    A. Riding a freight train from Midwest to California. 3 day trip, very crazy.

    B. Taking a motorcycle trip to a small tribal village in Thailand, smoking bong rips with a Buddhist monk, slaughtering a pig and eating it raw, drinking homemade rice hootch until blacking out. Hiking around drunkenly accidentally ending up in Burma, running away from the Burmese military. Them chasing me until I got back to the village.

    C. Getting bitten by a unknown spider in Nicaragua, swollen, blistering boil, feverish, infection. Taking a bus to san salvador, then quezaltenango Guatemala, doctor cutting a blister open and pushing out the puss, excruciating pain. Then after days of it not healing, going to a local hotspring, dunking my arm in steaming hot lithium water, and basically watching the infection fall out in one massive puss ball leaving a gaping hole in my arm.

      Your adventures seems to be growing in adventure and danger. I would take a break and have a staycation somewhere.

      I didn’t even know hot lithium water was a thing. I’m guessing there are some benefits, but I wonder what happened to make the puss ball fall off your arm.

        I’m old now, I don’t even drink beer anymore. I don’t go somewhere unless I already know someone there. My adventure days are behind me, hopefully. Thanks tho.
