Long day for me. Still getting ready to leave in…5 hours. I am impressed what your doing over there. Tell me all about it when I get back. Miss you.<\/dd>\n
16-01 07:29 <\/dt>\n
I am at the airport with Toni. Just bought a cheap corny t shirt. Not enough sleep. Thinking of you.<\/dd>\n

I am in yogya. No joke.*<\/dd>\n
16-01 16:51 <\/dt>\n
I just saw Prambanan and am now at the foot of Borobudur. It’s very romantic. Would be more so with you.<\/dd>\n

A most lovely evening for me. Up again at 4am for the temple. Hope you’re well.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
\n

17-01 18:46 <\/dt>\n
Smoking on the club house terrace at Losari. Alone but for the thoughts of you.<\/dd>\n
17-01 18:52 <\/dt>\n
Lighting over the three volcanos and the call to prayer in the distance. A got a ginger tea and not another person in sight…a pity you’re not.<\/dd>\n
17-01 22:00 <\/dt>\n
Belum. I get 4 hours of sleep first. About to take a got bath. Thinking of you in many ways (and many positions)<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
\n
18-01 06:51 <\/dt>\n
On the train right now. Rice padi for miles. And the ocean.<\/dd>\n
18-01 07:44 <\/dt>\n
You are pretty sweet, so i understand. Cant wait to see, touch and taste your sweetness again. <\/dd>\n
18-01 09:26 <\/dt>\n
I think 42 is a special number. But a bit too many for that office. Still on the train watching a indo kung fu movie. <\/dd>\n
18-01 17:19 <\/dt>\n
Got your message just as i was getting off the train and onto mr Bambang’s motorbike. Am now in his village and will set off tomorrow on 225km bicycle ride.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
\n
19-01 05:29 <\/dt>\n
I am on the highway with 20 indo men on bicycles.<\/dd>\n
19-01 11:40 <\/dt>\n
Now done 100 km and are stopping at a mosque to pray.<\/dd>\n
19-01 12:07 <\/dt>\n
Despite the holiness of this moment with all my friends suplicating as the iman wails above me…i think of all the ways i want touch you. <\/dd>\n
19-01 14:41 <\/dt>\n
Still riding. Starting to rain. 65 more km. <\/dd>\n
19-01 16:57 <\/dt>\n

19-01 18:34 <\/dt>\n
Still in the middle of the jungle. Still stopping to pray. Still on this bike ride.<\/dd>\n

20-01 01:53 <\/dt>\n
I am now in the back of a yellow truck with 14 bikes and 14 men. Standing room only with the wind in our hair. Some are sleeping.<\/dd>\n

Arrived at 245am . 5 hour sleep. Now sittin in middle of fish pond with men <\/dd>\n
20-01 13:08 <\/dt>\n

20-01 15:36 <\/dt>\n
Looking at pictures of you in my head. 48 more hours. Stuck again somewhere in java again. Feel like a hostage.<\/dd>\n
20-01 15:47 <\/dt>\n
Hehe ya thanks. Sorry for yelling but the traffic is hell and i am in hell.<\/dd>\n
20-01 16:20 <\/dt>\n
I have resigned myself and will begin to come terms with spending the rest of my days wandering the roads of java at 5km an hour.<\/dd>\n
20-01 19:34 <\/dt>\n
Still riding.<\/dd>\n
20-01 19:37 <\/dt>\n
I will be ok. Just another day in hell.<\/dd>\n
20-01 21:57 <\/dt>\n
I had no idea how bad an idea this trip turned out to be. Still on the highway.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
\n
21-01 02:00 <\/dt>\n
It just ended. Hell has subsided for now. Just got back. We will do many soft and sensual things together to make up for this.<\/dd>\n
21-01 15:49 <\/dt>\n
I am on a bus to the airport. Was just thinking of you, too.<\/dd>\n
21-01 16:58 <\/dt>\n
At the airport. Surprisingly uneventfull trip though I did almost fight a young man who was being rude to a woman at the bus depot. <\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
\n
22-01 00:12 <\/dt>\n
Survived. See you tomorrow? I am at the school at 10 then another meeting in Ubud after lunch. Will take a hotel room for the next 4 nights.<\/dd>\n
