The first mistake I made in Thailand? That was when I took a taxi. I got in a taxi and was on the way to my hotel before I realized it didn't have a meter. We were halfway to my hotel and we still did not agree on a rate and I didn't know what was a fare rate. He wanted 800 baht to take me from Silom back to the Pinnacle hotel. As I remember, that ride cost me in the neighborhood of 400 baht.
Another mistake? I was in Phuket at a Sizzler and the salad bar looked so delicious to me that I had to have just a small bite from it. I took a cherry tomato, a bit of lettuce, a bit of broccoli and some red onion. sprinkled it with cheese and a dab of dressing and that night I was sick as a dog. By morning I was OK but that night I was praying for death.
Another mistake? Phuket again. I was going with the flow and went back to a Thai guys room for sex. In the middle of the fun, his boyfriend appeared and wanted to join in. His boyfriend was not my type at all and I didn't come to Thailand to get naked with farang guys and that event was a mistake.
Another mistake? Letting friends but in when I am trying to haggle with a seller of goods. Often friends will think it is cute to take the side of the seller by telling you and the seller that the price the seller is asking for is fair. In the past I use to give up and then pay the asking price. That was a mistake. Now when a friend butts in and tells me that I am being offered a good deal, I tell them that if the deal is so good they should take it and then I walk away and continue my shopping.
Another mistake? Taking the sleeper train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. Wow! That was a long ride that seem to never end! Maybe it would have been more fun if I had taken the trip with a Thai guy but why would I go to Chiang Mai with a date when I wanted to be a slut... I mean... Butterfly..
Another mistake? Not picking up on the subtle signals the guys at Babylon were giving me to let me know they were interested. I often say that it takes a brick wall to fall on me when it comes to realize someone is interested in me but this one should not have been so difficult for me to figure out. The sad this is that I didn't figure it out until I was back home! LOL
