But it’s okay, I only have a short update.
Today, for dinner (a second dinner, mind you), I managed to accidentally eat an eyeball, and I tried both frog legs (they were good) and turtle (there are some lines that shouldn’t be crossed).
I maintain, though, I don’t like to eat things that look like themselves. Frog [...]

Augh… something is seriously not okay with my insides. Something that started off feeling like indigestion and turned, very rapidly, into traveler’s stomach hit me hard on Sunday night after a very long, bad weekend. I slept it off through Monday and Tuesday and it was just about getting back to normal, when suddenly, this [...]

Happy New Year from 13 hours in the future (by the EST reckoning, which I now tend to refer to as the “Shire reckoning” for ha has).
Today has stacked up to be one of the more ironic New Year’s I’ve experienced on record. As some of you may remember, I have made many posts, especially [...]

It’s been a nutty week or two here, time seems to be flooding by both quickly and slowly. I tell people, “I’m two minds, really, one part of me loves it here and wouldn’t mind staying a bit longer, the other part really misses Kelly and wants to be back with her.” Well, both halves [...]

I just gotta get this out of my system before I can give a decent summary of the Wuhan trip. You have to know what I was pretty certain I knew what I was getting into – the details were not there before this trip started, but the otherwise feeling of uncertainty and “Nah, I’m [...]

I leave for Wuhan in a couple hours – Victor will be swinging by my place at 6:30 to collect me, then we’ll be hustling off via train. I’m not sure where in Wuhan we’re going, or what I’ll be doing, or how I’ll be doing it – I’m sorta just going along for the [...]
