shocking undoubtedly, but i have been back nearly 20 days and have not eaten laksa or orh luat. possibly this disqualifies me from citizenship.

(neither have i seen a ballet, play or concert in the new esplanade theatres, nor have i been to boat quay or clark quay or the new empress place museum, though those are forgivable.)

i have done no work, but that is a matter for tossing in bed.

i am running out of time.
