A Quick update

This next week looks good. It entails some more manual labour, a second tryout for the Japanese Candy commercial in Bangkok for teamate Josh and myself. I guess there's a 95% chance that I'm going to be in it. Then we have a trip up North to hill tribes for the weekend where the girls will perform their fire dancing feats of wonder and we will have to face up to the realities of squat toilets and sponge baths in the pursuit of cleanliness.

Yesterday was Sunday and we anointed, commissioned, and officially commerated the openining of the new orphanage. It was a nice affair, especially after pouring so much energy into the place prior opening. It's really rewarding too when you hear the childrens stories who live there and see there faces. Has anyone had there heart broken lately? I know I have. Also my video cameras battery charger is not working and that has been a punch in the stomach because I was just starting to get rolling on the documentation of our travels in moving picture and sound. Looks like I'll just be taking photographs unless I can get it fixed or replaced.

Well I hope everyone is having fun. later

    ODB IN THE THAILAND ODB IN THE THAILAND!!

    Cool blog man, I will definitely have to see the Japanese Candy Commercial if you are in it.

    btw -- I have a blog documenting my trials and tribulations of living amongst the LIMEYS. ernieweaselfat.livejournal.com

    Sorry I blew you off on MSN, muchacho, if I had known you were in Thailand, I would've postponed the meeting...

    Ok, I couldn't have done that, it wasn't my meeting to postpone. Now you have exposed me as insensitive AND a liar. Whatever will I do?

    Take it easy bud, will be looking forward to reading your Thai adventures.

    Your pal,

    Rob

    first off, i love squat toilets. they make you feel alive..just joking, but they do require more skill and dedication than do american ones. anything to get our minds in gear is good in my opinion!!!hahah

    hearts are always being broken. i think i break my own contintually.
    sad to hear that yours is in need of mending.
