It is not the best (or most romantic) way to spend Valentine’s Day, I know. Christa is in Chiang Mai with Sarah. I’m in Bangkok with Anna. Our first wonderful week in Thailand was spent at the beach. Our second week was spent at our company conference at a resort just outside of Chiang Mai. …

Here’s some beach pictures… Live vicariously–without the sunburn! p.s. Regarding beach reading…I made a bit of a mental error with Hornby’s About a Boy.

Today is my birthday. No, really it’s OK if you forgot. I wasn’t expecting presents. Cards maybe, but not big ones. A postcard is fine, really. (I’m joking, folks.) When it comes to remembering, recognizing, and commemorating others’ birthdays through the giving of gifts–I am THE WORST! I hit the necessary relationships–wife, children, parents, but…

In my opinion if your vacation doesn’t involve some quality time with a good book you haven’t actually HAD a vacation. So as I ponder warm beaches, lapping waves, and coastal blue skies, I make paperback plans. When you are reclining on a beach 5 hours south of Bangkok, you need to have quality, chill-out…
