Thailand’s Royal Po-pos have GOT to find something else better to do with their time than this! Turning pink with shame A pink ”Hello Kitty” armband wrapped around a khaki-clad arm is shouting for attention at the police Crime Suppression Division. It is a new disciplinary measure introduced especially for police investigators who refuse to play by the rules. Oh, and right above it on the webpage, the headline reads like this: 193 killed, 1,056 wounded in 5 months in troubled South I mean, seriously. What the fuck!?!? While the South is going to hell in a radical Muslim hand...

First of all, I have forgotten to mention that my friends James and Aurora are pregnant! Yey! They told us over dinner last Friday. It’s a gigantic news! And then yesterday, I went to lunch with Terence and Angela in Belmont Shore. We haven’t sat down and chat for a while, especially with Angela. It worked out that I could see them both at the same time. We went to Le Creperie…oh my gosh is that place divine! I had dessert for lunch. LOL. I mean, who could resist Nutella, banana, strawberry AND Bailey’s crepe! I also got to try...

Suddenly, I’m all over the place! That is why I haven’t really written much. Tuesday night, I led my fearless coworkers out to an early night of drinking at the Library Bar. It was so GOOD to be home! 🙂 (Well, we WERE going to the tres chic Edison but they were closed for private party.) In addition to our crew, we made some new friends from that Big Bank Across the Street. The gentlemen came to our event last month and a few contact emails later, they were inviting us out to drinks and vice versa. And voila! Instant...

Brandon mentioned that IF we were really really good and eating in a lot more, we could possibly afford to have a maid service to come in once a month for a thorough cleaning of the place. I mean, we pick up after ourselves and clean the house on a semi-regular basis. Not Martha Stewart tidy, but cozy. Neither one is a clean freak and we all know I only dust like twice a year…right? So, once a month of professional deep clean is a good idea? What do you think?...

I decided to start a new categories on the blog, “Hobbying”. Then I got to thinking, just exactly how many hobbies do I have? Does anyone have this many hobbies? I mean, if they define what I do as a hobby. Ah! Dilemma from the weirdest corner of my mind! MSN defines hobby as “enjoyable activity: an activity engaged in for pleasure and relaxation during spare time”. For sure, I do have a few honest to goodness hobbies: #1 Blogging.Duh! 🙂 I blog here, there, over there, and now there too. I love it! I mean, I get to write...

2 new ones for yours truly. First, following the footsteps of Pondering Mumbling, I started a blog at the Nation website. That’s Thailand’s English language newspaper I used to write for a long, long time ago. I’ll be about life in the US v.s. in Thailand for a Thai expat. It’ll be more impulsive than my entries at Thai-Blogs, but ought to be entertaining. We’ll see just how long I can keep up with that one. So, I’m not going to put it on my blogroll just yet. Secondly, I have purchased the fabric for my Halloween costume. Yes, my...
