Here I am on the skybridge between the Petronas Twin Towers. Petronas (an oil company) lets around 1500 people go on the skybridge 6 days a week (no Mondays). I had to be in line by 8:30-ish that morning to ensure I got a ticket, but I hear that if you want a ticket on…

A break in a local Malaysian coffeehouse…
One of the Petronas Twin Towers
(For the record, it was impossible to get a picture of both towers from ground level, so my pictures of both towers are actually taken from our hotel room window in KL)
soooo, Facebook…
So I just made the mistake of pulling up the list of everyone who is on Facebook who graduated from Ben Davis High School in 1995, just to see who is on there. There are TONS of people. My graduating class was somewhere around 850 people, including the January graduates and the people who went…
Here is an egregious post about the lovely massages
Hmm. While I was on vacation, I had: Two table massages, one with a body scrub One reflexology foot rub One upper body chair massage One back only chair massage One FISH PEDICURE I should really have tried to pamper myself a little! (ha!) Anyway, the two table massages were at the hotel and were…

Plus, wearing socks is not as exciting as I’d remembered) So, Langkawi Island. Langkawi is an island (really?) off the west coast of Peninisular Malaysia. The flight from…
Malaysia: A Look Back in Humidity (Pt. 4)
(I’d better make this quick, I just took more cough syrup, mmm) Anyway, the last time I wrote about the trip I ended with the Saturday of the first weekend. Sunday 11/9: Swam in the pool with Gene. Malaysia is not a big tourist destination for Americans. One of the craziest things about the trip…
mmm, codeine…

Hoooooome!
We are now home, back in Cheesecake City. Loved Malaysia, loved it. Loved the wacky currency, loved the insane cabbies, loved the easy access to chicken satay. Fugging THRILLED to be back in the states! More tomorrow!
