I have so many things going on right now, I’ll be doing three jobs later today when I wake up. But my family and friends make it all worth it; I wouldn’t trade them for anything. I am blessed to have you all.

Pokemon Go in Thailand – Day 7
“The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn. ” – Alvin Toffler
If Pokemon Go is ultimately not about leveling up or hoarding imaginary kawaii creatures, perhaps it’s about searching for something. And as in life, the most demanding searches are sometimes rewarded with the best results. Playing a game in a deserted virtual world in anticipation of others coming to join me, then, should result in me winning the Thai lottery. Amen.
Pokemon Go in Thailand – Day 6
Nintendo and Niantic have apparently abandoned plans for release in Asia anytime soon, as rumored this week. Sales of lao khao and other paint-stripping beverages skyrocketed when the news broke on IGN:
“The team is currently heads down working on the game. We do not have any announced plans for countries beyond New Zealand, Australia, US and Germany at the moment.” -Chris Kramer, Vice President”
(for my Thai readers: “heads down” is Farangspeak for “sleeping”)
Pokemon Go in Thailand – Day 5
Well, I’ve been afraid of changing
Cause I’ve built my life around you
But time made you bolder
Even children get older
And I’m getting older too
Pokemon Go in Thailand – Day 4
I’ve been walking around alone in this goddamn deserted game for so long, I’m having Bethesda hallucinations – and me without my trusty VATS-Enhanced Flaming Rolling Pin.

Hello out there! HELLOOOOOOO! IS SOMEBODY OUT THERE? SOMEBODY?…<anybody??>..

Lonely in Sarakham
I am either the first or the last of my people. Covered 10 kilometers today and not a single creature or station… This is what happens when you sideload Pokemon Go in rural areas of countries not yet supporting the game. The only time I’ve seen another living creature was during the tutorial. I am the wanderer of the wasteland.
What’s for Breakfast: Protein Explosion Edition
There just isn’t much variety when it comes to breakfast in Maha Sarakham. Most people eat grilled pork skewers and sticky rice or some variation of rice porridge. While delicious, these get quite boring.
If there’s time after dropping the kids off at school, we sometimes go eat lunch stuff for breakfast at one of the few places open that early, but most days we eat at home, because we make the best coffee in town (not terribly difficult).
Today, Nam fried up all the leftover meats in our fridge, including gyoza stuffing, sweet Chinese sausage, and pork floss (that Mina loves eating over rice, lol!). The eggs were also perfectly done. It all came together quite nicely.
