Back in CO
Well...I am back in the USA and the state of CO...at least for the next three weeks.
After being in Atlanta/Savannah for the past week...I feel like I need to detox my body of all the greese I ate. I have been feeling a little dumpy lately...don't know if it's because I haven't been exercising or that is around the monthly. Could have something to do with both.
I think that I have got to find some sort of exercise regime...I am not very happy with myself at the moment...but with the upcoming surgery...I am not very motivated. I have started looking into gyms again...we shall see.
Work has been driving me batty...for some reason the boss units have gotten a little micro-manager like...for gawd's sake just let me do my job!!! Ok...I feel better.

Survived the Weekend...
Well...I made it through another White family function...barely. I have come to the conclusion that I am officially done with these sorts of things. I am at a point in my life where I do not need to be told what to do, where to go, what to wear, etc. I am pretty sure that Joel and I have our own jobs, pay our own bills, live our own lives, etc...without the help of our parents (unlike some of our siblings).
The latest is that I was told what I could/could not wear to a wedding that I was a guest. I was not in the wedding in any way...yet was told I could not wear a formal wedding appropriate sari...yeah right...I guess it would have been more approaprate to wear a wife beater with no bra, ragged blue jeans, and flip flops. Joel proceeded to veto the former outfit and I wore the sari anyway. I guess trying to introduce and break cultural boundries just isn't the cards. Although most of Joel's counsins, aunts, and uncles loved the sari.
Joel and I are now off to Houston for a traditional Philippeno wedding...I brought Joel a traditional men's pineapple cloth barong (shirt) back for wedding. I will be wearing a traditional Indoesian skirt and scarf (ok...not Philippeno, but hey same part of the world).

Back from SE Asia
Geeze...what a trip. I was all over SE Asia for the last three weeks...Singapore, Jakarta-Indonesia, Singapore, Phuket-Thailand, Manila-Philippines, Kyoto-Japan. Lots of work and very little play.
I will try to get all the pictures posted this week...at least before I get back on the road for the next three weeks or so.
Good to be home...now I need to get back to the biking thing and get off any weight I thought I might put on over in Asia.
