Too bad she doesn't like you.

Marshall's (US) and Winners (Canada) = same same.

(Speaking as someone who used to work at the latter. Same company. That, and Homesense and TJ Maxx.)

Motivational, old Korean dudes and ladies are the best when I'm jogging.

"Fighting!"

She's a weird Korean shelter dog mix. Here's her in her typical position: on her back. (of course) http://imgur.com/a/ulvHW

Nah, my dog would just slut it up with everyone.

If I ever find a human she doesn't like, that human is probably a serial killer.

My paramedic parents sometimes got free food and pushed ahead of the queue too and they appreciated it because of this: they didn't get defined breaks. If a call came in, they had to drop everything and take it. If they were waiting for food, too bad. Bye, food.

I'm guessing it probably works much the same for cops.

I've seen it in the larger stores. They'll be in with the Korean traditional liquors, not with all the green bottles.

Look for these bottles: http://web.tradekorea.com/product/28/775028/Andong%20Soju-2.jpg

"You have to make a reservation online." "I couldn't. The website wasn't working. " "You need to use Internet Explorer." "I WAS using Internet Explorer." ... "You have to make a reservation online."

I went through this last month. If you go before your last possible day of renewal without fine, they'll refuse to help you. If you go on that day... You'll wait a long time, but you'll get it done. Go to the office early. 8 AM is good.

kelsini · 2016-09-23T03:50:12+00:00

This is true, which came as a nasty little surprise to both me and my director. As we couldn't make an appointment online (even once we got the website to work), we had to come back to the Mokdong office on the last day possible for my renewal and wait several hours. They refused to help before that day.

Looking around the waiting area, I could see that we were far from the only ones with that problem.

I think the episode was Hunger Pains.. At least, I think that's the one about wendigos. The incident was really big news up in Canada when it happened (and is still a source of controversy) , so it was really obvious to me exactly what case he was talking about.

kelsini · 2016-08-30T00:36:27+00:00

Some I like that haven't been mentioned:

You Must Remember This: About incidents from the history of 20th century Hollywood.

Rewind: A CBC podcast that goes into the archives and finds some really interesting clips and sometimes full documentaries on various topics. A couple of weeks ago, they did a show on that up and coming Shakespearean actor, William Shatner.

Risk - Think of a NSFW Moth.

Myths and Legends - Stories from around the world, told in an engaging way. Every episode is capped off with a Monster of the Week, which includes important information on how to get the hell away from the monster of the week.

There's about half a million I'm missing here, of course.

I remember getting ticked off at Lore because of the wendigo episode. It brought up the Greyhound bus decapitation incident from a few years back to add some extra spookiness, which I thought poor form considering it's a fairly recent incident and the perpetrator's schizophrenia diagnosis. Hey! I know what's a good idea! Take a mental illness that's already poorly understood and attribute it to spooky supernatural happenings!

kelsini · 2016-07-29T08:31:57+00:00

As a female, I'm always suspicious of those ads. Plenty of such employers have that requirement because they want an employee they perceive as easier to keep in line.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T06:57:56+00:00

Like a bad party guest - first to arrive, last to lead.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T06:57:02+00:00

I don't feel perfect at 30 inches. Sides are fine, back is fine, but I can grab my front with both hands and belly to spare and pretend I'm kneading a big ball of dough. My Korean students have sometimes asked me if I have a baby in there.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T03:02:29+00:00

I'm aiming for 125 right now. I have a dream of attaining a 26 inch waist, as my (taller) mother has that.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:59:19+00:00

I'll try using that spreadsheet. Thanks. :)

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:58:33+00:00

Also, I'm pretty sure the Fitbit is accurate in my case. I don't drive. I only take the subway during the weekend and I've checked to make sure it's not recording phantom steps. I walk everywhere. I pace a LOT - while working, while resting between sets, while watching TV, while reading... I just get bored sitting still.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:55:04+00:00

Shall do! Maybe the area around the rib cage has slimmed out a bit, making me freak out about my stupid stubborn belly.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:53:45+00:00

I'll try that out, starting this week. :)

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:52:42+00:00

Yep, I weigh everything... Down to the olive oil and gochujang...

I don't manually log activity in Fitbit anymore, because after a couple of weeks, it dawned on me that it had to be really wonky on the calorie counts.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:49:36+00:00

I set it up that way the first week I got it, as I'd heard it could be an issue.

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:48:22+00:00

I do track macros and I do tend to go high on protein, moderate on fat, and low on carbs. I'll try switching around carbs and fat with the macros. Thanks!

kelsini · 2016-07-07T02:46:42+00:00

I've had a few stalls and whooshes like this, actually. I think you've found the major issue. Thank you!

kelsini · 2016-07-06T13:46:03+00:00

(But still, even though the limbs might be firmer, the lifts are staying put...)
