Rain

Ugh. Sorry about the lameness of my posts recently. The weather's been terrible, and since my main mode of transportation is my feet that tends to mess things up.

Today I really tried to go a to a museum (I figured if I could get inside, I could learn about Korean culture while staying dry). I packed an umbrella from the cabinet, but when I exited the subway station it was barely drizzling. Everyone had umbrellas up, but not me! I walked in the rain like the proud Oregonian I am. Well, eventually I realized that I had no idea where I was going and the rain was getting worse, so I grudgingly pulled out my umbrella.

It was tiny and flimsy. Apparently my reliance on Dad's enormous golf umbrellas has made me forget that not all umbrellas are created equal. I wandered around for about an hour and a half getting cold and wet, and never once did I even see a roof in the distance that might have belonged to a museum. I have a high tolerance for being lost (I kind of have to), but being lost in the rain and cold is just unnecessary, so I bailed at the next subway station I found.

So, yeah. Lame. But it's supposed to clear up by the weekend, so hopefully we'll be back to regularly scheduled programming.
