A Wife, A Son, and A Mountain of Luggage
A Wife, A Son, and A Mountain of Luggage
07/21/2004 04:49 PM
On Sunday, my wife and son returned from Korea. They also
brought a mountain
of luggage, two full carts worth. Since my wife and I already
had more than
a decade of arguments over her seemingly unbreakable habit of
moving mountains across
oceans, all I could do was sigh and hug.
My wife and I are on the extreme opposites when it comes to
luggage. I despise
luggage so I travel very light.For a month long trip to
Europe, I
would take two underwears, two pairs of socks, two T-shirts, one
jean, one slack,
one jacket, and a pair of running shoes. Since I am going to
be wearing one
set of everything plus the jacket and the shoes, the spares could
fit comfortably into
a small carry-on. If the jacket has big pockets, I could
travel without any
bags but I use the carry-on to avoid getting grilled by immigration
officers.
And on my trips, I rarely buy anything I have to carry. If
it's something big,
I ship it.
My wife, on the other hand, carries everything.Her annual trips to
Korea
usually starts with increasing shopping activities a month or
two before the
trip. In buying her gifts, she ignores logic
completely. I have seen her
buying goods made in Korea as gifts to take back to Korea. On
this trip, she
brought back goods she bought at Costco in Korea, goods made right
here in California.
She said they were on sale over there and saving a few bucks on
pots and pans made
perfect sense to her. Oy.
And much of the luggage was food. For example, she brought
back two boxes of
ramyeon, dry noodle in a cup. Of course, our local Korean
markets sell them
by boxes too but my wife said these are fresher. Fresh
instant noodle?
Arghhhh!
When I was growing up in Korea, I frequently saw a Korean women
carrying heavy stuff
while her husband walked ahead with hands behind his back.
Until I got married
I didn't understand why Korean husbands weren't helping their
wives. Why?
It's because they already had their decade of fruitless arguments
and all of them
reached the same compromise. As for me, I help out despite my
frustrations but
also try to avoid travelling with her to Korea.
Between Mars and Venus lies an impenetrable astroid field of
luggage.

The dial-up mountain retreat
The dial-up mountain retreat
02/01/2005 09:15 PMWith the new year comes new changes and challenges, and for me the
biggest challenge is a return to a dial-up Internet connection. I've
moved to New Hampshire to a wonderful cozy house close to all the
wintry goodness I crave: downhill skiing, ice skating, snow shoeing
(haven't tried this yet but I'm sure I'll like it), and hilly mountain
runs. The setting is idyllic, atop a mountain with our own ski trails
(an old rope tow trail runs alongside our driveway, alas no longer
operational, requiring one to hike back up after a nice schuss down
the slopes) surrounded by tall stands of evergreens and birch trees.
The near-daily snow fall has blanketed the landscape in fluffy white,
while indoors Bodhi and I enjoy the warmth of the wood-burning stove.
And all is peaceful and good, except for the fucking internet
connection.
A return to dial-up after five years of high-speed access is like
forsaking a car for a horse and buggy. It's maddeningly slow and
impossible to adapt to when you know you could be getting there
faster! Added to that is my ISPs propensity to drop my connection
while I'm in the middle of downloading, and I think I may go mad.
When contemplating the move, I had grand dreams of spending less time
online and spending more reading and connecting with the "real world."
But what I've discovered so far is that dial-up doesn't mean I'm
online less. It pretty much means I'm not online at all. I just
connect to download email (which takes anywhere from 30-45 minutes,
twice a day) and then I'm off. I can't really do anything else online
while I'm downloading email or it takes even longer to get the mail,
and by the time I'm done, I've got some phone call to make or errand
to run and off I go. Some people choose to be Luddites, others have
Ludditity thrust upon them.
