aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!!

where does the time go? trying to keep updates, but it's not possible. i am back in bangkok, visa in passport, have been to penang, found a place to live, starting on thye first. until then rin and i will happioly reside in our hotel which also happens to be a brothel. at least there is free porn and cheap room service.

i have survived sonkran, wet and withered, was bitten by a soi dog, chased down a robber and had to translate to the german man that the robber was sorry for stealing his money....but he looked drunk...slept in the airport, had my savings acount cleared out by a shady hotel, have found a new thing to make my life better in thailand...called AIR CONDITIONING. something we didn't have in phuket...or didn't use. now, i no longer think it is wimpy, i swear by it.

have managed to find a shirt at a thai market i can wear, and it is nice nice nice. been shopping, eating good food, sleeping well, and things are finally settling down. will write something a little more detailed, but no more promises. i lost my minidrive, along with my sanity, and can no longer write from home. and so, we will have to see. starting on the 1st i will be out of the brothel and into some sort of routine.

good luck to r, i am sorry i didn't get to see you before you left. have fun in uk....will miss you.
