Where was I?

Where was I all these days when you came here looking for me? When you clicked on links that led you to no new pictures. No new stories. Where was FungaiJames?

I don’t know.

Perhaps I was blogging with my friends at Zimbablog? Perchance I was out jumping from gig to gig so I could put together enough photos for The ZimboJam? Maybe I was writing my first blog post for NewZimbabwe blogs? There is a possibility also that I was out seeking motivation on Motivated for Greatness

Who knows, I could have been guest blogging for Milton Kamwendo on Innov8 Motivation. Was it Aripano Infinity that kept me away for so long? Or Facebook? Or LinkedIn?

Was I just missing my love? Maybe I was just sitting here thinking. About Cholera. About confusion. About this big mess. About what I could do. About what WE could do.

Mayonnaise and money

As if for the first time

The day before yesterday, I went shopping in one of those supermarkets that are now selling groceries in US Dollars. It’s amazing how packed it was. People were shopping like crazy.

I stopped at a shelf that was loaded with mayonnaise. It had been long since I’d seen the stuff on a Zimbabwean supermarket shelf. US$5,00 for a 750g bottle. I was standing there doing some sums in my head, wondering if it was expensive or not, when  up came a woman and her daughter of about ten. (more…)
