Things to send in to the Seoul-based US Embassy to renew a passport:
• acceptable passport photo
• a filled-out DS-82 form
• $130 payment (yikes), paid via card or money order
I have my current passport, and while I thought I'd gotten passable passport photos from one of those little photo booths you find in subway stations, this site says the Korean standards are different from the US standards. Specifically, US-passport photos have to be square, 2" × 2" or 51 mm × 51 mm, not rectangular as with the Korean standard. Luckily, there's a photo studio in my building, so I'll pop down there tomorrow and have a proper US-standard photo (more likely photos) taken.
In other news: still no word about whether our team can work another six months. I guess we're waiting for the CEO to, uh, get better. I dropped off some bubble wrap at the office, took care of bank and contact-lens stuff, and I'll be lugging over my cardboard boxes on Saturday morning (I have a get-together Saturday evening, so I need to be back at my place for final food prep). Sunday will be devoted to carting my boxes back to my place, with help from the boss and his SUV. One way or another, we're outta that office.
