Sign my cast (virtually)

The kindness of strangers has demonstrated to me that we still live in a decent world after all. I'd really like to thank Lian for taking the time from his relaxing Sunday afternoon to drive and accompany me to the Woodbridge walk-in clinic in Irvine. Here's someone I've only seen on the badminton courts and played a match with, and yet he was willing to take the time to make sure I was doing alright after my injury the previous night - in fact, thanks to him and Helen for driving me back to my hotel the previous night.

I hopped on a flight back to Toronto on Wednesday and had to leave most of my stuff with Frank - thanks, and sorry to clutter up your home with my stuff.

My family has been a great help too; and with their care and attention I'm on my recovery.

Gengling's been cheering me on from afar and I know how frustrating it has been for her with our current situation. But I see things improving soon.

And thank you kindly to my friends and colleagues for wishing me well.

You can virtually sign my cast by leaving a comment; thanks. I wish you all well and may you each have a pleasant day. Take care.

Jouve Aviation Solutions, Shanghai

The lease for the office space has been signed and design and layout of the office is about to be finalized. I wonder which cube I'll get, or will I get to choose since I'll be among the first batch of new employees there.

In any case I hope I don't get the window to my back since I wouldn't get to see the nice view and secondly I don't like getting glare on my monitor.

So, I've upped a Google Earth screen cap of the new office location; for those familiar with Shanghai: it's on the PuDong side, adjacent to Century Park.



It's one of the two buildings that I've circled in red; I'm not sure which.
