Dream forgot their name
4:18am ICT Thursday 13 May 2010 (day 14659)
I was supposed to be introducing a band at their first big show, and while I had
seen them perform plenty of times, I knew each band member by name and their hobbies and cats and
dogs I was like, "it's rt's really fantastic to know these guys before they blew up and to be
here tonight at their first big show, and the crowd started building up with excitement, "are
you ready? and I started counting up "one! two! three! four! five! six! seven! " and
thinking to myself ah man I can't remember tehir name!!! and I was trying to read the guys' shirt
in front of me, but it was wrinkled under just at the band's name, I knew the last word of their
name was five, so I just showuted something muffled as the crowd's roar was roaring what waht
FIVE!!!" and then gave the mic to someone else, as we wre all right in the audiecnce giving
testimonials. and once I knew the name, I was like, "aight rewind the dream a bit" and
went back to the counting part, "please welcome, count it down with me ONE TWO FUNK FORCE
FIVE!!"
and it was almost as if I had gotten it right the first time. Nice.

State of My Life Address
I'm in Thailand! In Chiang Mai, more precisely.. I am living in room 1111 of Imm Eco, a
lovely lodge set in a garden of trees and fairies, with a large lovely pool in the back, and free
wifi in my room and free buffet breakfast every morning from 7am to 10am.
I'm studying Thai massage; classes are daily from 9am to 4pm at Sunshine Massage School.
This is my first (of three?) beginner's classes that I plan to take in 9 weeks of training here. My
fellow students are Cyrille, a French guy who's worked as a sports medicine guy for a while, Sylvia,
Italian, with cool tattos, Anne Gaelle, French, Shara, a Canadian from Vancouver, who's quite
attractive with nice smile and bod, and Christine, from Deleware, who lives in the room next to me
(1110), with whom I've enjoyed long conversations about her work/studies at Omega School (?).. and
she's a UU! Wow!
My finances seem okay. I have paid for all my classes, and all my air tickets, I think, and
still had equivalent of $3000 USD left in my Japanese bank. Even eating out for most meals, that
should be enough to cover this extra fun lifestyle. Did I mention I'm paying $300 per month for
this room at Imm Eco?
No girlfriend at the moment.
My computer is set to super-zoom mode cause I have my contacts out right now. I'll take a
picture of the screen.
My iPhone is in airplane mode, and has been essentially since I left the airport in Narita
149 hours ago.
Internet access through Imm Eco is fast and free, but hrequires entering a password after I
take a break from the internets for a bit.
No roommate
I-group numbers had been low, and they cancelled the last meeting on 10 May. Not sure if
they'll have more while I'm (and so many others are) gone
I've considered studying Thai a bit, but haven't done much yet..
Recently did a bit of program tweaking to my Rob Updates code, and am considering dumping it
for a PHP solution called PHP List. But if I do that, I'll want to add in auto-purging email
addresses, and I'm not yet sure how easy that will be.programming
Haven't really listened to music since I got here.
If I lost my computer now, I'd lose this entry and a couple of other journal entries, but
pretty much have all the pictures on my iPhone.
The weather here is hot and humid and I love it. 40 degrees C is the high scheduled for
tomorrow. THe lows are like 27 degrees. I love it love it love it.
Am going to Honkers for the weekend of 21 - 23 for a wokrshop Soness bought me. I hope I
like it more than I think I might. After that, I plan to go to Koh Phi Phi to see Page from PB
instead of missing a day of the next beginner class.
Am considering doing a Vipassana 10 day course in early July cause the school seems to have
a break in advanced classes at that time.
