heine
Nam and I went out for steaks; it was the first t-bone I’ve had since god knows when. I drank a few or more beers and ended up back at home taking a shower in the rain. Nam even brought me a bar of soap, because it was pissing down. Taking a shower in the rain… I cannot recommend this highly enough. Happy Hiroshima day!

3 is the magic number
…and I’d just like to point out I’m 33 today. That’s right, I came into this world on the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing. Just call me what I am, irreverent atom boy.

massively attacked
I laid down on my bed for a few minutes to watch this Massive Attack DVD that I brought from Japan. The beats were on and my mind went into caramel dreams mode… next thing I know, I’m laying in a pool of sweat and drool, and I’ve just had the best nap in recent memory – I even fell asleep on my stomach, and that like never happens (I also fell asleep on top of a pile of crap on my bed so I woke up with shapes of a pen, the TV remote, and several CDs imprinted on my body). There are certain DVDs that have this tranquilizing…

No fireworks this year
I’d like to say it was an intentional gesture to teach the students in my public speaking class the Gettysburg Address on the Fourth of July, but the truth is that I completely forgot about it. Dammit. For a sick pyro like me, forgetting about fireworks and barbecue is sacrilege. In other news, we have decided to build a new house. Happy Fourth!

Pot
Highlight of my weekend: Being told “wow, you really live out in the country” by a visitor from Wisconsin whose biggest complaint seems to be the complete lack of cheese wheels here. ||||||||| A close second: kidsincorporated.us (I don’t remember what channel we got Kids Incorporated on at home but that goddamn song is stuck in my head for another twenty five years now for sure)

Do I need a Boston Terrier?
Please tell me. I saw this photo and fell in love with her: The thing is, her markings are dirty and she looks like she has an eye problem. Check out the page of photos her sellers put up here. Another issue is that I really don’t want to support a puppy mill by making a $200 purchase from them, but there seems to be no good breeders selling Boston Terriers in Thailand.

Recent Observations
I just saw a big house gecko bite another on the neck, and it wouldn’t let go. Finally the one being bitten managed to escape, but the big one chased it all the way across the wall. I wonder what that was all about; it’s not like there’s a shortage of bugs to eat around here or anything. //////////////////////// For the English camp, we stayed at a campground in a nature preserve, up in the mountains. We stayed in bungalows maintained by the forest rangers, who wore tigerstripe and treebark camouflage, and watched over the entire preserve with high-power binoculars. Once a day or so, they would hear a message…
