Roller Coaster
I know I seem to be getting back to the "one post a week" thing and that's not my intent. Life is just happening.
Emotions have been up and down the last 10 days or so. And I hate that. Let me be happy and enjoy it or depressed and get over it, but not this "both ways" crap.
I got some great news a couple weeks ago. I haven't shared it online yet because some people need to be told in person. Bear with me...
This week has been rough because a friend has been going through a very tough time. I won't get into the details of someone else's business, but I do want to be here for him. I'm also feeling bad for one of my overseas friends who's going through a rough time.
The weather hasn't helped. In some circumstances a torrential downpour can be fun, but this is not one of those times. Two days of rain earlier this week, and now it's raining heavy again. Boo!
The rain has screwed up the dragon boat race this weekend. The river is not safe so they have to reschedule. And odds are, they're going to reschedule for a weekend while I'm in Asia next month. I've been looking forward to this for a year and now I'm afraid it'll be taken away.
The rain has also kept me from getting out of the gym and back to running on the road.
Somehow, I'm sure this is Bush's fault.
There's been good stuff, though, like going out last night with my friend Kim and discovering a really good Chinese restaurant (I had shrimp cakes and broccoli and some kind of seafood noodles...my friend is from Malaysia and has a Penang sense of taste in restaurants). then we went to a place that serves chocolate chip bread pudding for dessert and I discovered I LOVE CHOCOLATE CHIP BREAD PUDDING!
Tonight I had dinner with another friend and had gway tio and good conversation, so yay that.
And I'm excited by the fact that 4 weeks from RIGHT NOW I'll be in Bangkok.
Somehow, I think Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanomo Bay is somewhat responsible for my roller coaster of emotions this week,
And I don't even like roller coasters!!

"has a Penang sense of taste in restaurants"
sounds like a food gourmet to me ;-)
i'm sorry things didn't work out well, and i'm starting to think that May is a Bad Month Day, like plunging down the roller-coaster kind of thing.
I miss Six Flags, regardless what happened in Kentucky.
