Chalerm has gone to Anyburi to visit his grandmother. I miss him terribly. This is strange. Am I addicted to him? I haven’t missed anyone like this since I was a kid and missed my mother when she was away.
I spoke to Chalerm today on the phone. He said I can go to Pattaya so I don’t have to sit home alone. I said I am not sure. I could go but money flies when I am in Sin City.
The aquarium is leaking. So this is why there was often water around it. Poor Chalerm has tried to hide this from me. This explains that guilty look on his face when I asked him one day where the wet mess came from. He has bought a leaky fish tank and is hoping I won’t notice.
But now I have noticed. With customer service being what it is in Thailand I don’t expect anything good will come from going back to the fishmonger in the soi and try to get him to honour the “warrantee”. Not after three weeks, anyway. Maybe if we had done it the same day.
I looked at other thanks in a shopping mall. The first tank was 350 B. 990 baht can get us a bigger and nicer one. I consider buying a new aquarium and putting it up so Chalerm can be surprised when he comes back.

I think getting a bigger tank would definitely help on your fish problems. The look on Chalerm’s face, however, might be “a bit” negative when he notices your surprise…

Silom:
Caring for someone and “missing” them when they are away is not an “addiction” it is one of the sure signs of a healthy, committed relationship. Learning that we have included someone into our lives at a level of concern for their well-being and happiness means that it’s time to accept that he is a significant part of your life. Reading of the ways in which you and Chalerm continue to discover each other and grow together keeps me checking daily for progress reports. BTW I think that a new tank would be a lovely gift. There is no need to make mention of the leak, just another way to do something nice for him.
All the best.
