My coworker Pek has a friend who is a reporter at the Chicago Tribune who was looking for people in the Chicago area who watch Korean soap operas for a story she was working on. Dallas’s aunties are big fans so I passed the information along.
Last week Aunty Gail emailed us to let us know that the story was out in the paper.
Aunty Gail was interviewed and appeared in the story. She was excited they used her name and interview but said she could have done without them publishing her age!

Last night Scott and I were invited to speak at Columbia College. We were joined by Jessa Crispin of Bookslut fame. It was nice to finally meet her.
