Rants, ramblings about my life, work, politics, current events and my obsessions with yarn, knitting, and good music. Thursday, July 31, 2003. Oh so very tired today. I haven't been sleeping well since getting back from vacation and it's really starting to take a toll. Posted by Caren @ 8:53 AM. Sunday, July 27, 2003. Chris respsonded by saying that it's something "Mommy and Daddy should explain to you". I had to walk a few steps behinds as not to bust a gut laughing in front of the kids. Ah the ...Slept...

And no one listened. Posted in Alphabet Soup. On November 24, 2012. And suddenly, there he is. Simon Cowell, in the flesh and looking JUST as he does on TV. (It’s remarkable, that uncanny resemblance people on TV or in the movies have to their on-camera countenances when you see them in real life, innit? Complete with his trademark, fitted T-shirt. And what’s your name, sweetheart? Red, I stammer. And what will you be singing for us today, Red? Okay, let’s hear it. Good luck. PS Okay, okay, I didn’t actu...

And no one listened. Je suis en Francophile, et vouz? Posted in Alphabet Soup. On November 29, 2012. I have never forgiven the French Huguenots for not wielding more influence and forcing their language on the natives when they settled in D’Afrique du Sud. Maybe the heat was shocking to their systems (which, hello, but what then was their excuse in so much of equally hot Afrique where the natives were forced to become native French-speakers? Grateful to at least be in the school of my dreams, I heeded th...

And no one listened. Posted in From the Fourth Estate. On November 26, 2012. On a Friday afternoon in mid-March, as I was getting my car washed (which is probably why it began pouring at that moment, but never mind.), who would show up next to me but a major South African celebrity: Haas Das* himself, the legendary Riaan Cruywagen. For my international imaginary readers,. No shit, Sherlock. He was SO lovely to me. Chatted to me for about 30 whole minutes. Of course, he didn't have much of a choic...The i...

Portrait of the artist as a young girl - Redsaid

http://www.redsaid.net/2012/11/portrait-of-the-artist-as-a-yo.html

And no one listened. Portrait of the artist as a young girl. Posted in Jaw-Dropping Awe. On November 27, 2012. There once was a little girl from Canada. A special spirit, she was always amazing to those who knew and loved her, but then one day, after getting a wonderful and noble idea and - more importantly - acting. On it, she unintentionally began drawing attention to herself until the rest of the world recognised her awesomeness as well. Receive email notification of further comments. Is a South Afric...

And no one listened. Little girl (not) lost. Posted in Amusement Park. On November 22, 2012. As promised last night, here's the story:. It was a mid-winter's night when I was about 14 years old. The Pretoria Show (sort of like the US equivalent of a State Fair combined with a trade show) which ran for a couple of weeks every year, was in full swing. I looked up. It was a yellow South African Police helicopter and it was flying low across the grounds, sweeping the search light back and forth. We s...And o...

And no one listened. Time to come clean. Posted in Alphabet Soup. On November 23, 2012. After almost a year of not blogging which is a long stretch, even for the self-proclaimed World’s Laziest Blogger - those two of you imaginary readers who are still hanging around (the third one defected at around July this year) may have noticed that there has been a slight spike in blogging activity on this here blog lately.

Teaser - Redsaid

http://www.redsaid.net/2012/11/teaser.html

And no one listened. Posted in Alphabet Soup. On November 21, 2012. This is a total cheating post, since I'm seriously on deadline (done with the financial article. I told you about yesterday - phew! But now I've been unleashed upon the subject of network deployment in South Africa.), so instead, I'm going to pretend to be a TV preview and tell you, in a hopefully enticing manner, what I'll be blogging about tomorrow. Okay? Okay (And if you're not okay with it. tough luck! Stint in the United States wher...
