I run a "G" rated Blog - but some questionable situations - even those that are over the edge - are at times too funny to ignore. Besides once I see the humor in those moments all I remember is the laugh.
My apologies in advance - and now that I have your curiosity......
The pic you see was taken at Emporium which is an upscale department/apartment complex, located across the street from my serviced apartment. I was looking for shaving cream and saw this display of designer toiletries. At first I thought it was another example of Thais stretching English. Like the clothing store named "Previously Loved". But this is such an example of bad English in so many ways. I was amazed and also laughing when I thought of all the possibilities the consumer might have from buying and using these products.
My Friday nights are fairly open. Only one regular conference call back to KC - and at a decent hour 8 PM. Earlier this week I was having conference calls starting at 8PM and lasting until after Midnight. One night it was followed by another call at 5 AM the next morning. Hopefully that will be rare. Wed nights I have a regular call from 10-11PM my time and on Thursdays a regular call starting at 10:15 PM until Midnight. At least for 5 weeks. I only have 7 more to go, so maybe my last two I can get some sleep.
People in the KC office think I don't sleep. They don't know I talk in my sleep.
I'm still finding ways to try to use the Thai that I've learned. I only made one mistake today. I asked the Taxi driver if he sold Eggs instead of giving him a street address. We both a good laugh - he at me. I shut my Thai up after that.
I need to run. The "Iron Maiden" (washer/dryer combo unit in my apartment) is beeping. It has been 5.5 hrs. since I fed her 5 white shorts and 1 pair of white socks. 5. 5 hrs to wash and dry. I bet they are still damp. Good thing this is a 3 day weekend. I have 5 pair of dark socks to wash and have dry by Tuesday AM.
