Hello peeps,.........OK i have been AWOL, don't crucify me. I will definitely update you on events that have taken place since i last blogged. My supervisor is ok now. One odd thing about his stay at the hospital was that none of his family members showed up throughout the duration; this was really surprising because the man spent a whole week there. Well, it aint my business really but i couldn't help but wonder why no one checked on him: no wife, no kids, no one!!!He is back at work now anyway, so all is well hopefully.........Adia is dating my client o, am amazed at the pace their affair is going, i will just sit it out and let them have fun. while discussing him(my client)with Adia, my ears where filled with......ahhh, you cant just imagine anyway they are both having fun. He approved my MOP and the job went smoothly , apart from the official payment i also received a gift package from him as recognition of a job well done. The gala night of the PR event saw him and Adia clinging together like two lost souls, well that was quite surprising , because i was expecting;well...his wife na! later on Adia told me that his wife resides abroad. He looked dapper in an obviously expensive designer suit while Adia wore a sequined dress that made her look really hot. Everybody who was anybody was at the event. Enough paparazzi.........My neighbor has fully recovered, though she still retains her haggard look. I haven't seen her for some weeks anyway because i have been returning from work late for a while now.Now i have got to go back to work. Catch ya laterTam xoxo

Friday. Learnt super v is still in the clinic. Since it's not too far from the office I intended to check on him during my lunch break.

I walked into the office and the first person I saw was Chi looking fly. We both exchanged pleasantries. Just before lunch break I went over to my supervisors office to drop some documents I had worked on. I was really shocked at his appearance,the man looks tired, i doubt if he sleep the night before. In my mind I felt there was something wrong but didn't ask. How would I have voiced out my concern sef? After all na I'm be Oga na me be wetin?

Monday

........During lunch break Adia called and we had a little chat she told me that my client called her to say he enjoyed having dinner with us. Kai I was shocked o because I didn't even know that they had exchanged numbers and he called her instead of me, mmmmh the power of cleavage.

........surprisingly it was a minimal activity day at the office which is quite odd,being a Monday. Well I used to opportunity to jot down some more ideas that came to me while thinking of the PR package for Mr Attracted to cleavage. My MOP should be ready for him by Friday.

........I seem to be getting used to lonely weekends,though I tried to reach Adia severally to no avail. Sunday evening tired of being on my own ( na who I been dey deceive by the first sentence sef) I went to Claudes. Soon as I walked into the VIP section I spied someone waving at me from afar, it was my new client.

We sat down to discuss business and I gave him a brief analysis of how I intended to sell him to the public, he was quite pleased. Even when I dropped hints about the amount of money involved he didn't bat an eyelid. I love it when I can work with limitless budget,afterwards we had dinner. At that point I took time to really study him, he as kinda swerve,well mannered and good looking too.

While checking him out my phone beeps,it was Adia she claimed to be in front of Claudes place and noticed my car. So I told her am at the VIP. Well of course she immediately breezed in smelling as if she bathed in bottles of expensive perfume. I introduced her to my client and he asked her to join us for dinner which she did.

At this point onwards discussion with my client became irrelevant because he couldn't concentrate considering the fact that his full attention was on Ada's cleavage. Kai Men!

.......Before dinner was over he was already hitting on her big time.

...........New week. Hoping for the best. At about 10am my supervisor walks into my office with a lady in tow, he Introduces her as a new staff in my department. I paste a semi genuine smile on my face and welcomed her. Told to put her through a couple of routine during lunch break. Ok o.
At lunch time I went over to the new lady's cubicle to invite her to lunch so that I could brief her on her work scope. By the way she says her name is Chinelo. At the cafeteria I ordered for pounded yam and vegetable soup while Chi ( that's what am gonna call her o,abeg) ordered for fried rice. So we got talking and she told me she schooled in Abraka and recently got married. She said her husband is a business man who imported different exotic goods and also sold cars. After listening to her ramblings for about twenty minutes I felt it safe for me to conclude that she seemed to be proud of her husband more than herself. I stylishly stirred the conversation back to work and gave her a short breakdown of what her duties should be.  She insisted on paying for both our meals.  We then Walked back to the office in silence.
.........work was ok for the rest of the day. I sent Adia a message. By the time I reached the car park after closing hours I was already quite fagged out. Chi meets up with me before I get to my car and she offered me a ride, hey! Is this girl nuts or something. I became pissed off and I promptly told her that I did not need a ride as I would be going home in my own car. I walked off before she could reply. I angrily drove out of the parking lot with my tires screeching. My anger only began to subside when I started nodding to the music on the car stereo. Mscheeeeew give me a ride indeed.

.............Hallelujah o !   I finally saw Stella today,she and her siblings are fine so far so good. Her mother is also back from the hospital. Though as at the time of my discussion with Stella her mother was on the way to the market,I just couldn't believe it, ha! She's barely out of the hospital and already she is off to the market. It amazes me how the woman gets the strength to do all that she does. The least I expect is for her to be resting for the next few days. I don't think this woman loves her life o.
Anyway I hope there will be mo more brouhaha from their quarters.
..........later in the evening I saw mama Stella coming into the compound she looked very tired,we exchanged greetings and I enquired about her health. She told me that she still felt some pains that was why she went to the market to buy roots so she could prepare agbo ( herbal concoction) for herself.  OMG I just couldn't believe this woman. Chei. Short of words I simply wished her good health and walked off.

........Ping,ping,ping,ping.  Wetin sef? I grabbed the phone, it was Adia. She wanted to have my address so she could come over to my place, I sent it to her and got out of bed. Since I was expecting her I decided to cook rice and vegetable soup.
My dear friend arrived by 11am,she sure looked good. After hugging each other like long lost souls we started talking excitedly at the same time.
........while eating she told me lots of stuff about her stay in Abuja, bottom line was it wasn't all rosy like I thought. She told me of her current lover, a senator, mmmmmh Adia never change at all o! 

Friday


..........Thank God it's Friday. I can't wait to let loose this weekend o. Adia confirmed that she is now in town so definately it's gonna be a good weekend.  At the office my Oga was grouchy as usual, sometimes I feel the man has private issues that affects his work,he looked as if he hadn't slept for days. Anyway he should just leave me today o, I don't want any stress at all, after all no be me cause world war two. 
I hope that I can remember to check on Stella and her siblings today when I get home since I haven't heard from her, their quarters seems to be too quiet lately. Hope no wahala sha. I no fit shout o. 

..........By 2pm I noticed tnat I had begun to sweat profusely, it was odd that the office generator was off. I asked a colleague and was told that the generator packed up and they were trying to fix it, suffice to say that my shirt was beginning to stick to my body. Shuo, wetin be this! Quickly I went to my Oga"s office and requested permission to go and check out the new events place just opened on the Island so I could have the information stored in our office file.   He approved and I ran out ( na till Monday be that, who go die inside heat, abeg!?) 
By Monday am sure the generator would have been fixed, so off I went o the events place, it wasn't bad at all, quite spacious with lots of parking space, I mentally penciled it down as a venue for a press conference for my new client. It will also be useful when we have large crowd events at the office.

.........by 6pm am heading home,am beginning to think it's a bad idea not to have a boyfriend o, abi wetin be this, no weekend groove. Ha! I think i Need a man .........

.........Woke up by 6am. Hope today will be another good day. Am in a good mood so I took my time to dress up and believe me I sure looked good. As I drove to work I secretly prayed that my supervisor will be out of the office today too.
..........got to work early so I decided to chill in the car while listening to news on the radio. Adia then called and promised to hook up with me by weekend or thereabouts if she could get back to Lagos by thursday.  I hope she makes it sha o. Need to hear more gist biko.

........Got home pretty Late last night. Dinner at Claudes with the new client he set me up with was great. After talking with him I decided I was gonna do the job,I sure need the money. Besides one day am gonna set myself up In Business and I need to start building clientele now.  basically all I have to do is to get him some publicity in preparation for his stint in politics. He seems to have limitless budget so I will definitely go all the way with this job. I bet am gonna have fun doing it too.
In my mind I prayed for Claude,he has always been a good friend. Work today was pretty slow,but peaceful though because my supervisor was out of the office for most of the day. After lunch I sent Claude a box of chocolates through the cleaner at the office, just my little way of saying thank you to him.
Soon as it was closing time I ran off before someone invents something new for me to do that will keep me in the office till night fall.
.........for the first time in three weeks I got home not feeling so tired. 

Monday.

...........Got to work quite early and quickly I returned Claudes call. He wanted to notify me of his friends trip which should have cancelled our date, but truth be told ,I had totally forgotten about it. So the new arrangement is to meet at Claudes joint after work today .
I then faced my work for the day. I had gone  a long way in clearing the workload on my table by lunch time, so I decided to head out for a little snack. Unfortunately for me I ran  into Biola, the first thing I noticed was the foundation on her face,it was about an inch thick,the entire makeup seemed to have set into a ferocious mask. She had this green shimmery eye shadow which made me think of the Green Lantern character in the comics that I used to read in primary school. Even her green shirt was a shade too bright,anyway sha, wetin concern me.
After pleasantries were exchanged I asked about her boyfriend out of courtesy and almost bit my tongue in regret as she promptly delved into the jist of their night together. I almost gagged on my potato chips when she got to the part of her jist about their lovemaking ( believe me,I did not want to hear it). She went ahead to tell me how he pumped into her for an hour non stop. Na wa o. No change of style,no foreplay,nothing but ferocious pumping the missionary way........yawn! Am bored already.  According to her the guy is a stud who does it like a steam engine, according to me he is a prick who lacks style in the sexual department,mscheeew! 
........anyway I endured the rest of my lunch and went back to my office.

Sunday


................ I woke up feeling so grouchy,didn't sleep well. It seemed that there was lots of comings and goings within my compound or was I just dreaming. Made coffee and took a scalding sip, Yeepa! My tongue.  Am about to settle down to a nice breakfast of toast and eggs when I hear someone whimpering by my window. Hunger no gree me check wetin dey so I ignored the sound and had my meal. While heading to church I saw one of my neighbors children crouched by the gate with her eyes as red as coal. Stella,what is the problem I asked. When I heard her reply I wished I hadn't asked her in the first place. Her father haven heard of his wife's condition from the other neighbors who had rush her to the hospital presumably decided to console himself with more local gin,he therefore drank himself to stupor and fell into the gutter beside the house,so late at night he limped in smelling of alcohol and every other vile thing you can think of. His children who hadn't eaten all day of course went to bed hungry.
I told Stella to check me after church so I could give her whatever I could spare in terms of food. I felt truly sorry for the girl.

.........Church was fun today ,we had a visiting pastor from another branch, his sermon was quite interesting as he laced it with his local language which am sure no one understood,he also had a song for every point he made whether relevant or not.
In the evening Stella came over and I gave her some rice ,sardine,a bunch of plantain and some money.

.........Saw a couple of missed calls from Claude, will call him tomorrow abeg. I wan sleep .  

.........  weekend at last . Biola was the first to call me and I purposely did not pick up because I wasn’t in the mood to speak to her.

.........My neighbors’ are at it again, they no dey tire to fight. I wonder what the problem is this time, the last time it was the husband who got drunk and presumed his wife was a punching bag, mind you she is presently carrying their fifth child and they live in the boysquaters. So this morning they start their usual yelling and curses began to rain in full torrent.

..........While eating a breakfast of oat meal, I heard shrill screams and I just had to take a sneak peak , I saw the gateman running towards the back quarters  and I had to call him to ask questions but what did I hear , lo and behold the pregnant woman had fainted after being punched into a pulp. I was so shocked.

...........My phone rang and some crazy guy was on the line telling me that he got my number from Claude (my restaurant owner friend). Mhhh and all he had to say was that he wanted me to do some PR stuff for him, so I scheduled lunch for Sunday so that I could get a proper perspective on what he wanted. Then soon as he cut the line I called Claude for the lowdown, I was assured that the guy was into legitimate business and he wanted to go into politics so basically he wanted someone who could launder his image and provide some sort of acceptable social gallery to fit his profile.

...........Later in the evening I overheard my neighbors’ whispering about the fight that occurred in the morning, the woman had a miscarriage and is still in the hospital.

I slept like a baby.

.........Thank God ,the week is almost over , can’t wait for the weekend. Adia didn’t show up for our date, she had to go to Abuja on an errand, so we are seeing later today. Mmmmmmh, jist go boku.

My oga dey vex today say the office work schedule dey favour me, shuo; na my fault?   I was just lucky that I didn’t have to come to work tomorrow, with the way he is going about it he may try to change it but I trust myself at the clock of closing time I would bolt right out of the office and zoom off.

...........4pm: I was sneaking out of the office when I heard my my oga screaming my name, quickly I got into the car and started the ignition, before I could move the car one of my colleagues ran to me shouting that oga wanted me to wait… for where I do like say I no hear na so I wind up, face front, zoom of sharp, sharp.

I headed to Saipan, for dinner with Adia. She came in looking fabulous in a white ensemble, we ordered drinks and jisted the night away it’s really good hanging out with my dear old friend again, thank God she is back in Lagos for good.

Got home 9.30 pm and crawled straight into bed.

Tuesday.

Work up late, soooo late. I dashed into the bathroom and am sure that I wasn’t clean after my bath because I really rushed it, then voom I rushed into the car and speed down to the office, lucky me; I got to work early. Finished my assignment and felt so good about it that I mentally gave myself a pat on the back because I know that I did a splendid job even if I say so, myself.

………I purposely avoided Biola today during lunch, I knew she would be at the neighborhood café because I saw staff from her office around the corner when I stepped out on to the corner street so I quickly stepped back into the office, I really didn’t want to listen to her whining today or any day for that matter.

………When she tells me that her boyfriend is irresponsible and I agree, she immediately becomes angry at me saying that I don’t like him because he is short thereby making me prejudiced and she goes on to tell me how much she loves him bla,bla,bla…in fact the matter tire me sef.

Come to think of it the guy is truly short and he looks like a refined monkey, seriously you need to see him in suit…mmh, okoro feeling funky. The last time I saw the dude he was actually wearing a hideous looking purple suit with pointed Aladin shoes that looked too big for his feet. I also though I caught a glimpse of yellow streaks in his teeth. Abeg make I leave that matter for now jo.

This is Tam's world

Monday.

   Mmmmmh ! back to work again, I wish the weekend could go on forever. Though it was hectic I had fun both with the dinner organized by the embassy and meeting Adia again after so many years, she really has changed. So tey she don yellow pass before.

......It was really a pleasant surprise to see her, am hoping that I would see more of her as she promised since she will be moving back to Lagos this month. I sure need a change from my other crazy friends. Friends like Biola who is now a pain in the …...On account of her constant whinning about her yeye boyfriend.

 Lord have mercy! Must there be traffic in lagos all the time, I really mustn’t be late today because I have to put finishing touches to my assignment and submit to my oga. Even though he is accommodating I really shouldn’t take him for granted.

…… Hectic day. Adia called me and we jisted for so long. We will have dinner on Wednesday then she will down load Abuja jist for me. So tired I need a warm bath badly. I guess the excitement of last night’s party hasn’t worn off.
