Tales of Thailand
As some of you may know, for the past 10 or so days I’ve been in Thailand. A handful of ex and current Interzone employees made the venture over to Bangkok for Nick and Heidi’s wedding last weekend. And by wedding I mean Lustral Ceremony.
It all went smoothly and I’m sure Nick and Heidi will enjoy sorting through the million or so photos taken by their paparazzi crew. I haven’t been to a wedding before but it felt like a disco with the strobelight consistency of flashes. That’s normal, right? Either way, I thought it was apt to swing my jacket around while dancing on the chairs. Other people thought it was less apt. But srsly, there was no chair dancing.
There was ~wiggling~, but no chair dancing. Not even from the stripper who emerged from the lustral ceremony cake. We didn’t get time to throw a buck’s night so thought we’d kill 2 birds in one stone. I kind of expected she’d dance on a chair, though. Maybe she was impaired by her lack of legs… But don’t think this make her any less mobile with those massive gorilla arms.
This girl was a slight anomaly, but overall I found Thai women to be incredibly attractive, even the ones that don’t take their clothes off for money, which were quite abundant in Bangkok after dark. In fact, we couldn’t find a club without hookers the night I went drinking with the boys. We must’ve been in the wrong area because it just seemed really seedy and there was a severe lack of other tourists. Although, I’m sure the tourists that were there would argue we were in the right area, but discussing zimmer frames and pennywhistlers didn’t really interest me so I refrained from engaging the predators in conversation. Or ‘conservation’, as the Thai tourguide Matt and I met in Chiang Mai would say.
I didn’t really get into the Bangkok nightlife, but we spent most of our time there shopping. I only took 3 pairs of shorts, 2 shirts, and one pair of shoes, then purchased a new wardrobe over there, including a suit (for the wedding), 3 pairs of shoes, about 20 shirts and an incredibly wanky jumper.
Maybe I’ll post more adventures and lols later, but for now I need to rest.
