Monday November 27th

I am still in Korea. I did some more sightseeing here. Walking walking. I had some Dunkin' Donuts for breakfast. And then I went to Outback Steakhouse for lunch (and subsequently dinner because lunch filled me up so much I couldn't eat another thing all day). I have never eaten at these places in America, but I thought it highly appropriate to take advantage of all the American things available. Anyway, I have found that if there is even the slightest chance for humiliating myself, I find it and go for it, gung-ho like. I would write about it, but it's a little too recent for illumination. I can't think about it without whincing still, so it will have to wait. I explored all of the underground arcades that were near city hall and my hotel. I did a lot of browsing. I also went to Namdaemun market and walked around for a while. I bought these ridiculous cards at one of the shops. They have these pictures of this Korean heartthrob and there are places for me to write my name, telephone number, and email address. So that I can hand them out or something. Or they are luggage tags. Completely wonderful. I think I will split the deck with Katie, because I don't think I will ever use all 50 of them and she can appreciate their potential. In one of the underground arcades I found this little art print gallery. I bought two lithographs and a card with a traditional painting on it. Very neat. They were pretty cheap. Well, I'm going to go watch some Korean television so that I can dream about hot Korean men.
