I met a rad gal with an equally rad name. We have odd things in common and I can only hope that I will be half as cool as her someday. Mia #2 appreciates funny t-shirts, large wild cats, street food, House of Male, and crappy cell phones (we have the same model). She knows Nye's and Bryant Lake Bowl. Enough said.
Adam was lucky enough to have his company graced by a couple of wives last night. The name thing never is less than entertaining, especially with meeting new Thai people. I got in trouble once when my American friend introduced me to his Thai girlfriend and to her Thai ears it sounded like, "This is my wife" and I smile and say, "Nice to meet you. I've heard so much about you!" A couple minutes later she was whispering to him angrily and punching him in the shoulder. I knew exactly what was going on and I had to clear things up. I said, "No my name is really Mia. I'm not his wife, don't worry." Now we're all friends and I don't look like the polygamist wife and she doesn't look like the mistress.
