Insert Clever Title Here

Life is good...its reasonably cool here, only supposed to get up to 92 today! (104 the other day) This morning was beautiful, slightly overcast and with a nice breeze. Great to be walking around staying out of the sun for a little bit. The day usually starts off kinda cool, and gets hotter and hotter as the day goes on, which is also what usually happens in my room. By dinnertime, its as hot in my room as it outside, and even though it cools down at night, I can't open either of my doors because the mosquitoes will flock inside. So its still pretty warm when I get to bed, but usually has cooled off a little by the time I wake up. And I'll usually stumble out of bed, open my balcony door to let some cool air in and then go back to sleep. But supposedly it gets hotter in April, so I'll keep you updated. :)

Went bowling the other night, it was pretty excellent and the first time I had been since high school. Had a bad first half of the first game due to rust, and a bad 2nd half of the 3rd game due to fatigue and rapidly dwindling lack of interest, but the rest I actually did OK. Bowled a 146 in the 2nd game, I didn't know I had it in me! But it was fun, they had galaxy bowling going on, so the place was dark and everything was in neon. Interesting experience throwing glowing bowling balls while listening to American pop music in the middle of Thailand. But lots of fun. (Though it was a struggle to refrain from yelling Big Lebowski quotes the entire time... "Over the line!") Also, the bowling alley was on the top floor of this big mall, and since we went around 9, the mall was shut down, which lead to a little exploration to find this place. I was walking with my friends Lex and Adam, and we made our way through a maze of dark hallways and run down rooms, only to come upon a modern looking bowling alley in the middle of nowhere. They also had an ice arena up there, and though there wasn't ice on it at the moment, we all agreed that once they do, we are heading up there to just lay down on the ice for a little slice of home. Also, while I wear dark socks and nice shoes for all things work related, bowling was the first time I had put on a pair of white socks since I've been here. And yes this means I have not participated in any sort of working out or cardio activity since I've been here. Though Lex said she saw a bball court with people on it, so hopefully I will finally get to play some basketball. I have seen a few courts around here, but never anyone playing on them, so hopefully soon. And Lex played so she said we could at least go shoot around if we can't find any games.)

Overall, life is good. It's weird the things I miss. I ran out of qtips the other day and it was driving me crazy! How am I supposed to dry and clean my ears after my shower? I have been doing it for so many years that suddenly when you can't, its kind of shocking. But my dad is sending me some soon, so I just have to hold out a little longer. Just weird that I can't find something like that here ya know? OK, I'm in a rambling mood, so I'm going to stop myself before I get into my workout regimen with my TV (not watching, using as a weight), my mutual understanding with the geckos, or my jobs doing manual labor for the family that owns my guesthouse. Those will have to wait for another day!
