Dedicated to Michelle

The other day friend asked me what happened to my blog. I felt a rush of guilt... oh crap. I have so let you down blog! I've allowed you to collect cyber dust and I've restricted you from feeling the gentle massage of my keyboard strokes... I think it's safe to say that blogging is not my passion... if this blog had four legs and chased squirrels I would be much more attentive... Last time we saw each other, I was eating pancakes with some monks in Pattaya.... since then I saw some more monks in Cambodia, ate some tapas in Spain, went to the motherland, Italia, with a bottle of wine and my brother, watched some inkers in Bangkok, traipsed around my favorite market in Bangkok, Pak Khong Talat, and went for a sail to Ko Lan... Phewww.. I'm tired! And as I write this on my 6 month anniversary as an expat, it's clear that I'm hooked on this life...

Monks Rockin' it at Breakfast

Even monks can't resist the charms of the Hard Rock Cafe in Pattaya. Wonder if they made it to the bubble/foam party at the pool?

T-shirts, dildos, and guns, oh my!

Where else in the world can you see a ping pong shot out of a vagina at a place called Super Pussy, while Che Guevara sits next to guns and dildos, and Obama watches a rabbit give it in the rear to a duck?

Just another night in Pat Pong...

Forgive me Blog

Okay, so I guess I should never commit to doing something every day other than breathing and brushing my teeth (okay, maybe just breathing). Committing to something every day is an invitation for failure in my world. The picture a day was going strong while I didn't have a life. Then, suddenly, I had a friend in town and ditched my photo-a-day in exchange for forgetting what day it is, waking up at a decent hour, and living out of my backpack. So, alas, I am back and with this entry; a photo summary of the last 2 1/2 weeks of life for this teacher in Thailand.
