I know I should write something. I have simply been too busy lately, playing Shogun: Total War. Last night, however, as I had one remaining province to conquer-- a province filled with over 12 000 seemingly indestructable ronin, my line died out. I had no heir. I was the last daimyo left too-- so I guess in that universe, Japan probably would have ended up going communist.
That frees me up to go out to the I.P. with some coworkers. The new Korean guy at our front desk wants to take the new foreign teachers... but I think he wants me to take him at the same time since I don't think he knows where to find it.
This has also been one of those periods of time when everything seems to fall apart or break. My watch battery died. I lost my old Boy Scout Swiss Army knife (yes, I had kept it in my pocket ever since I was a Boy Scout). While I was searching for the knife behind my bed, I accidently pulled out the wires from my phone line and had to replace that too... On the flip side, It's also been one of those periods when I get emails from people that I haven't heard from in months. Almost all at the same time, last Monday.
One last note, I am reviewing contracts for next year and without letting the cat out of the bag, I think I am going to have to change the name of this blog from Kyungnam Journal to an as yet undisclosed Korean province's journal. Current plans have me moving to the big city (1st most populous in it's core) by mid to late December. These plans also open a window for a trip back to Canada sometime around or before Christmas. While it's not a certainty that I will volunteer to spend 46 hours in a plane over 2 weeks, this is an official early warning heads-up.
