MC CLASSICS: MOUSE MARATHON

Lee Jaylin, a 31-year-old workaholic Advertising Executive, wonders just what the point of it all is when her long-time friend and lover departs to travel the world, leaving her with the less than exhilarating task of promoting ‘designer condoms’.

Is this really the rat race? Or just a long and lonely mouse marathon?
