The 5 stages of relocation/ Thai Phrase of the Day 2

I have no idea what they are... but I must be in phase 2 now.

I'm feeling decidedly melancholy... waiting for the other shoe to drop. Don't even feel much like blogging, though I'm sure there's lots I could write about.

I received Ofoto pictures, thank you, pc, they are great. And I received emails from sr, thank you as well.

I've decided to go with the more expensive apartment... it has a bit more room for visitors, should any arrive at my doorstep :) I'll let you know exactly how much room once I move in. That will happen on Friday. Ugh, another week in this dingy hotel room. Did I mention there's no windows? And the TV is broken also. So I bought a book... "Deception Point" by Dale Brown... the same guy that wrote "the Da Vinci Code". It's pretty good... would make a good movie as well, if done right. Whoever made "Ronin" would be a good choice... a good chunk of the action happens in the dark on a glacier in the arctic circle far from everything. Accentuating the sense of isolation would be a good way to really ratchet up the suspense.

Well, that's it for now. It's about time for lunch... haven't had pad thai yet, I think I'll have some from our local little street restauranteur.

Thai phrase of the day (simple one today): "Kahb kuhn (kah/krahp)" See the first TPOTD for an explanation of kah/krahp. This one just means 'thank you'. If you want to say "thank you very much then you say "kahb kuhn maak (kah/krahp)".
