The Earth will survive... with or without humans. Perhaps our molecules will recombine into something greater. One can hope for a future regardless.

In response to "Getting Away"

Yes, in general, two-three nights sounds perfect. I'm slowing down so "one night" is problematic. See how having a guest goes. I'll likely visit you when I can also go to Prachuap Kiri Khan so please tell me how that visit goes.

In response to "Bah Humbug"

I don't like mid-December - mid-January in Montana. Too gloomy and the place is ghostly.

Growing up December was brutal unless it snowed. January was snowier and brighter.

Being elsewhere is fine with me. Thailand last year. Thailand this year.

I don't celebrate Christmas.

In response to "Mr Diabetes"

Hey Dr Gonzo. Sounds like you're doing well. Compared to the alternative, I think a little weight gain might be a small price to pay.
Every NA and AA meeting I've ever been to has featured candy or pastries of some kind. I'm pretty sure it just goes with the territory. The last time I used was a pretty heavy relapse in 2018 but I've been clean since then. No drinking or drugging. MAYBE a joint once or twice a year. I stayed pretty heavy for the first couple years of sobriety.

Even today, I have a severe sweet tooth. I can't sleep without a belly full of something sweet. I've found that my body doesn't mind the sugar in peanut butter and milk. I can gorge myself and still stay lean.

I'm glad you and Nada found each other. I look forward to your adventures together.

In response to "High Season vs Low Season"

Hadn't thought of MSG and coughing. I don't add salt like many people.

I've had three days of coughing. A bit better earlier today but coughing now as I typed.

High season = must book in advance.

Cooler. High 80s this week; high 60s at night.

Sugary donuts today! And coffee.

Not much of an appetite though.

In response to "Schools in Thailand"

Yep. Uniforms. Short >>> long pants. Fighting is seen in movies, but I sense less violence in general in-real-life. Respect is absolute.

I'm sleeping on the floor tonight.

He'll survive that aspect of school.

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.

Today is an Important Day...As is Every Day You Breathe.

Today I am flying to Bangkok to sort out my retirement visa. Once that's done, I need to focus on where in Thailand I'm going to put down my roots. I plan to sign a six-month lease and then buy a good touring motorcycle. A Paris/Dakar-style bike with plenty of power, great fuel capacity and built for long-distance rider comfort. I'm thinking of a KTM, Yamaha, BMW or a Honda, around the 1000cc mark. It needs to have plenty of storage. I will need wet weather gear (given the total number of days it rains here in the tropics), boots and of course, a top-quality helmet. Helmets are not a requirement here in Thailand, but seeing the news at night with the number of traffic accidents involving motorcycles, I won't be risking my head colliding with the pavement without at least a fighting chance of survival.

Wish me luck with the visa application...
