the tingle

I have to do a demo to my benefactors. The items I wanted to show wasn't finished so I worked on it all night just to show something that would satisfy what was wanted. The meeting was early morning around 9am, 10 most I assume.

I worked trying to get it working till early in the morning. I was hoping I will still have time to cover the journey from home to work. This is a 300km journey which is usually 5 hours or if I have a fast car and a good sleep I might be able to do in 3 and a half hours. Unfortunately this was not to happen. I finished around 8'ish. No way I was going to make it. But I had to go anyways even if I was going to be late.

Along the way my boss sms asking where I was. I had no phone credit to answer. The highway has few facilities for topping up mobiles and I didn't want to topup $10 at the petrol station, which was far and few anyway. So I just kept going.

Finally I get to the office at 3:45pm. 'Slightly' late :) . The door at the entrance was locked but this is just the door to gain access to the office. I then try calling the girl who should be in the office. No answer. After a few tries I blah lah. Went to the KL home which is pretty much empty. This is my pad when I need to go to KL.

I get some snacks to last me the night then watch TV. Next day I had nothing plan so I watched more TV and read the news. All the while lying on the back of my head. I was too lazy to go out and buy food but eventually had to. Starving and lack of water. Resting on the back of the head over an extended period of time tends to give you a headache. This I now have.

On friday I planned to go to the office but due to procrastination it eventually become to late. All the while my boss was calling. I wasn't too keen to face the music so I made myself invisible and watched TV. I also tried to do some work as well. By this time I had a headache. Lack of water and food I guess. Was too lazy to go out and buy some.

Next day I went home, 300km and 6 hours later I was back with the family.
