Killing time in Chiang Mai

So I am sitting here getting all caught up, killing a day before I go see a hand specialist tomorrow. My wrist has been bothering me, so I had x-rays taken the other day. I guess it was good to have it done after meditating because the results were not what I wanted to hear. After 2 years, 2 surgerys, 3 cast, I found out the bone still has a non-union and that the screw has come loose. This news just about made the screw in my head come loose! So I am going to see a hand specialist tomorrow while there is one available. Not sure what they can really do now, but I know it is not going to be what I want to hear. DONT EVER TAKE YOUR BODY FOR GRANTED! It could be worse, and there probably is some good that will come out of this, just not sure what that is yet. So after that appointement, the plan is to head north, go to see the virgin jungle of Laos, maybe get lucky and catch Dengue fever. After that, Viet Nam, Cambodia, then what I really want to do, surf in Indonesia. I also plan on checking out Borneo, possibly the South Pacific, then hit Australia. So thats the plan, although you never know, things can change. On a downer of note, the Budha tells me that I can longer drink beer! I think I am just about to go put on the white suit and start walking around the streets!!!
