After work on Saturday, we went out to celebrate Lucy and Fritz’s birthdays. We met people at OBS then we headed off to this Dong Dong Ju drinking place in an actual cave. From there we went to OL’55 and Vinyl. It was a tame but enjoyable evening.
The Cave was what a cave should be. It was dark and dreary with water dripping everywhere. You had to be very careful when walking so you wouldn’t slip or bump your head. This button looks like one of those buttons in a movie where if you pressed it, a building would blow up or a nuclear bomb would explode. Fortunately when you pressed this button, a waiter would bring more dong dong ju.
Don’t ask me why a Christmas tree is in this cave. Here I am trying to look cute. A minute later, I cut my leg on something in the cave. Now I have a big gash on my right leg but that’s okay the gash matches the markings from a vampire on my neck.
In Korean mythology, dragons are mostly viewed as benevolent beings related to water and agriculture, often considered bringers of rain and clouds. Inside the cave, we were watched over by a dragon, while the entrance was guarded by another fearsome dragon.
Fritz holds court as he begins his birthday speech with included a declaration of love for Lucy. At this point Fritz was still coherent but by the third bar, he could barely stand. Lucy had to escort him home because he was so out of it. Now that’s what I call love.
Lucy tests fate as she attempts to kiss the dragon. Lucy was still sober here; so what explains her naughty behavior?
Fritz’s gangster friends from Daejon came down for his birthday. Don’t be fooled by their calm and friendly expressions. Apparently they are feared fighters back in Daejon.
Peek-a-boo Lucy. What are you doing in there? With the aid of this window, Lucy could kill two birds with one stone: She could fix her hair in the mirror, and do her business in the squat toilet at the same time.
Drink up! Lucy was desperately trying to catch up with all the early drinkers. It seemed wrong to be semi-sober on your birthday.
