bad traffic and
that it might be a road accident. It actually turned out to be a road accident
involving a danfo bus and a space wagon. The danfo bus drivers are as reckless
as the okada (commercial motorcycles) friends. The two cars looked pretty
banged up. I have no idea regarding casualties.

Finally
I made it to the office.
First to come, I thought my boss would already be there. Didn’t do much
in the
office. I downloaded this track ''Ome Nwanne'' by Kelly Handsome and I
have
been feeling the song die! It’s putting me deep in the igbo mood, if you
know
what I mean. Its a high-life song with lyrics mostly in igbo I left for
Caxton-Martins office to pick up company incorporation documents for
Ben.
Traffic was light on my way going but it was a different a story coming
back. It felt like eternity sitting in the bus for a long time under the
hot sun. It was like torture. Its always like torture especially when
its a commercial bus with no air-conditioner in it.
Ibe's wife Amara came back this evening. I wasn't
expecting her. As I drew closer to my door I heard her voice as she chatted
away. The second half of the duo chatterbox is back, now my ears should be
wearing the most tech and efficient earmuffs.
Now it’s your turn; Please feel free to share and add
your comments, your feedback and comments are always appreciated.

Woke up early. My mind woke much earlier than my body.
They had to come to a hard bargained agreement for me to finally get out the
bed. I wish today was a weekend or public holiday because I felt so weak. I wanted
to sleep some more to satisfy my body. I wanted to rest some more to rejuvenate
my body. But my mind gotta drag me to work. Today should've been the first day
of reading my newly bought Open Heavens Devotional, well for some reason I dint
read it today. I should've taken it to the office. Oh no not again! That
bastard bout of cough attacked me again on my way to the office. As usual
there's a pretty chic on my left but not directly next to me. This cough just
likes embarrassing me doesn’t it? I was admiring her and I guess she was doing
the same thing because or eyes locked several times. It hadn't even crossed my mind that it is valentine's day.
The sky looks dull like it’s about to rain. I love this
weather. Cool and calm, that’s my nature. It’s just the weather that is serene
which is a sharp contrast from the reality of daily Lagos street activities. The
hustle and bustle of chaotic Lagos is peaking. What’s more? The sun has begun
piercing the dark cloak of cloud that looked like make up on the face of the
sky to sneak a scorching peek to earth and its dwellers. The cloudy sky fought
back and ushered in a mild shower of rain. Yeah the weather is even cooler now,
I like it. The thunderstorm that followed was definitely on another level. I
mean the deaf certainly must've heard it. A heavy rain fell after the
thunderstorm. It would seem that the initial light shower was just a warm up
for the main event.
Back to office matter, my boss and his partners are
working on a deal that’s nearing closure, the smell of the money is suddenly
getting strong and possibility of closing the deal is high. The Oliver Twist
nature of partners is beginning to seep to the surface regarding the sharing
formula of the proceeds. So my boss and had a marathon session devising a
rational and acceptable sharing formula for the partners. Well we did come up
with a good formula, the bad thing is Im not on it. Oh well Im not a partner.
The generator serving the office has been begging for replacement but like
typical Nigerians, the management of
the office complex has been managing
it. If the generator is not over heating, it’s another issue. Other times the
gen will run till they run out of diesel. Anyway I started work on my 10 pager
article on FDI. It’s a start.

I had very pleasant surprise today. My babe that
relocated to the eastern part of Nigeria visited me. I thought she was messing
with me when she said was around. What a pleasant surprise! We had brief
blissful time together before she left. She really looked good hmm! She gave me
some kinda visual orgasm. Its been long since I saw her. I have no idea why her
visit to Lagos coincided with February 14 but definitely it wasnt solely to see
me. It was already 5:00pm. Earlier the girl I started seeing recently had
invited me to a valentine event she was invited to holding at Scintilla Club
and organized by a certain church. She said I will take her out after the
event. I said I cant do both. To be precise I said in igbo '' Agaghi m aga ihe
nke elu igwe, bia gaa ihe nke uwa'' Meaning I cant attend heavenly stuff and
also indulge in a worldly stuff afterwards. So I effectively avoided the
scintilla club event.
By the time she came from Scintilla Club it was around 9:40pm.
She insisted I take her out. I set my mind on taking to Picadilly Suites but I
asked her to choose a venue and she chose Picadilly as I expected. There was a
life band to my greatest surprise Victor Ayara of Silverbird Television that
normally presents Head2Head was onstage performing. He is good. He is
versatile. His reggae performance was awesome. He also did hilife and it was
banging. He did other genre too. He even tried a little freestyle and comedy.
We had drinks and asuu. It was a very beautiful night. Im glad we went. We went
home around 3:00am. Normally the night would've ended with some passionate love
making but my friend was at my place and I can’t just displace him to wander in
that early morning so I can get my freak on. But If he volunteered to do it
then its fine by me lol.

Ok here comes my annoying cough. Why now in the middle of this hot morning traffic? Lord why me? There's this chick to my left in the bus whom I complimented on her fair lovely skin now she was the person sympathizing with me. I was utilizing my herculean power to suppress the cough. If only she knew what I was going through. Its funny how the stress/pressure was leaving weird tale tell sign on my face. My left eye was shedding tears non stop while my right was completely normal. Guess what, I dint have any handky on me. My nose slowly started to trickle goo. And my stomach quivering occasionally as it intercepts the cough. It was like numerous bombs exploding in my stomach at different sites. Thank God my stomach didn't rip open spilling my guts just because I was trying to be Clark Kent beside a chic.
Luckily I made it out of that fix without imploding. But seriously this cough is becoming a pain in the rear end of my body. The last time I had a cough like this, the medical officer advised me to avoid dust, smoke, polluted air, etc. Well how can I avoid it? Its the nature of the environment I live in. Lack of power supply forces people to run their army of generators that produce smokes/fumes. The road to my street is untarred, with no rains, its very dusty as it is always busy. You can imagine an MNC wanted to rehabilitate the road but the baale of the area wanted a kickback, this angered the multi-national company.
By the time I got to the office the meeting had already begun, it made me look unserious. What's done is done I guess. The day went normally afterwards. There's a letter I've been dreading to write but I just gotta write it. The longer I delay the harder and more messy it gets. I'm sure you know that kinda situation. I want to tell my cousin who was sponsoring my MBA program at UNILAG that I flunked one course and that's why I'm not graduating this year. Well that's not the worst part though. The worst part is I gotta pay extra fees. Knowing this guy can be really nice and kind if he wants to, he can also be your worst nightmare if wants to.
I still haven't done the 10 pager summary of my project that my supervisor asked me to do. Damn! I got some work to do. In the bid to get spiritual this year, I decided to buy Open Heaven, a christian morning devotional book. Well since I made that decision, the book I would say went into hiding. I haven't seen it anywhere. Luckily, I saw it today at Prince Ebeano Supermarket and I bought it for N980. Sometime in the afternoon I went to Germaine Auto to make an enquiry.

I met one thick dark African sister in bus. She munched away at a digestive biscuits with dedicated commitment. I watched her with amusement and I got her talking with me. We had cool chat till I got off the bus. But not without getting her number. She studied music and teaches music. I find that superb. A square peg in a square hole. She can play sax and piano. I toyed with the idea of learning an instrument from her and she was like for the right money, instrument and time she will teach me. Oh yeah the number she gave me is yet to ring, should I be worried. It took a while but it finally rang the next day.

It baffles me how they feel so comfortable with such filth, but then thats just a tiny tip of the iceberg of their lifestyle that nauseate me.

I'm going to see Big BEN of Business Administration Department of UNILAG. He is indeed big but my God is BIGGER. I stumbled unto my unorganized project supervisor to my surprise he remembered me. This man is yet to submit my project to MBA school since last year. To my greatest surprise he asked me to write a 10 page article on FDI (which my project centered on) to be put in one of the journal in school. Seriously I didn't come here for this. I let him know he was to submitt by project to MBA school Yaba, then he took me to his office. There it was, lying on his table in the company of the mammoth of stationaries, books, projects, articles journals, etc in a disorganized manner was my project. Thank God he hasn't lost it this time! He lost my project before. I used that opportunity to grab my own copy of the project. One less thing to worry about.
The wait for Big Ben was very tiring. I have been in his reception since 1:36 pm. If I still don't see him by 4:00 pm, I'm going home. And I didn't. And so I did. We will see another day Ben. I spent the next 1 hour 45 minutes in traffic. I slept most of the way, that's my only ready to reduce the anxiety and frustration of spending much tiring precious time in traffic. Made a quick dash to Shoprite by order of my stomach before heading back to the office in Lekki phase 1.

Somehow I felt I achieved something though it wasn't what I really went for but its still important. Don't wanna doubt myself or God because I dint meet who I set to see. My resolve is strong. My faith is unshakable. All I need is another opportunity to meet two men this time. And this time I wont wait long hours in vain.

I didn't pray. I haven't had enough sleep but I couldn't sleep again with all shuffling and beehive activities of packing they put up. Finally they left few minutes after five. Ibe went with them of course to make sure everything went smoothly. There I was in my room, all alone.

For the first time in what seemed ages I felt a sense of calm and peace. How I wish they've all left for good. I will breathe fresh air again. I had to do immediate clean up. I started with the irritating candle wax they leave around everywhere like its an awesome house decoration. It baffles me how they feel so comfortable with such filth, but then thats just a tiny tip of the iceberg of their lifestyle that nauseate me.

Went to Caesar's place after service. Caesar is a good friend of mine. He is a voracious reader. He reads more of thought provoking books, controversies, etc and less of novels. In short there is so much to this guy. Stayed a while then went back home. I haven't eaten yet. I'm very hungry. I took a nap got woken by a call.
Oh yeah its 3:00 pm, first meal of the day just got served, white rice and peppery stew. I'm thankful for the meal. Actually that's why I went home from Czr's place though they are preparing food there too.
Went back to Czr's place 4:30 pm so we can go play football. Don't get it pleasantly mixed, we weren't on the team of Super Eagles that was billed to play Burkina Faso in the ongoing AFCON 2013.
I'm very health conscious this year. One of my new year resolution is to stay fit and I achieve via Saturday running and Sunday football. Healthy lifestyle is a combination of a healthy diet and a healthy living in terms of exercises. Health benefits of these two is lasting.

The super eagles later went on to beat Burkina Faso and win the championship. Bummer I dint even watch the match. The shout of celebration on the streets when we won was indeed deafening. PHCN that is known for being effective in not supplying power was ineffective today, as they supplied power before during and after the match. I've always been proud of my green white green despite all the shortcomings.

This people that held my personal space hostage didn't quite behave like there was food in the house. Neither did I bother to check. Since my kitchen was taken over, I don't know my right or left in there anymore. I came back to the house and caught them eating their usual indomie noddles and I went out again. I don't like indomie noddles, I prefer chiki-chiki noddles. Went to Cherrie's place around 4:18 pm to have a descent peaceful nap because that is an impossibility at my place.

It was hot but thanks to the universe PHCN brought light so I just relaxed on the bed in her absence till around 5:30 pm. And the mothership of disappointment is, Suggy didn't visit as planned. I'm yet to call to find out why since I dint get any call. Why would she do this? I looked so much towards seeing her today. I called all her numbers around 8:38 pm and they were switched off, what could this mean? Its so frustrating. I watched a couple more episodes of bleach, I finished season 9.
