Day 29- Men would definitely end up in a cul du sac, the sea or jumping off cliffs

The sun is shining and I try to soak in as much as I can of its rays in the balcony, breakfast is fresh beetroot, carrot and apple juice and a few slices of sourdough toast with butter washed down with green tea.
Shortly after that I do a little meditation and a yoga session, what a great start of the weekend, sunny days give me energy!

I open the UPC box and see 3 booklets of instructions, a CD, a few cables and a black box. Here’s me thinking I could just plug the box and the wireless world would be at my fingertips..Well no. I still don’t get it how I can have free minutes of international calls when I don’t even have a landline. It’s easy they said, just read the instructions. ‘Read the instructions, does anyone actually do that?’

Some people say that life should come with an instructions manual, but in fairness who would read it? I think most people would be in highly disadvantage towards the ones who would really follow the instructions. What if it was a map? Men would definitely end up in a cul du sac, the sea or jumping off cliffs before touching a map.  
I lay the contents of the box on the ground and unplug the Wimax. ‘Farewell you lazy worker, you are fired and here’s your replacement, would you be so kind to explain it the basics of how this works and get it connected?!’   

My mum calls and I explain her I am in the middle of a hideous task. ‘But you loved puzzles when you were a kid, you could stay hours putting the pieces together’  
‘Sure, I used to play with dolls too and until two years ago I hated whiskey, we grow up and our likes change. Still feel the same dislike towards brussel spouts and cooked carrots though, iac!

Hm my brain cells clutch themselves and pass the word to the surrounding ones but not even one of them is capable of making it work at this moment and I am getting a headache so I plug the Wimax back. This is a task for a Sunday afternoon, may even consider reading the manual.
