Points of interest...

Erin and her dad are here right now, and the trip has gone splendidly. The timing couldn't have worked out better, and I've finally gotten to see all the major sights of the city. I will dedicate a post just to her visit when I get all the pictures.
After years of putting it off, I finally got a Buddha for my bedside. This was after hours upon hours of going in and out of antique shops looking for the right color, weight, hand position, etc. I knew if I couldn't find it in the bronze Buddha district in Seoul, then there was never going to be a bedside Buddha for Joe. The street salesman told me "its from Tibet, original not copy, bring you love love, good spirit good love." DEAL.

Also, I had to give a speech in Korean class this week. In my defense, I accidentally left my notebook at home before I went to deliver it, so I had to scrawl some notes on my day-planner before I went up and rely on my poor memory, hence all the "ums." They are laughing, because I said that my teacher is the best, beautiful, and smart.
