I knowтАжI know, what in the hell good is it to write a pre-trip report with absolutely nothing to report on that has actually happened. I mean talking about somewhere youтАЩve been that you havenтАЩt even gotten to yet does seem a bit strange. Maybe itтАЩs the relentless heat here in ChicagoтАжmaybe itтАЩs a mild form of depressionтАжmaybe itтАЩs the joint I just smokedтАжwho knowsтАжbut here goes:
This is a pivotal year for me because after 10 years of bi-annual adventures in LOS X 2 months per stay, I am about to begin a transition where the durations of my holidays will increase to 3 month stays , thus creating a 50/50 balance of my time and energies between work and play going forward. I started planning for this quite some time ago and fortunate enough to have things unfolding as well as they are.
IтАЩm also about to hatch from a cocoon into a butterfly again which will mark another significant change in my adventure plans and lifestyle in LOS in general. The last holiday I spent with Thep pretty much set the groundwork for a needed change. Sad in some regards, although invigorating for the spirit and a decision I should have acted on a long time ago. He seems content with his lifestyle and I wish him the best of luck in his endeavors тАУ but my ship has parted for calmer waters.
So here I am facing the longest stay ever in LOS and for the first time in almost 6 years will be going solo again. Of course I have subconsciously scoured a list of pros and cons involved in this scenario in an attempt to create a sense of balance, e.g., IтАЩll miss having someone next to me when I wake up in the morning (con) тАУ it will be nice to be able to cut a fart before crawling out of bed without getting embarrassed (pro). I will miss watching cartoons with him in the mornings (con) тАУ it will be enthralling to never have to watch another fucking cartoon in my life (pro). I will miss hearing his voice on my mobile when IтАЩm shopping in the market (con) тАУ It will be a relief not hearing his voice on my mobile when IтАЩm sitting in a gogo bar with my hand down some angels underpants (pro). Well, thatтАЩs it, the proтАЩs have it.
I purchasing a swimming pool float to enhance my concentrated efforts at becoming a beached whale at the condo swimming pool which I fully intend on molding to for a few days after I first arrive. I also plan to do some of the things IтАЩve been putting off like taking short trips to see friends in Chiang Mai, Uttaradit, Phrae and Hua Hin (find that boy with the nice ass Smiles).
I visited Uttaradit several years ago with a boy I linked up with on the Thailandout website and had a great time, although always wanted to return solo to delve into the gay social scene a bit deeper than I was able to at the time. Uttaraidt is a university town and has a disco connected to the one-and-only western style hotel in town which is highly populated with limp wrists and welcoming smiles on Saturday nights. I only spotted one other farang in the crowd of hundreds and he was sitting with a Thai girl. I ended up at a table full of gay boys from the university all of whom were friends of my date. One in particular had me drooling in my Singha. His name was Toy (how appropriate) and was studying hotel management. I canтАЩt even remember my dates nameтАж555.
The town of Phrae is a short drive from Uttaradit and ranks at the top of my list for places to visit. ItтАЩs just a small unassuming town, although chocked full of ambience and true Thai culture. The people there are almost overly friendly and the boys are no different. I first visited Phrae during their Songkran celebration тАУ which of course is the time to visit any small town if you have an interest in seeing more boys (doesnтАЩt everybody?). This upcoming holiday I plan to be there near the end of October during Loi Krathong, Thailand's 'festival of lights' which is held annually on the evening of the twelfth lunar month. As IтАЩm sure most of you are aware, visiting small towns in LOS can be pretty boring unless youтАЩre there during one of the national or Buddhist holidays, Songkran and Loi Krathong usually being the best bets.
Last, but definitely not least, are my plans to find a boy from the past with eyes as green as Spanish olives, an ass so perfectly curved that I want to cry when I see it and a cock long enough to wrap around the girth of my neck. IтАЩm also quite sure that if I do find him I will fall in love again. Yes, I will fall in love with his ass and his cock and IтАЩm not ashamed to say it. He doesnтАЩt even have to speak a word and I will marry him as well. Just walk around my condo with that brown anaconda flopping between your legs flashing those hypnotic green eyes honey and IтАЩm all yours.
My Steely Dan CDтАЩs and left over bottle of Astro Glide are waiting patiently inside my trusty backpack just waiting to be pulled from the shelf. 26 September is launch time тАУ wherever it takes me.
