Woke up this mornin' feelin' fine
There's somethin' special on my mind
Last night I met a new girl in the neighbourhood, whoa yeah
Somethin' tells me I'm into something good
(Somethin' tells me I'm into somethin')
She's the kind of girl who's not too shy
And I can tell I'm her kind of guy
She danced close to me like I hoped she would
(she danced with me like I hoped she would)
Somethin' tells me I'm into something good

Good morning everyone! A mug of Twinings "English Breakfast" tea beside me, and a big bowl of rice with yellow chicken curry, two hard cooked eggs, and a length of Northern Thai sausage, all bought from the street vendor outside the door of my building. My first 'local' breakfast, and it was hard to decide as there were so many choices on offer. Several vats of different curries and concoctions (that I have absolutely NO idea of what they are) to choose from, all bubbling over burners, a half dozen different sausages and fried chicken cooking, different omelets, etc.,etc. My breakfast choices came out to the grand total of 20 baht. About 65 cents American.... I think I can afford to live here. And there were four different vendors selling side-by-side. I only looked at the first one so far!

Just keep in mind what the body does with the sugar is doesn't 'use' for cellular function....

Me too, me too! Congratulations, LatinandGreek! Best wishes to little Alex. And best wishes to you too, with your thesis. That was one of the most trying periods of my academic life!

There is no question about it; blue does taste best. Do you remember when they removed the red M&M's because of the Red Dye #? scare?
Another mug of tea, then sit back and wait for the delivery men to start showing up. I did a LOT of shopping yesterday... filled the kitchen with new appliances, (I actually have counter space for appliances!!!) some storage chests, 10K of kitty litter (why carry it myself when I can include it in the delivery for free, right?) and a host of other toys. This is fun!
