Hoof Hearted in Bangkok volume # 3 | Page 5

The good news is I am saving tons of money on groceries. The bad news is that in order for me to go anywhere I have to be prepared to use public restrooms and I'm walking around afraid to fart. I am fevering every night now. I fear the beer is just not helping. My rear quarters are producing colors that range from bright baby shit yellow, to sickly green and something that looks a bit like blackened seaweed. From now on I won't look back, never look back.

Day 7

Not enough energy to drink beer or get to the remote. I have been provided with a drug called Norfloxyl. Side effects are nausea, rash, and visual disturbance. At 400 mg twice a day it is used to treat G.I.T. infection. I looked it up and at 800 mg a dose it is also used to treat gonorrhea. I guess that is always good to know. I pray this will be the end of the story of my sore ass, my sprints to the bathroom both successful and not, and to waking up in a bed that doesn't feel like I just had a sleep over with sponge bob square pants.

The Bottom Line (no pun intended)

If you are going to kick it in Thailand and eat all the wonderful foods it has to offer, for your own sake bring a boat load of wet wipes! Those things saved my ass (again, no pun), I brought a 3 pack in my baggage from overseas at 80 sheets a pack, and it was a great call.

Baby wipes, a whole lot better then wearing a diaper.
