Had a great time in Bangkok. The heat was insufferable, but everything else was beyond belief. If you have the chance, try the Shambala Boutique Hostel. Very comfortable, friendly, and affordable.
Six days until Thailand. The clock is running

"Thing that got me was not her list of things she hated, since she was obviously crazy as a Cyborg, but fact that always somebody agreed with her prohibitions. Must be a yearning deep in human heart...

Watching the World Cup final match this afternoon. I'm not exactly sure why. Maybe it's because the announcers claim the game is being broadcast to over a billion viewers worldwide. A BILLION viewers!!!
I'm not really sure who to root for. I don't know anything about either team, so all I have to go with are the countries they represent...
**Italy**
Every player's name...

What gorgeous weather this afternoon! So gorgeous, in fact, that I decided to take the afternoon off. I've lived in this neighborhood now for almost three months, and there are so many pretty little side streets and boulevards that normally go unseen because of the daily routine. So...I decided to just wander around this afternoon. Wandering can be good for the soul...

Have a new trip planned...going to try for Italy in late summer. If I can only afford it...
