    7 Ways to Handle a Hard Day

    March 6, 2019

    Reading Time: 3 Minutes Oh WHAT a turd of a week it’s been guys. It’s weeks like this one when I just wanna come home after a HARD day’s work and, to quote a scholar “make sweet, tender love with my baby, and cry in her arms until we fall asleep”. Hahahaha, that scholar makes me laugh. But truth be told, it has been a trying week. Got a couple of urgent deadlines due as well as a FLOOD of maintenance requests for multiple properties, on TOP of not sleeping well AND feeling under the weather. Boohoo to TheFrugalSamurai – he’s doing it tough. But I am determined to not…

    Christmas Karma!

    December 23, 2018

    Reading Time: 3 Minutes What’s up guys! Are we all enjoying the holidays? I hope you guys are! Cos geebers, you wouldn’t believe the week I was having – just frigging WOW.

    What to do in a Bear Market (Part 2)

    November 21, 2018

    Reading Time: 3 Minutes What’s up guys! How’s the week coming along? Bit of a rollercoaster so far for your truly, work’s been pretty brutal these last couple of days. Life. Is. Hard. But it’s harder if you don’t keep going right! Fight the good fight, it’s what we all must do. Speaking of the good fight, a quick congratulatory word for my friend Bugzy, who was married to the girl of his dreams this week.

CRAZY FROG RINGTONE CONTINUES His wife, a most nubile specimen of her sex, is awoken from her slumber. “Wha…what’s zat… get it” she says, as she kicks out under the covers – both feet hitting their target.
