In general, very little of interest has been happening over the last week or so, hence the lack of major updates. I have had trouble sleeping, which means I’m usually feeling too tired for any serious lashing adventures. However, I did have a bit of a nightout on Sunday evening. A few quiet drinks after work turned into a few more. Now, I was really more tipsy than anything else, but I ended up joining the people off the Norrebang. This is essentially the Korean version of a Karaoke bar. Bascially, the setup involves a private room, some cheap Korean booze know as Soju, the stench of old cigarettes. It is quite possible that my rendition of ‘Living on a Prayer’ by Bon Jovi could be utilized against the communist forces of the North. I am a terrible singer, kareoke or otherwise. Even I try a stray croon in the shower, it threatens to unleash the very gates of hell. In the many years I frequented the GUU, I never once did karaoke. However, I have twice visited norrebangs since I have been here and when in Rome…

Otherwise, I am still in a bit of a limbo situation workwise. I was supposed to be having my visa and contract moved to one of the places I work, however chat has basically calmed down on this. The Fleming family are coming out to visit at the start of April, so I will pretty much be here till then. A reappearance in mid April remains a possibility.


this blog has a somewhat misanthropic tone and it be might more pleasurable to down a fistful of paracetamol, some whisky and slowly choke to death while listening to The Cure, but hey whatta you gonna do!
