How to start the day
I usually get to work just past 8. The office would be rather still and quiet, with just one or two early birds staring silently into their computer screen. I would place my wallet, keys and handphone in one corner, switch on the laptop, pick up the water bottle and mug, and make my way to the pantry. The mug would contain the remains of last evening's milo or teh-su-su(yuks!), and the water bottle almost empty. I would wash them before preparing my fresh mug of milo and fill up the bottle with fresh water.
How does one wash a mug? First pour off any remains and rinse it with water. Pick up a sponge (usually dirty-looking) and squirt some liquid detergent onto it. And squirt it did, right onto my pants at the most misleading position! The aim was perfect. What a trajectory! It leaped over the entire expanse of the sink and had to land on my pants of all places. A yellowish semi-viscous squirt of a liquid (it was Mama-lemon) drooled slowly down my pants. I quickly got hold of a paper towel and started wiping it off. The more I dabbed at it, the more it became a white patch of tiny bubbles.
