Breakfast
Setup fashionably ornamental
At a breakfast intercontinental
A healthy feast most elemental

Aeroplane Meal
Crammed in multiple layers
Lettuce, cheese among the flavours
With compliments by the sandwich creator

“Reality is wrong. Dreams are for real” Tupac Shakur
Aphorism of the Day
Always…
Dream big, dream all, dream rich
You can be the perfect bitch
Then…
I woke up, put the dog out to pee
And went out for some coffee

Cats, Dogs and Ladies (Caturday 2015-03-05)
Cats, dogs and ladies
All live under the same roof
A gentle mix of meows and woofs
Added with some ifs, buts and maybes
A playful sparring match
For the appetite to catch
Before dinner time calls
And they arrive on all fours
What we can all agree upon
Is a comfortable seat to cuddle on
All gathering into the same spot
All together tight as a knot

Three
Dark clouds low in the sky
Painted with the greyest of die
It is calm in the storm’s eye
Birds into their nests quickly fly
Nothing moves, not even a butterfly
Before the rain pours down from the sky

Two
Scenic view included
The brochure exuded
In an area quite secluded
Selection undisputed
Coordinates in computed
Soon, nothing but solitude

One
On the way to Peru
Or possibly Katmandu
Onto a side track we flew
Soon enough, in a locale new
With a cloudy blue hue
And a gorgeous mountain view

Friday Coffee
One cup of coffee, black
Laced, with a little bit of cognac
Will cure the worst insomniac
Second cup of coffee, black
With a sugary doughnut stacked
Watch out for that heart attack!
The third cup of coffee, black
Now you are on the inside track
From this point on, there is no turning back
The fourth and more cup of coffee, all black
You watched the mirrors crack
As you passed them by with a high heels clack
A few more cups of coffee later, all black
Sitting in a comfy chair, laid back
Fast speed story telling, to your favourite quack
Happy Friday to One and All!

“Work, really? Again? Didn’t I just do that yesterday?
Quote a Week Tuesday: 2016-03-01
Work, what can I say? Can’t live with it, can’t live with it 😉
Getting into a right frame of mind at work, especially when the cups are overflowing every which way and the better part of the day spent either firefighting or tilting against windmills. The one thing you need to remember, well several things actually, but if you are working in a “desk job” as a payed employee, it’s just work and five o’clock will arrive at some point of the day!
Therefore, while getting into that good place in my mind before ending up in a straight jacket, I decided to look into the humorous side of the working life 😛 After all, if a laugh a day keeps the good doctor away, maybe a few more will save the rest of the week!
Here are a few gems I found in order of appearance:
“I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours” Jerome K. Jerome
“Personally, I have nothing against work, particularly when performed, quietly and unobtrusively, by someone else” Barbara Ehrenreich
“When a man tells you he got rich through hard work, ask him whose?” Don Marquis

“A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere” Groucho Marx
The Black Cat
When the black cat
Was crossing the street
She was chasing a rat
Trying to act discreet
Hiding behind a big hat
Awaiting her treat
The grounded bat
Knew he tasted sweet
Stood still on the mat
There was no time to greet
Only time, for combat
After a long while
Both standing still
Trying to act hostile
But without thrill
So instead of the usual
They decided in mutual
This tale’s end
Will the norm bend
Cat and mouse decided
To shake their paws delighted
The lesson of this tale?
Sometimes it’s good to fail
Rantings Of A Third Kind
