Someone on politicsforum.org (nattering nabob) pointed this out:

"I just found out that today, 05-07-09, is the first of only six consecutively odd numerical dates this century..."

Honi Soit remarked:

"03-05-07

05-07-09

07-09-11

09-11-13

11-13-15

As you can see, there are only five consecutively odd numerical dates (using this particular format i.e. months - days - years) in this century, and today is the second."

I was impressed with this fact and this made the day feel more special.

I did laugh until I cried on this day. Doan Thi Mai is a hilarious woman who does not know the power of her own comedy.

I met two Mormon missionaries and Yukiyo

I put forward some effort to find out what I was doing on 03-05-07, and I got this from an old blog:

All Night

I am working all night. It is going to be a lot of reading. I downloaded some podcasts. Those could be interesting. I might just... Not even listen to them. If they suck.

I just think that sometimes it would be good to interrupt the music with some sort of entertainment.

It is raining today and my legs are wet from walking about, but I really enjoy the rain.

I am kind of laughing on the inside.

The SSG I am working with is cleaning everything, all the time; he is pretty adamant about this. I feel almost shamed because I haven't done much. I just played some Battlefield: Vietnam and listened to a lot of music. Of course, my music listening can be viewed at http://www.last.fm/user/jmverville

Unfortunately I did not meet Suyeong yesterday.

I feel bad that I did not study much Korean.

I met a Russian woman who is half-Korean and we chatted a lot -- this was saturday, down in crazy Ansan with the Sig[ler].

Grant is moving to Taegu.

I am finally going to Daejon this upcoming weekend.

Love ya.

Here are two outdated Korean articles:"

(dated 4 Mar 07)

I then remember 5 Mar 07 was spent awake all night with a Combat Engineer Staff Sergeant. We played Battlefield: Vietnam and talked about his time he had in the Marines. He shared many amusing stories.

I listened to a whole Democracy: Now! podcast that night.

That day I have no memory of after I went to bed and then awoke.

Suyeong was a girl that I had an intense 48 hour period of time with one weekend in September 2007 right after I returned from the United States. I have a very comical story about it. I remember nearly everything from that 48 hours.

Suyeong later started calling herself Soyo. Soyo is the Korean pronunciation of the Chinese characters Xiao Yao (逍遙) which are part of Chuang-tzu's idea of always acting as a free person following the wind of one's heart's desires. She liked the idea and decided to take the name I was planning for a daughter if I ever had one.

She is younger than me and I guess I will think of her as a daughter I sired at the age of 4.

I do remember the trip to Daejon:

We went to 'Hitler' bar and anothe rbar called 'Axis' in Daejon.

At Hitler Bar I nearly got into two fights. I got the phone number of a girl who lives in Ik-san, several hours south of Seoul, and I was interested in her but not enough to go to Ik-san or Daejon ever again.

(later that night I got a handjob. It was just a hand. But there was also a job. So it was OK.)

That is where I was at roughly that time, and those were the events relevant to me at that period of time.

The current events relevant to me.

- Moving Sunday.

- Got a girl named Agi.

- Teaching people for money. earning money. paying bills.

- Pornotarium.

- Friend in the hospital for post operation stomach issues.

- School. Homework. Preparations. Not being in the Army.

- The Book Of Mormon & Fantasy Novels.

I am tired and I have to teach someone in 40 minutes.

Make it a "special day" as I hope you make tomorrow and the next day.

Hahaha

I drank too much yesterday and ended up staying out all night against my plans, through some crafty tale telling.

It was truly odd, but it happened.

이따가 저는 다시 outprocessing해야한다... 물론 난 하고 싶지않다. 오늘 참 이쁘고 난 생각이 많이 있으니까 난 그냥 여기서 계속 앉으고 싶은다.

씨팔.

인생이 이렇게 야. ㅋ.

New Years party summary

Thu, 01 Jan 2009 08:32:09 GMT

(X) Loud, abrasive music.
(X) People getting the shit kicked out of them.
(X) People getting laid in semi-public places.
(X) Self-mutilation.
(X) Valuable items lost.
(X) Vomit.
(X) Broken friendships

It was a beautiful night -- I started drinking at about four PM; I was wretching in garbage cans by 9 PM.

Holy crap, man.

But I did nothing morally wrong and in the end life was preserved.

Home Again, Home Again

Tue, 14 Oct 2008 21:21:08 GMT

It is good to be back.

I noticed immediately that after 30 days nothing has changed but the entire streets had a yearning feeling -- yearning for my boots, for my drunken stagger; the paper cups of coffee never looked so good full of tobacco spit.

늙은 창녀도 아름답게 보였다.

I am excited to be back though I am not sure how the next few days will go in the office. I am not really even sure about anything going on. I am just going with the flow, so to speak, and hoping for things to fall in place.

It was kind of nice seeing all those old faces that make the workplace so bearable. It was a happy reunion.

They even inspected our rooms the very first day I was back. Needless to say, that was not a thrill. I am ready to be done with this Army life. It has been a fair amount of time.

Nearly six years of my posting on this xanga I have been in the Army. Isn't it crazy to think how this documents all of my activities.

Oh, alas, I am home.

But I do say... I loved being in Minneapolis. My other home. It was nice. I was just ready to returna nd tart the partying.

Leaving Soon

Sun, 12 Oct 2008 02:36:02 GMT

In 13 hours I will be on a plane to Seattle hten to south Korea to complete my Army time and learn freedom again. I look forward to seeing all of my friends again.

Minnesota Gophers won. So did the Minnesota wild. So did Brock Lesnar.

I feel ready to have a good time when I get back and to just... Be good.

I've been good now for thirty days.

Done & Done

Sat, 11 Oct 2008 07:05:07 GMT

Saw most of my relatives for the last time for several months to come today and just saw Matt, Ali and Grant for the last time... For an undefinable amount of time.

I do not really know what to say.

We went to Gustaf's and drank huge liter of beer each; relaxed. Took snuff in my nose for the first time. Discussed a lot of interesting things.

I do feel some melancholy.

Vikes Win

Tue, 07 Oct 2008 06:44:45 GMT

Minnesota Vikings won 30 to 27 basically because our defense owned tonight... On several turnovers and other flukes.

I have had nothing to do but I have a chipotle burrito to eat tomorrow. I will miss the chipotle when I go back to Korea.

I think that I will end up moving to China. It seems like a good place and my Aunt Ti really gave me a lot of pro-China propaganda that I swallowed up wholeheartedly. She recommended several universities to me and the possibility of going to those are pretty high.

My xanga has been up a long time and I need to learn a new sense of loyalty to it.

QUICK FACTS, THINK FAST

Sun, 28 Sep 2008 17:55:43 GMT

QUIck facts:

Been hanging out with Matt Kuhlman a lot.
Been growing a beard.
Saw my now 15 year old cousin; she plays the guitar and rides horses and is a conservative who would like to one day become an attorney.
Somehow I ran into Cher and Alex in MINNEAPOLIS, MN; they had overslept while hitching on a train and ended up in my hometown; we met and talked for several hours with Grant Hagstrom. We had met at the Hard Times cafe on Cedar I believe it is. It was utterly ridiculous. We were cordial and it became more and more obvious that we would spend our lives discussing politics.

It was rather moving and I enjoyed it. I feel more political minded today.

Another thing: will be judging some debate tournaments; not going to take a jaunt to Winnipeg this week, I don't think.

Not looking forward to the Army. I actually had a small nightmare about it. Just because... It could suck.
