long time...

....no post. sorry about that! anyways, things here are going alright. my head is starting to clear up. the boogies are almost all gone, and the throatache is much better, but now i can't hear. seriously!!! my ears feel as though i just came home from some loud rock concert. and every once in a while they *pop* like they are going to clear, but no, they stay clogged. oh well.
so, luke and i are having a pretty chill out weekend. we went to the free movies last night. yeah, the movies on base here are free, which totally rules! and the popcorn and soda doesn't cost $5 each, so it double rules! yeah, the movies come a little later here than in the states, but free is worth it. we saw resident evil apocalypse. it was pretty good, but a little scary, and somewhat greusome. but entertaining all the same. :) bourne supremacy starts tomorrow, so we will definitely be seeing that! woohoo!
this korean holiday called "chusok" started this weekend and lasts until wednesday. it is their thanksgiving. and all the people visit their families and their ancestor's graves, and since most of that is all in the more southern part of the country, seoul is really empty now. kinda strange. it's nice though, becasue usually there are WAY too many people driving and honking their horns and trying to run you over. so, on tuesday the kids have no school, but of course, the teachers have an inservice day. yeah, thanks! but today luke and i are going to this "palace" to see some of the chusok festivities and customs with some other teachers. it should be pretty fun.
still no word on the rest of our household goods.... i want my stuff now! (do i sound like veruca salt??) i really would love to send everyone pics of the house and korea and stuff, but all the cables for the camera to hook up to the computer are in the computer box that were were supposed to get already. whatever.
and today is sunday here, which means i'm missing the september birthday party in vegas! waaaaaaahhhhhh! hope you all are having loads of fun! love you!
