Greetings,

I’m sick and sleep deprived. Read this update on “Sugar is Killing us All, It’s Poison!” That Lipton Iced Tea addiction is killing me so I quit cold turkey. Couldn’t sleep until 4am yesterday, FML.

The Doctors just gave me a cocktail of pills for my fever, throat and sleeping problem. I’ve told you countless times I enjoy the company of Doctors and nurses of the female variety, indeed.

Woke up early and had breakfast, cruised around and my buddy got some custom made kicks, you can get ANY TYPE of shoe / model ever at different quality levels made. The final product? Great. When I say anything, I mean anything AND MORE.

Had lunch with a family today who runs one of the oldest tailor shops on the main drag. It was good, I’ve never eaten so much for lunch in all of Asia. They also told me where I could get a nice room for like $200 a month, no wifi though so I’d still rather pay double and I kinda like living in a nice hotel, it has always been a dream of mine, sorta.

Went for a leisurely jaunt and ran into this tall redhead from France. Said “Good day to you” she said “are you selling something” I said “no” she said “oh well thank you”. I then walked over this bridge and around, when I came back over the bridge ran into her, we chatted and walked around for a few hours and eat ice cream.

In this one dirt road, these dogs freaked on us, she was all “no big deal”. I’m like “big deal” picked up rocks and said I was going back. They started barking and running towards us, I know better…

She doesn’t like Vietnam, says the people are rude. Look you, whatever you think manifests, big time. When I was with her, I ran into more rude people then ever, not like I care, there are 90,000,000 people here. Just like sadly, when people walk with me, they run into sketchy dogs, sigh.

When I should have napped, I knocked to see if one of the girls who makes all the fashion decisions for the others was around, wasn’t but another girl I’ve been hanging out with was there. We looked at fabrics then went back to ice cream place and drank ludicrous amounts of coffee and had a most stimulating conversation.

Later, we all met up and had a 7 course meal for $4 haha. The courses were small, I picked a horrible meal and had not 1, 2, 3 but 7 crappy dishes, then again it was the peak of my “I am feeling horrible” so we came back here, I could have gone to bed an hour or so ago but the market was rallying so I sold a bunch of stuff.

I don’t trust this market at all and I want my cash back so that’s what I’m doing, makes sense yes? It’s basically a place for distinguished degenerate gamblers unless you do lots of research. Until I settle down somewhere, I’m just raising cash.

I took a multitude of photos and videos and have uploaded some. I’m getting back to a “normal routine”. Tomorrow, one of the ladies we’ve been hanging with will help me choose some new fabrics as she’s the “fashionista” of the group and I’m just a guy who wears white T-shirts and wants specialty cargo shorts so I can help free men around the world from the geekdom of money belts.

I like it here, it’s nice. I’ve been in Asia a while, how do I know? I get so cold when it’s like 15 degrees I need to wear a long sleeve and a tuque.

I’m looking forward to extending Visa and taking a break from traveling a bit and getting down to some business, even if it’s just working on older projects of mine. I went on this trip to find opportunities, I may have just found some.

I need rest, good night.
