The Korean BBQ Experience

Went to KBBQ at Road to Seoul tonight with Chris, Johnny, Henry, Joanna, Jon, and Kevin. We ate from 8:30-11:15 PM and had over 30 orders of meat (DELICIOUS, by the way). I feel like I gained a few pounds in one sitting and think I feel my arteries clogging. Jon found a pubic hair on his plate. It was more awkward and hilarious than gross. I think it was the waitress’ nonchalant reaction to being informed of the public hair’s presence. There was a guy dressed in a soju bottle costume. He couldn’t see or walk properly. Drunk people kept running into my chair to the beat of “My Goodies” and “Sexy Bitch” blasting out of the restaurant’s speakers. At 11 PM, the restaurant started playing “So Long, Farewell” from The Sound of Music, and then followed that with “Time to Say Goodbye” by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman. Their not-so-subtle hint to get out was fabulous. All in all… I LIKE! This place may take the crown from Tahoe Galbi as my new favorite KBBQ place.

Paranoid Wife Text-versation

  • 714-XXX-XXX: Who is this?
  • Me: ?
  • 714-XXX-XXX: I found ur number in my husbands phone ?
  • Me: Who's your husband? Is this Alma? If so, hi!
  • 714-XXX-XXX: Ernest and no Im not Alma
  • Me: Oh sorry. I only know one married couple and the wife's name is Alma. Is your family looking to rent a house in Santa Ana? He must have been one of the people who inquired about a house I had for rent.
  • 714-XXX-XXX: No but its okay
  • Me: Okay good luck
  • - What the hell? If he wasn't a potential renter responding to the ad I posted for one of my family's rental homes, then I have NO IDEA why this guy would have my number. That really MUST be the reason and she just doesn't realize it because I got like five calls from 714 numbers (the Orange County area code) over the past couple of days before I took down the ad after the rental contract with a family was finalized.

Random Tidbits

Have not exercised in more than three weeks since coming back from D.C. with the exception of one half-hearted attempt so I thought I’d try again today after days of binging on cereal and Hot Cheetos (thanks Steve). I “ran” about 1.5 miles before stopping since I felt like I was going to simultaneously die and throw up. I could feel the elementary school children judging my huge ass as I plodded by (just kidding… maybe). What a difference three weeks makes!

Also, major tangent BUT since I’ve been lounging around unemployed, I had a Hulu marathon the other day and ended up watching “The Bachelor” and I have to say… AWESOME! Nothing like desperate women fighting over one guy they barely know. Okay, and it’s just set in really pretty places sometimes, and the drama is entertaining. Wait, why am I trying to justify watching it? Since when was I ashamed of liking bad TV?

Had an interview at Disney yesterday. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t. My favorite word lately… ONWARD!

It started out so well. We seemed perfect for each other. Then without warning, you completely changed. You were cold to the point where it made me uncomfortable. I dreaded having to face you each day. From the moment I woke up in the morning to when I fell asleep at night, I tried to avoid you, or at least lessen the pain. But I couldn’t escape. You were everywhere. After trying to put up with it, I just couldn’t take it any longer. It was too much. I didn’t deserve to feel that way any more. So I broke free, I escaped. Back into the open arms of what I’d left behind for you. I remembered feeling warm, safe, and comfortable. I longed for that again. It was a blissful reunion. But less than a week later, I have been betrayed! I escaped, just to find more of the same.

In other words, CALIFORNIA, WHY IS IT SO COLD?! :( I left D.C. and am still freezing! I feel deceived!

Currently wearing one fuzzy sock and searching for its mate… along with leg warmers (hello, 80s!) under my sweats and a sweatshirt over my normal pajamas. It’s so cold I can’t fall asleep under three blankets! What’s a girl to do? Wear a scarf to bed? HMMM…

Went to Philadelphia last weekend. It was COLD as all heck, but still a great time! We stayed at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown and saw some nice sights and ate some good food. :)
