Halloween

Home plus is still not open despite rumors and signs that indicated yesterday would be their reopening.

I met a crazy-ish foreigner lady (some weird mix of Western and Eastern European accents) who has been here for 4 years. I was happy to share that New Core is the best source of foreign food in this part of Bucheon

Then I went for one of my favorite meals in this neck of the woods, Spaghetti Story for Deungshim Donkkas(eu) for 3,900 won (about 3 and a half dollars). SUCH GOOD GRAVY! Well not many people were eating it today but the place was packed. While waiting outside for takeout (I ended up eating there after some people left) these outgoing kids came over to look at my phone. The girl wanted to know if my phone had games. Nope. They spoke a little English, I spoke a little Korean, pretty typical except that they were strange kids. At some point they went into this restaurant and came back out and asked, I gathered, whether I had been drinking or was crazy. No on both counts, I indicated (who are their parents to be asking me if I'm crazy, they started it). Then I showed the little girl that I still have plenty of skills around a jump rope.

I think thems is all my stories, cept how I incidentally ran into a friend who was supposed to be meeting for me that I didn't remember agreeing to today or the previous day.

Getting a little sad I can't get through to the new cats, oh well, se la vie, more time to meet them later. Time to take a shower and get ready for all hallows eve in Seoul.

I've been having continued skin problems, seems to be connected with dryness. My best response so far, seriously, has been olive oil. I'm a little mediterranean olive, and I don't care who knows it.
