노량진 시장

Last night C came over to fix my picture files from the fish market, with two giant cans of rubbish Korean beer in tow. I've gotten way too used to rubbish beer. Of course, as I predicted, he placed one finger on my laptop and began to freak out about what shit condition it was in. No computery type person has ever touched a single one of my computers without looking like they suddenly wanted to cry. He tinkered around for a while, vaguely explaining all the things he was doing (which desperately needed to be done) and then laughing at my blank expression in reply. Something about reformatting. I said 'hell no' to that one.

"Why?"

"It's really boring!"

"But your computer is so slow.... and it's a good computer. No reason for it to be slow."

"It's okay. I'm a patient person."

Luckily, I had predicted the fact that once he got a look at my ragtag neglected orphan of a machine, he would be staying a lot longer than an hour and had bought some supplies of my own. Drinking beer and fixing a computer. What a Friday night.

Anyway, here are some of the photos.

Those pictures are lovely! Korea looks fascinating. You should definitely put more pictures of Korean life up!

Igniz... for some reason, it seems much smaller when you're walking through it. Most of that is just prep/storage space. But it's still pretty big. I bet you're right though -- probably not the biggest.

Sir Billy -- I'll do my best. Definitely trying to take more photos these days.
