ahh, here i am again/'
trying to get the pics off my cam and onto flicker.. a bitago, out of fustration i fainaly got a pro flicker acount. eh..
so now i'm busy being fustrated with it..
looks like it's going to take about 5 hours to down load my pics.. i'm sure i'm going to have lots of repeats over and over farom all the difrent times i've tryed and ge\ot sick of wasting my time.
but hopefully once i get the camra cleard\ed i can just do small uploads like i did last time i was here.. witht eh difrance that this next time i should actuly be able to get my phoptos off line ;)
anywas.. here i am in Laos. it took 3 busses, a limozine (over packed minivan) and getting slightly riped off by a tuk tuk.. but i got back to misok guest house where my friends work,
it sems that for some reason vientine is really full of tourest now, and all the guest houses are full. so last night my friend brought me with him where we slept above an internet cafe. i'ver slept in worse places.. but not sure about where i'll be tonight. i hope to look to rent a room here, even if i only use it one month out of the 3 i'd need to rent it for it would probaly be cheaper that reanting a room at a guest house, if there were rooms avalable.. so we shall see. i like laos and wouldn't mind living here for awhile but i'd endup needing to rent a motorcycle, ect etc etc.. so i might be more than i want to deal with right now..
last night my friend deth brought me out, he's funny anlways trying to get me to talk to the Lao girls here.. even if it's just to say "young lady" (in lao) to girls we ride past.. is odd to be in a cluture where it's so ok, just to say hello to anyone, ask anyone what job they have, a commen way to say hello is to ask if you have a girlfriend. lol,
and getting used to the trafic is a bit to get used to again aswell. they ignore all signs, right of ways, ect. you can drive on the sidewalk, right side of the street, left, midle. we almost got hit by a truck yesterday seeing how no one stops at stop signs.. i can't belive last tiem i was here, i was riding around.. lol. crazy.
ahh. i'm at 5% of the batch of photos i'm working on and i'm already sick of being in here.. ack!
suck!
and it failed, i had to restart it.. i've been on the computer now for 3 hours and my brain hurts..
i gotta figure out another sulution... :S
eek, computer crashed, but i just found a file full of old blogs that i guess never made it up.. lol, gues i'll have to do something with them some day..
so anyways, my friends here pulled me away fromt eh computer for a bit to eat with them, so i feel a bit better.. after some critter organ soup and raw bitter beef (lap) and sticky rice.. i'm back at trying to get this to work..
so I don't continue to up load the same pics over and over again i guess i'm going to have to go through all the photos on fliker and try to see whats up and pick out ones that arn't thre yet..
guess i'm not going to geta chance to go to the stadum today to go lift.. oh well, hopefully tomarow..
i'm also going to see if i can hide some files on this computer to try and upload while i'm away.. lol..
so later today a friend is bringing me to go check out an apt they say is in walking distance to here.. maily good so i can walk to the natnal stadum, they have a bunch of classes offered there, which i'd like to check out.. i think judo, akido, boxing.. and a olimpic size pool and weight room.. woot! as long as i can avoid the beerlao, and not get shot, ran over, or imprisoned this town could be good for me ;)
anyways, my brain is turning to jelly so i'm gonna stop babbleing now.. geeze bloging is lame

it sounds like you are happy. except the whole computer thing. it doesn't do you any good now, but maybe next time you should just bring a cheap laptop, and hope that it doesn't get stolen, or broken. I hope you can get that apartment. it sounds like it is close to the things that you need.
Amber says hello. we miss you. blah, blah, blah.
dinner time, bye bye.
