It’s been a really long time since I blogged. God knows why, really, since I am certainly not one of those ‘busy’ people who don’t have a minute to themselves. I have always managed to make time for the things I have wanted to. Still, as they say, better late than never.
Yesterday, the new PM was elected… or something to that effect. And today’s newspapers have gone on and on about what a ‘momentous’ and ‘jubilant’ day it is for all of us.
Hmm… call me selfish, but my main concerns are quite simple, really. I’d like to go home without feeling like a mob will attack every time I see crowds gathering on the streets… I would like to go home knowing there is electricity for the entire day and night… I would like it if the streets were cleaner and greener, giving my eyes some sort of relief from the hideous state of the city, with construction sites being set up in the most inconvenient areas…
Hey I would love it if there was cleanliness and comfort to be found in the city other than in my home, office, and coffeehouses and restaurants… Sounds like a tall order, huh?
