"Quarantined in Korea:" Day 3

Day 3 begins at:

11:30 am: arise from my slumber.

12:00 pm to 1:00 pm: Whip up a little bit of curry and rice and eat some lunch while watching........good guess my trusted reader, its Star Trek: The Next Generation.

1:00 pm to 4:00 pm: Star Trek continues on. I feel myself drawn to the handsome yet rugged Commander Riker, or, as he is affectionately known as, "number one."

4:00 to 5:30 pm: Time spent in fantasy land as the GM of the Texas Rangers. Thats right, GM. There are some long overdue changes that will be occurring within this organization. I'm like Nolan.

5:30 pm to 7:30 pm: What day in quarantine would be complete without a substantial nap...on the couch...after a lot of Star Trek and XBOX.

7:30 pm to 9:30 pm: More Star Trek. Making good progress through Season 2.

10:00 pm to 1:00 am: Introduced to a new brand of genius comedy. The British. New TV show titled "Green Wing." Time spent laughing until I fall asleep.

A good day.

Thanks for remembering the time you spent reading.

"Quarantined in Korea:" Day 2

Welcome. Day 2 begins....


9:00 am: Early wake up call to test drive my new bike

9:30 am to 12:00 pm: Ride previously mentioned bike. Was not aware of how painful (and personal) sitting on a bike seat for that long can be.

12:30 pm to 1:00 pm: lunch. Ate ugly kimbab, and believe me, it is ugly. Fortunately, the taste is the opposite of its name.

1:00 pm to 2:15 pm: Sneak a co-worker past the haz-mat guards posted at my door for a second time. Watch 1 STTNG episode. I must lie on the couch as opposed to sit, as I am still in pain from my personal encounter with the bike seat. Episode involves the recurring character of Q, whom I have come to despise. But Commander Riker saves the day.

2:30 pm to 4:30 pm: Once again, I put on the ring and am whisked away to Middle Earth. This time, I find myself at the Gates of the Hornburg, as I turn away the rushing tide of orc filth. Still finding that I am best suited as an archer, with mage as my backup.

5:00 pm to 7:00 pm: I become incredibly tired from physical activity, and enjoy a 2 hour nap.

7:00 pm to 8:00 pm: Due to the "caloric room" I have created within my body (due to this morning's bike ride) I feel the need to eat McDonalds. I feel this is the best way to make a healthy day end well. Friend and I eat McDonalds while watching Casino Royale.

8:00 pm to 10:00 pm: Casino Royale. Blond Bond is growing on me.

10:00 pm to 1:30 am: I decide to continue my journey through space with Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Commander Riker and the rest of that wacky bunch of space travelers and knock out 4 more episodes. I am attempting to boldly go where no human has gone before, and that is to watch, chronologically, STTNG from start to finish.

1:30 am: sleep sets in. Its been a long day.

"Quarantined in Korea:" Day 1

Day one begins at 11:00 am...on the couch.

11:00 am: wake up on couch

11:00 am to 1:00 pm: watching season 2 of "Star Trek: The Next Generation." Beginning to realize how much of a badass Commander Riker really is.

1:00 pm: ate some rice, curry, seaweed and tabasco (while watching even more STTNG)

2:00 pm to 4:00 pm: Release my inner hobbit and play Lord of the Rings: Conquest on XBOX. I learn very quickly that the hidden talents that lie within my fingertips are best unleased while playing as the archer character, however I do moonlight as a mage.

4:00 pm to 6:00 pm: nap. enough said.

6:00 pm to 7:00 pm: Got lost on the internet. I somehow managed to find myself reading about kimchi...

7:00 pm to 8:00 pm: dinner.

9:00 pm to 12:30 am: Secretly outfoxed the haz-mat guards outside my door and smuggled in friends. Spent the time quietly watching dvds.

1:00 am: Battled the very formidable opponent sometimes known as "sleep" for 30 minutes. Admitted defeat.

Day Over.

Check back tomorrow for another exciting chronicle of "Quarantined in Korea."
