Home is where the smog is.

We're home. Korea's a pretty goddamn nice place, after all.

It's got to be the fifth circle of hell for those who appreciate the fine art and science of architecture, though. If I see one more mock-St. Peter's onion dome or one more Castle-Auuuuuughh-esque turret on one more purple-painted f--k-hotel, I'm going to run screaming just over there near the couch, then run screaming back.

Not that you folks would actual hear my screams of aesthetic dismay, but I'd tell you about them later.

That's what the web's all about, right?


(Note to self : explain the f--k-hotel reference, and the fact that we did not in fact stay in any of those over the last couple of nights...)
