Them's Learning English

Boy: Teacher, you look so Korean now. When you first came you looked...
Me: Beautiful?
Boy: No.

School lunch has been going downhill lately. But tomorrow, blessed Wednesday, the menu lists barbecued duck. I am more excited about it than I probably should be, but I've been eating stir fried kimchi with rice, chicken fried rice, and kimchi pancakes so my meals at school bring me my only thrills. I also found these delightful rice bowls at Emart which have reconnected me with my roots via teriyaki chicken.

Louis, whether he appreciates it or not, is now the center of my life and I really wish I could carry him around in a papoose-like contraption all the day long.

I wonder how comfortable a pair of baggy pants held up only by suspenders would be. They look plenty comfortable and I always see old men wearing them. Lord knows they love comfort!

Here's what I need- some brown linen trousers, a couple of wigs, and a friend in a white business skirt suit. My halloween dreams will come true.

  1. Baby Bjorn, Kari?? : ) As we recall, Kim wore an ivory business suit to her first job interview over eleven years ago - and, yes, she was hired!
