On a High Wire, Dressed in a Leotard, there Wobbles One Hell of a Retard

Well this week has been rather stressful.  I have barely gotten any real sleep -- to exacerbate things, the weather has been hot but I've been reluctant to turn on the air conditioner for two reasons:  a) it's expensive to run  b) the thermostat is set to only one temperature -- freeze-your-nipples-off cold.

Last night a bunch of the Russian "speakers" (ie.  everyone who speaks fluently and.... then... myself) had a small little get together at a pizzeria my friend Mark and I discovered a couple of nights ago.  It's not the best place, but it's certainly cheap (about 3-6 Euro a pizza) and the waitstaff is very friendly and willing to put up with foreigner's bullshit, or atleast, they haven't let on that they're annoyed with us in the 2 times we went there.... in fact, the second time the owner gave our table a round of shots.

Got home a little late last night, later than I had wanted because I wanted to do a bunch of laundry.  I ended up finishing it, I woke up on my own to change out loads when I had meant to sleep through it.  All the laundry is air dried, so I set up the little drying deal to have it dry out the clothes so that I have something to wear today.  Well, a lot of good that did me -- we had a thunderstorm sometime this morning which soaked all of my clothes.  Ugh.

Anyway, today I'm going to go to this festival called something like the Anti-MTV festival -- should be interesting.
