The One Without the Fridge
So during my 7 month exile from Korea, the fuse in my fridge blew out! Ugghhhh. If it hadn't of blown, it would still be pretty bad in there, but the freezer would've been okay. Oh my god, there was meat in the freezer, hotdogs and veggies in the fridge. I swear I heard noises coming from it. It was definatley a little brother's science experiment gone awry. Vincent Price would have loved it!
So I finally got the courage worked up to open it. (plus I had a baseball bat ready to back me up)Holy #### Batman!!! Did it ever stink! So I didn;'t open it again for quite a while. I ate out a lot. Well, I finally would do little raids on it. I'd open it up real quick and squirt some bleach in it just before I went to work. That did the trick. I was finally able to get in there and clean it up. I just threw away all the containers and held my breath. Lots of scrubbing. A few days to air out. Now I'm ready to plug it in! Nothing! Jinkies, all that work and ####! It was a fuse. A 250 volt 6 amp fuse. should be easy enough you's think. Well, this is Korea buddy, thing ain't gonna be THAT easy!
So I scoured my 'hood all night Monday. wasting my time. I have a gig to play soon and my fingers are all rusty. Haven't played bass in too long. Tuesday nite I go to the special area of Seoul with all the electronics and electrical stuff. Another waste of a night, I can't believe no one has this #@*&@% fuse! Must be a stealth fuse! Went all over the neighborhood where I work, nuthin'! Wednesday night another fruitless search of my hood, looking for all the appliance repair shops, still nuthin'! and three nights I could have spent more time practicing! Grrrrr! It's not like Seoul is a small town. It's frikkiin' huge! takes an hour to get anywhere. That's why I'm so pissed apbut going everywhere trying to find this little sucker. So I'm gonna spend Saturday night going to the other secret special appliance area of Seoul.
Maybe I'll get lucky.......
