Hi blog!

I'm back at Macs hoarding the broadband again! Went through the day in a virtual daze as I realised to my horror that I had left my shoebag in this place yesterday after that downloading binge.

Had already assessed the likelihood of retrieving my 2-month-old Reebok shoes at virtually nil when I left for work, so you can understand the lack of enthusiasm during the day.


In my mind, I was already planning to spend over $50 on a new pair of shoes, trying to make myself feel better by reminding myself that that pair was already soaked through with the sweat of my many workouts and tennis matches.

Fortunately, my office wireless connection was excruciatingly slow, so I decided to resume re-targeting my daily quota at the same place.

I checked my favourite spot where I had left it and also the little cupboard next to the disposal chute. Unsurprisingly, it wasn't there. Next, I glanced behind the front counter and could not spy my shoebag or anything resembling it.

Then as I looked towards the eZ-Link machine, my heart leapt as I spied a familiar bulging bag lying on the ground in front of the manager's desk! I knew I had found my shoes!!

The staleness of the stockmarket currently has darkened my mood sufficiently so a little lifting of the spirit is a welcome event indeed!

I'm thus glad to just make it through today and am targeting a beaten-down stock for tomorrow: KL- listed Mahajaya!
