Bangkok can be tough on your body.
As part of my weight loss effort, on each of my days off I spend an hour or more walking. Usually I either carry a bottle of water with me or I’ll buy some at 7-11. Bottled water is cheap here.

On New Year’s Day I slept late, and after waking up for a little while in the morning and writing a blog entry I was back to sleep for an early afternoon nap. There was a girl at my place who had called me around 6 a.m. looking for a place to sleep after a long night of partying, and she woke me up around 4 p.m. She was dressed and had her face made up, ready to go to work.

G.G.Gone, typing messages and it’s official: I’m stocky

This blog has no central theme… just a few ideas all squished together.
Closing out the weekend with My Goodbye Girl
My Goodbye Girl (GG) spent three days with me, leaving my room at 9:30 this morning, about 6 hours earlier than I’d anticipated. I wrote earlier about our night out on Thursday; on Friday night we went to Isaan Tawandaeng.
GG is from Isaan, and I had expected her to love Isaan Tawandaeng.
Not so.

Sunday, 21 December 2008 · 6 Comments
Here’s a link to a blog that explains Thai politics since 2006 very concisely.
I found this blog via a link on the website. To quote Bangkok Pundit, “It sounds more absurd once you read it all.”
