JPOD - Staff Worker version 2.0

I am quite enjoying JPOD by Dougles Coupland, probably because I spent a year in IT support at University and can relate to the randomness of this book and at heart I am a geek! During the book there are pages full of random quotes and sentences that just add to the surreal life of Ethan and his JPOD companions. How far from reality is JPOD? Probably not that far off, although no one seems to sleep and they go on random trips to China (which hasn't happened to me yet). But perhaps in the fiction there is a base of reality that highlights the mundane and splashes it across absurdity. So it occurred to me that for fun I could write my own page of JPOD but relating to being a UCCF Staff Worker. And of course it is meant to be weird and not taken seriously.

A view from a bus seat

 

The outside world spinning in streams of green and grey
Stretching from left to right,
Beats of noise vibrating in ear holes
With strong smells of perfume
Curling its way up the aisle.
Hello mother with screaming child
Running endlessly through women with frowns
And big overcoats tucking in an identity.
Windows open. Windows close.
Hot air blown through the holes in shoes
That stand waiting for the stop.
Bells tinkle and large groups mingle
In and out of the stripy seats,
Covered in silhouettes of scarf’s and hats
Dreaming of summer beaches and boat houses.
Goodbye driver with fake smile;
How you must ponder as you spin the wheel,
Whether there is more to this stretch of road and life
Then grumpy abuses and baby prams?
How long before the clock ticks till your stop
And you can sit in the back seat, quite free
From red and green jams,
While sipping and slurping your steaming cup of tea.

A pinch of Italian cooking

I really enjoy cooking. I think cooking can be very creative and refreshing as you place onto your saucepan canvas an array of delicacies that will soon boil, fry and roast into wonderful aromas and melting tastes! Yum.
Last week Tim and I tried a Jamie Oliver recipe called Spaghetti con gamberetti e rucola (spaghetti with prawns and rocket). I really like how the Italian words sound because they are so close to Spanish!

And it was a success. Lots of flavours - lemon, fishy, and zingy. This is what it looked like:

 

 The picture doesn't do it justice. But the taste does. Why not try it yourself?

The recipe is here and its easy to make!

The writers room...

This is something that I found really interesting, what does a writers room look like?

A guy called Eamonn McCabe took some pictures of famous writers rooms, which range from neat and tidy to a complete mess! Its just fun to watch...

Check it out here.

I am pleased my desk doesn't look like this yet.....
