In response to ""Sir...Your Disorder Is Ready""

I have made great progress on my trip. Leave on the 19th here; arrive on the 21st in Kuala Lumpur. I will leave Penang on the 1st for a short flight to Phuket, stay 2 days then fly to Udon Thani... avoiding Bangkok. I'll be in Ayutthaya on the 15-17th of December. I may have time to see you before or after.

I also have no plans for January yet.

Pan is driving my bonkers; but, I'm slowly understanding that much of it is cultural and how he uses language.

As for HOCD... some of us are just who we are. I've always been left-handed. That wasn't always acceptable and many suffered from the labels.

I remind Pan that he's handsome just the way he is. I'll repeat that until he accepts that.

In response to "The Rain in Spain..."

I have my new passport (plans not finalised). I'll be headed your way.

Up for a visit?

I love the rain...

Udon Thani... dry. 31-34°/18-24°. Warming up for a couple days later this week. I'm looking forward to the cooler nights.

In response to "Ignorance is Bliss"

Pannya also has limited knowledge outside of singing, modeling, selling. He knows the rituals and loves a good massage and eating out. He does speak some English.

But... in the USA, many didn't vote for various reasons. Ignorance is bliss?

In response to "Save or Regret"

I have lost posts for various reasons. I have to be careful about letting my guard down. I had decent internet connection with dtac. Here... there are times...

I must memorize คุณต้องการทำอะไร?

In response to "The Easiest Way to Lose Weight"

Communication across culture and language... been there more than once.

Just be you. Just be 'there'.

In response to "A Third World Affliction"

Yep. Foreigners have the impression that they can do whatever they want. Same in Costa Rica. Not living by rules and common sense has consequences.

Tap water can be an issue. I boiled water or used filtered water.

Papaya salad though... just encourage Nada to use filtered water. It's the "National Dish of Isaan" and could be an insult to not eat it. I can't eat it myself because of the chilis. I like green papaya cooked.

In response to "Jesus Who?"

As a non-Christian I don't believe in the Christian notion of Hell.

Pan is a devout Buddhist by how he acts. I've seen him in action.

Actions (as in the Book of James) speak louder than words or money imho.

In response to "How To Avoid the Scam in Three Easy Steps"

Pan and I had to come up with an agreement. He pushed at times (yes, he's Thai). I just sent him a birthday gift (October 14th is his birthday). It's not a loan.

I never told him my income. I think that he thinks it's more than it is. He wouldn't understand how money works for me regardless.

Udon Thani is known for cross cultural hook-ups. The good, the bad and treacherous.

In response to "Micro-Managed"

Ah... Isaan... never spicy enough. Don't take it personally.

Street food can be awesome. I like roti, chicken livers, fried chicken or fish. 7/11 also helps.

In response to "Money Makes the World Go Around"

I never heard of a pink card. Thai paperwork is confusing and Pan and others helped at times.

12.000 baht is normal. It's why a 200 baht meal is a lot for average Thai workers and nothing to most ex-pats. A pizza can cost 250+. I like my fish-fry with coleslaw and french-fries for 73 baht and roti for 35 baht. Prices should be higher in Hua Hin than Udon Thani, lower in SiSaket and presumably lower as well in Roi Et.
