Travailing on...
Got my books today. All six classes and sisty pounds of 'em. This'll be a new exercise. But if I get the pain back in my back that's a win they say. Hey, might help me sleep. A paycheck might do that too. Tired of this bed, ayuh. Tired of the stick clacking man but at least I finally positively identified him today. He's selling something. I may have to learn to read Chinese to tell you what. But may kwaan shi, I'll get there. Must have half a dozen characters down already. Out of the three-thousand required for basic literacy. Whee!
And finally sank in today I am teaching at a Korean school. Another wall to climb. O memories of S, first noble truth 'n' all dat. But Seon is most groovy, haven't seen a sign of Chan since I've been here. Who knows?
Not I, not a thing. What are the odds I'll go to Poland? You out there J? Polish friend I met in Ventienne thinks I should. Visas are easy for a Yank in the EU he says. My mission might be accomplished.
Who was it who told me about Chinese ladies throwing one's change on the counter? Phnom Penh... Moskito bar... damn, I'll tell you when the right synapse fires. Anyway, I saw it today. Perhaps I was rude first. But I made Amanda run interference. Was that rude? Well, now she's not teaching me Sunday. It goes that way.
