Fast deliveries…

My Chinese faux small-scales lizard watch strap could arrive on Wednesday. Can’t wait to pair it with my MQ-27. I hope they play nice. For 35RM, it’s a decent buy but may not be the best match for a matte resin case.

I have pretty much given up buying luxurious things. Making money is not a prospect for me and the gods of fashionability bless me not. Stashing away 1kRM, it will not go towards an MT-G anymore. Nor towards any Apple products. But to start CNY with full pockets, ready to go on the road, should be my aim.

The general mood here in Malaysia is one of cynicism. Poverty is rampant. The government isn’t strong. Meanwhile, wars and rumors, financial scandals, food shortages, rage around the world. These are the end times but it may be March 2024 before any obvious sign occurs that we are near Tribulation.

Wearing my 70s Tenor-Dorly on rubber. It’s been doing +6s/day of late. Not too bad for an automatic. +3 would be ideal but the movement is 50 years old. More later after my walk thru Kuala Lumpur…

Went to MidValley instead of KL. Bought white and black ‘bumpers’ from Ace, to make STT pieces. Total cost, $8 which was 4x more than I bargained for. But I’m tired of not having my own ‘professional’ STT set, being the inventor of the game. Had KFC for lunch. Must have put in an hour and a half of walking. Quite tired.

My T-D gained less than 1s since 8am, which was 5 hours ago. Pretty darn good. No news of my parcel since 4am. Check it again tonight. Want to watch some YouTube.

I haven’t had a visitor from Malaysia download anything from my website, FreeLunch.my since… forever. MY is the country code for Malaysia and where my server is located, with YeahHost in Penang. I’m so glad to share my writings locally, where I also reside. And I hope people will buy mss2 as well and share it. No updates on my parcel since 4am this morning.
