As I Stand By the Bar Tonight

A glass in the air for the lovers we’ve lost, A toast to the memories we’ll treasure the most. A sip for never going back to my old ways, But f**k it, let’s take one last shot for the old days.

The night is still young and we are only getting older With these half naked girls, these women are only getting bolder. Spending this hard earned money on these pretty girls with soft bodies, They are only…

Where shall we go today? Right! Let me tell you a story.

About 3 weeks ago, I stopped by a friend’s office to chat. While there, this girl he works with comes around, I am a gentleman, I offer a handshake and I introduce myself. “Hi, I am Ian. You are pretty, what’s your name?” I said. And immediately, she retracted her hand saying, “Ian? Ian Paul?” I replied, “I believe so. Yes. Yes I am”

She then looks at this friend of mine [let’s call him Lugambo.]

Thank You for Always Getting the Uber

What’s going out without the comfort of riding an Uber up to your bedroom door at the end of the night? I can tell you what it isn’t, it isn’t comfortable. And it certainly isn’t a way to get her to come home with you.

A luxury we often take for granted because with Uber we have since returned the borrowed Cars from our parents. We can go out and drink more than the legal driving limit because a…

July Rains: July In My Mind 

July Rains; July is here

The worst part about July is probably the rains. The rains mean the days are cold and comfy, whereas the nights are cold and lonely. I must admit July has got me missing being with someone. Not that the feeling is persistent; I see an ex beaming somewhere, but when the tea is no longer warm enough, and I get into my cold silk sheets, that feeling comes running back.

The…

Roses are Red, Your Dress Was Blue, My new favorite Color on You

Roses are Red, Your Dress Was Blue, My new favorite Color on You

Although she was a little frightened by what a romantic dinner could mean, thankfully it’s what she wanted. Unspoken, it’s what he wanted too. Preferably a dark restaurant, one with dull warm lights [Like the night they spent hours at a rooftop of a restaurant just talking and eating]. She still hasn’t told him exactly why. Well, he knows she dislikes bright lights.

She mentioned something about…

#AbortioninUganda: Prolife or Prochoice?

#AbortioninUganda: Prolife or Prochoice?

Abortion: A deliberate termination of pregnancy.

If you are following #AbortioninUganda on twitter, you must have seen several opinions you completely disagree with and some that sound like ‘you are reading my mind.’ This is a very delicate debate and tempers have erupted because of opinions some ‘tweeps’ found absurd. So I’ll tread very lightly on the subject.

There are 3 circumstances under…

09 Women May: My Love For Babies. Mother’s Biggest Fear

09 Women May: My Love For Babies. Mother’s Biggest Fear

It’s been a while. Let’s talk about babies for a minute. My mother’s biggest fright about me and women is how much I love babies. Not exactly that, but what that could lead me into at an age where I am not ready financially and baby mama-lly. Plus mother also says she’s not ready. Read for what? To raise my kids because I told her am not hiring maids.

After several videos of how brutal maids can…

08 Women May: Sorry I forgot your birthday

08 Women May: Sorry I forgot your birthday

I wanted to lie and blame it on work, but I’ll come out clean. It was a regular day at work. Had my morning coffee a little earlier than usual. I guess it’s because I forgot to check my Facebook that day, otherwise I’d have seen the notification.

I sat at my desk for the better half of the morning. Only stepping out at 11:00 for a presentation. It went great, we nailed it. They loved the new…

07 Women May: Choose Your Battle

07 Women May: Choose Your Battle

I am reading a book titled “Don’t Marry” by James W Donovan and it’s been an interesting revelation. First of all, my male friends think am going through a crisis. What’s with all this women stuff and marriage and relationships and relationship help books? I try to play it off by insulting them and threatening to troll them online.

The truth is, I am not going through a crisis – I hope.The way…

06 Woman May: I’ll Fix You with My Love

06 Woman May: I’ll Fix You with My Love

Lady Gaga’s “Cure” is currently my favorite song in the world. Particularly the line that says, “If I can’t find the cure, I’ll fix you with my love.”

There are 3 things I am unintentionally good at when it comes to women; confusion, making mistakes (and learning from them)and loving as right as love can be. I can hear some exes protesting this, and I’d understand because of the mistakes and…

05 Women May: Prettiest Woman I Ever Saw

05 Women May: Prettiest Woman I Ever Saw

I walked into the office building this morning feeling rather optimistic about the day. Despite sleeping really late, struggling to wake up after snoozing my alarm a record 5 times, I was feeling ready for the day.

Half way into the lobby face buried into my BlackBerry, I look up to see where am going and there she was!

Have you ever met someone that completely blows every corner of your mind?…

04 Women May: Be On The Same Page. Always!

How do I know all these things? Experience. Which they say is the best teacher, for fools! I am guilty as charged. I have been ranking high on several fools’ lists.

Not too long ago, I met this girl. From day one, we were absolutely on the same page. This was the reason our first few months together were perfect. Dates, movies, sleepovers, hanging out, texting, *exting, phone calls… it was all…

03 Women May: About Our Date this Weekend

03 Women May: About Our Date this Weekend

We are going on a date this weekend. What should you wear? Something comfortable. To be honest, I don’t really care, as long as you are there.

I called the restaurant the other day and made reservations. Why so early? I want it to be perfect for you. For me, it’ll be perfect. A beautiful you blushing under the dim fancy lights, my favorite restaurant; that’s the kind of perfect I am defining.

I…

02 Women May: I’d rather cry in a Mercedes than smile on a bicycle

02 Women May: I’d rather cry in a Mercedes than smile on a bicycle

“I’d rather cry in a Mercedes than smile on a bicycle,” a phrase am sure you have repeatedly heard. You might have even used it. Ideally what this means is; you would rather be rich and unhappy than poor and happy. Really!?

In the real world, this idiotically applies. Wealth, the sense of security and comfort that come with it are more desirable than happiness if you had to choose. Happiness is…

01 Women May: Where do I begin?

01 Women May: Where do I begin?

Right! A starting point for me when it comes to women isn’t easy to find. My life and the women in it or that have been in it is like a bullseye on a wounded cheetah and you tasked to hit it. Sometimes I sit and think about the greatest ones and the most regrettable ones and it’s in sheer amazement at how some of the events played out.

It’s all been fun, sometimes it’s been frustratingly…

00 Women May: What’s that about?

00 Women May: What’s that about?

The whole of the month of May I will be writing about women. I will be telling you real stories, from experience and observation and letting you in on a little personal stuff about me and some of the girls and women I’ve met in my life.

Growing up in between two sisters and mostly raised by my mother, I find that I naturally understand and relate easily with women. I owe some of my most precious…

3rd Letter to the Future Mother of My Child

Ps: This was written last night

Dear future mother of my child, Where I am, it’s a little over midnight I still don’t know where you are, But I hope you are doing alright.

Now something has been bothering me, I couldn’t sleep the other night and tonight is the same. Well, honey, I have this scrapbook somewhere online, It’s my reality where I create and put all the baby things, It’s a fancy…
