Why do I find it hard or rather amusing that I do not listen to her? She tells me this and that and then at the end I find out that she was right. Not once, not twice. Even lost count. And it happens over and over. I'm not that bad anyway. I have listened sometime.
I had a wonderful weekend. Spent the Saturday bussing(I can use this here now- shebi I name my own blog, don't say wrong mentality o) through a section of the Lagos metropolis with kitty. Starting out on the Island to the mainland. My plan, see Tumi,Busayo and Azubuike. I did see them. It was fun. First was Busayo who was at home. I had called Tumi earlier. He had to work. And then Azubuike.
I spent a while talking with Busayo on the board interview he attended recently with the Sahara power folks. He was asked a question on Rankin cycle. A process the mechanical engineering guys talked about a lot while I was on training.
As we talked, a call came in. It was Azubuike. He had just woken up. His tooth ached. And he couldn't sleep anymore. He wanted something from him. And then he called me. I had called him earlier to inform him of my visit. I went to see him. I stayed with him a bit. Saw his wife for the first time since November when they got married. She's expecting (yippeee! Azu is gonna be a dad), I did see the wedding pictures in a gorgeously packaged book +a big one that cost a lot no need saying the amount) and then back to the tooth, he pulled it out at the dentists'.
Did I say kitty came around....I didn't right? She did. Was fun having her there. It was more like a reunion. A full one this time around. There was food too. Cooked by Dami. Spaghetti, chicken, beef stew and.....it was dun(sweet in Yoruba). They gave her the tag - olowoshibi which I eventually translated to spoon hand and they all laughed. They didn't tell me the meaning though but I could tell it meant someone that cooks well. Never mind me, I am from outskirts of the southwest, in fact from the north central self.
Now the part where I didn't listen...getting back home was something else(not telling)...I could have carried the mitsubishi but chose to use the bus. Kitty prefers we drive but sometimes I just want to bus it. I saw the need later though. It would have been stressless than it was.
Another time when she told me about the timing we had. I felt we would do it in no time but turned out to be the way she said. And many more....
O'Kitty got home safe. Had to walk her to her street though. It was night. Didn't want my woman going alone at that time (lessons from Pastor Kingsley's LDM sermons). I did too.
