My good night

My good night...  I have to write this fast, because my good night is quickly becoming my bad night as I haven't finished planning for tomorrow yet...  My good night: I frequent a bar called the Come Inn Bar (soon to be AJ's Bar and Bistro).  It is unlike most of the other bars around here for two reasons.  One: the pool table is what you would expect it to be (many pool tables here are smaller and harder to play on).  Two: the girls don't try to go home with you.  I like this bar.  Tonight I stopped there and played some pool and cards with the staff there.  At one point in the evening, two of the girls who work there got all excited and asked if we were friends.  I was hesitant to respond, I was not sure if they were suggesting that I date one of them or not.  So I pointed back and forth between them and asked if they were friends, and then one of them caught on and said, not girl friends, friends.  I said that we were friends.  Another Thai who frequents that bar told me that I was a good farang (foreigner).  I throw this story out because I am making connections here that excite me.  Friendships with people very different from me, but friendships nonetheless.  The Thai people are incredible.  So willing to share what little they have.  Yesterday I was fed two meals off of some Thai friends' plates.  It was good food, although one meal burned my mouth for an hour after I ate it.  I am in a great mood right now.  I am making good friendships and experiencing the beauty that is Thailand.
