Well, last night we had a Meeting of the "Moms"... and "Dads" + one little sister at Ruby Tuesdays, It never really struck Joseph and I as odd that our parents had never met... I guess mainly because My parents would invite us to do stuff, and his parents would invite us to do stuff, the distance between Wake forest and Raleigh just seemed big enough that it never occured to us to formally introduce them.
Upon deciding to move to Korea, I know for sure my mom wanted to at least meet them... I think mostly so she would have someone to commiserate with over coffee one day! I think they bonded over crab cakes, salad and missing us before we had even left.It was a very plesant evening ( save for the computer drama had at best buy... which may be another blog entry entirely) and I am glad they got to meet and got along so well. Two IBM dads, and two nervous moms... it was as nice an evening as I hoped it would be. Back to the best buy drama....Needless to say I have been the proud owner of several crappy laptops recently, but hopefully since we abandoned the netbook idea and went for a different brand mid-sized laptop that was on sale, that problem will be solved. *crosses fingers*Now I just have to convince joseph to set up the computer for me one more time ( since he has done it three times previously) I have been reading quite a few other blogs for fellow Geoje Island ESL teachers and have come across more than once the fact that when in relationships Koreans tend to dress alike... on purpose.... Joseph and I however rarely have that problem ( I am not such a fan of Hawaiian shirts and joseph thankfully would not be caught dead wearing girl jeans)
