This, that, and the other thing.

1) I made it back from Cambodia and it was one of the best trips I've had in a VERY long time. What a gorgeous, fascinating, welcoming, delightful country. Couldn't possibly recommend it more highly. I'll post some pics once I've gotten my shit together.

2) I have fallen back down into the Afterlife hole. This show is one of the most powerful series I've ever watched. How everyone doesn't know it, how it wasn't a humongous success...well, add that to the list of inexplicable mysteries of the universe.

3) Speaking of mysteries of the universe. HOW THE FUCK IS LESLEY SHARP NOT ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS ACTRESSES WORKING TODAY. Her acting abilities are breathtaking. Her range. Her EVERYTHING. She should be a household name on par with like...Meryl Streep or Emma Thompson or some shit. Fucking travesty.

YAAAAY CAMBODIA! I've been desperate to hear how it was.

YOU MUST GO. That is my report. ;)

It's like Vietnam on valium. Less traffic, cities are smaller, everything is much calmer. Less infrastructure. The food is SUPERB and the value for your money is beyond belief. The boutique hotels we stayed at were SO cheap and so lovely and the staff was beyond welcoming. We did Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and then down to the coast in Sihanoukville/Kampot. The entire trip (including private drivers from PP-SR and PP-S/K cost far less than the flight. And the country is just BEAUTIFUL. If you can stand the unrelenting heat (which, given how friggin hot it gets in Oz I suspect you can) and can deal with discomfort and almost inevitable stomach issues, you will have the time of your life. GO GO GO.
