I'm doing 43 things
But I had to move away and not give my mother my address. Kind of sad, that. I’ll keep this on my list until I can convince her to knock it the shit off (which is to say forever).

Started leading to petty arguments, which is the opposite of what a friend site should do. Deactivated yesterday. I’m sad that it had to come to this and what that says about some of my friends, but this could be a good thing in the long run.
I might be the only foreigner here in Korea w/o a phone. No phone at all and it is worth it. It is incredibly freeing not being tethered to a phone when I go out. I make plans and stick to them and expect others to do so as well. Holding people to that standard should be the minimum. Enough of this bailing at the last minute because cell phones make it easy to do so. Enough looking for the next best thing. Do what you’re doing; live in the now.
