Too Much In Just One Day... Monday, February 27

What I thought I'd do today and what I ended up doing today were so opposite it wasn't even funny. My inital schedule only consisted of meeting up with my Canadian friend but it ended up being all about everything else and nothing about him:(

After only a couple of hours of sleep, I jumped out of bed and off to Incheon Airport Snickers and I headed. It was a two hour ride out there but I was super hyper. The plan was to be standing there all bright eyed and bushy tailed with my Canadian buddy walks out of the departure gates at 7am. When we released something must be wrong, I gave him a call. Turns out something was wrong... something was really wrong. I was wrong. I misunderstood what he had told me and consequently I had arrived a day early... oops!!! It wasn't such a big deal though and Snickers and I joked it off, saying it was a "practice run" for the real day. So back to Cheonan we headed.

I continue to get the sympathy looks from random strangers, as if I was some kind of beaten spouse. Today at the store some guy gestured for his girlfriend to step back and look at me as I stood there at the end of the isle. I had but a second or two to gather some kind of reaction to what was about to happened so I stopped dead in my tracks like a deer stuck in the headlights. I dropped what I was holding, dropped my hands to my side and gave a blank scary stare back that reminded me of the movie "The Children of the Corn".

I had to drop by the hospital today to get the doctor to print out some legal papers for my insurance man. He gave me the third degree about not wearing my nose brace and sent me to the male nurse who sets patients up with things like that. He's a young guy but he too gave me the third degree, asking me where is my brace. I felt somewhat cornered so I totally put the blame on Pyen Chi -- sorry girl. I lied to him, yup, it's true. I told him that "when I was showering my dog ate it". Hey, I figured that if people could get away with saying "my dog ate my homework" than I could get away with saying "my dog ate my nose brace"... hahaha.

Had plans to discuss with 5-Star -- a buddy of mine who runs a luxery restaurant here in Cheonan. I'm planning a Glam Girls Night Out in celebration of the upcoming White Day -- that's Valentine's Day in Korea for us girls -- and it's going to be at his restaurant. We're arranging for a large private room, discussing the possibility of a set course menu and ideas regarding possibly setting up transportation for all the guests. This Glam Girls Night Out is going to be a glammed-up event with a dress-to-impress dress code and a mandatory female date policy. My company Flipside Fitness is hosting it but it's already becoming a highly talked about event so I'm going to have to put a restriction on how many can attend. Can't really complain about that because it's awesome that so many ladies want to join in on my event.

I had a meeting to attend for a new job I've picked up -- a sweet gig that is regards 14 hours a week as full time and that will be paying me to take about 5 months vacation;) Can't complain there. It's out in Suwon though, the only real downfall, so Snickers drove me out there. I met many of my coworkers and we all really clicked. I even scored a hug from one of the girls I had meet during my interview so that was sweet.

Upon arriving home after my meeting, my insurance man dropped by my house to have me sign the official legal documents. I love it how on most of my legal documents here in Korea I simply go by the name Amy -- no middle name, no last name. He stuck around the house a bit and took pictures of Balboa sleeping in my sweater pocket. Great guy.
