Almost dead

Almost dead... Caught a cold several days ago and had to stay at home rather than enjoy life during the whole weekend. It was still worse 'coz I was at my hometown and could not have an opportunity to see friends or do as much as I could. And now... terrible cough every 3 seconds, so that I could barely eat my lunch today, nose running and headache turning head into a brick. But still have to stay at work and ... work. AWFUL! I'd prefer to jump to bed as soon as I finish work, but I need to buy pills to stop this cough and pay for the Internet... Ah... so many things to do... Don't want nothing and noone... Wanna sleep and not to wake up, for at least one week... Ah ease my pain! KILL ME!!!

My 'nice' morning

What a ‘nice’ morning I had today! I was fast asleep when George started waking me up, “I think it’s time to get up, come on, come on!” Yesterday I told him to be more firm at doing that ‘coz otherwise I would never get up myself. He sounded very resolved, and I got up and forwarded to the bathroom, slightly rocking on my way. George was still lying in bed seeing dreams. Then I crawled to the kitchen, opened the fridge and took some things for sandwiches. And I was just about to grasp the sandwiches I made when I suddenly looked up at the clock. 3:59. Noo!!! I thought something must be wrong with the clock, and went back to the bedroom and looked at the clock in my mobile phone – same! It’s not difficult to imagine my next reaction, “GEOOOOOOORGE, I WILL BITE YOU!!!” Sure I crashed down to bed right at that moment…

He said he must have seen it in his dreams that it was time to wake up. Very nice, isn’t it? ;(

Rrrr...

Rrrr... When I say, "No" - how can it mean "Yes" I wonder? And why should anybody take it as "Yes"?! I've been telling this word to him too many times in respond to his invitations, every time finding a reason not to go. If one's not a fool, he'd understand I don't want nothing with him!!! But this American keeps on calling and calling and calling me, worse than Turks who phone me too often with their invitations to Turkey (I think I need to delete my phone number from my HC profile). I don't know HOW to get rid of him, but I don't wanna start to offend, 'coz I'm bit of afraid, he really is sort of mad person... Right now he totally spoilt my mood for the evening... Hope the carpet cleaners will improve it. Or George. Well sure they will. Looking forward for the evening :)))

Stuff for home

I spent the whole weekend buying stuff for my apartment. On Saturday George and I returned home loaded with bags from IKEA and Ashan. On Sunday we went to HyperGlobus in Shchelkovo, a town in the Moscow region, 30-40 min from Moscow, to buy those things that we haven’t found on Saturday. It is such a pleasure to buy something for your living on your own money (even though I can’t afford buying beautiful expensive things that I certainly like), plan where you will put them, bring home and finally start using! As if these things open a new life before your eyes.You feel indescribable sensation washing them and finding a place for them. And you never feel tired when carrying them, no matter how heavy them might seem to you. Because they are YOURS! :) In Russia we use to say, "A burden of one's choice is not felt". The only sad thing is that I don’t have my own apartment, and every time I move to another one I will have to pack my things again and go. It’s the most important issue among all I face. The most complicated and the longest one. And it's almost impossible to solve this problem presently :(

STUPID

Forgot my glasses when hurrying to work (being late as usual). So now I am sitting in my computer chair stretching my neck as far towards computer as possible. But it doesn’t help much, ‘coz my working table is too wide :( That’s how it happens: you leave at home something to which you are accustomed, and in a rash turn into an absolutely helpless creature. Plus spoilt mood and irritation towards everything and everyone. Awful! Thank God, George is at home, and will soon bring me my glasses. I can’t start working normally until I get them. Maybe it’s time to think about contact lenses?.. Ah, why am I so disorganized?! :(((

“We are the champions my friend!!!”

I still don’t believe that we won the match “Russia-England”!!! 2:1 WOW!!!

The match was held here in Moscow yesterday, selection to EURO 2008, seems like the whole Russia watched it (either at the stadium, or sport bars, or at home stuck to the TV box) and prayed for victory. But nobody actually believed we were capable to win, ‘coz everyone knows that Russia can’t play good football :)

However yesterday match was more like hockey! We were great in defense, aggressive, good combinations… What has happened?! Nobody knows, but everyone’s happy!!! It’s like a holiday for us today, everyone’s congratulating each other, and yesterday Russia partied all night long :)

Now we have 2 more matches – with Israel next month, and with Andorra. But the most “dangerous” competitor is defeated yeah!

In my office we banked for either Russia or England. Russia was 10 rub. England – 20, ‘coz it seemed to be the most possible result. I banked for England, too. And I lost. But I’m happy that I’ve lost!!!

Roller coaster mood.

The mood during the day is like on a roller coaster ride. One moment you feel high, and the very next moment you get smashed.

I was so happy to find Vova finally in Moscow! We got to know each other through Yar hub in spring, and used to chat a lot nearly every day. Then we both discovered that we’re leaving our hometown for the capital, it’s just that he left a bit earlier. And I lost all the connection with him, since he changed a sim card in his mobile, and then I moved to Moscow and didn’t have the Internet for almost 2 months. And yesterday I suddenly met him on ICQ, we exchanged phone numbers, and he phoned me, so that we could finally talk to each other for half an hour. I was really on top of the world to find this great guy, my very good acquaintance.

Then Mom phoned. I wonder why she always acts as if she’s the centre of the world and everyone should do what she wants to! I knew she’s coming to Moscow with her colleagues to visit a theatre this Saturday, and I told her many times during the last 3 weeks not to buy the ticket for me, ‘coz I won’t have an opportunity to join them. First I wanted to go to Rybinsk with my friend, now the weather changed and we decided to stay in Moscow, but I still have other things to do. “I knew you will finally give up this stupid idea to go to Rybinsk”, she says. /She always finds my every idea crazy and stupid, but I don’t care/ “So I bought a ticket for you”. – “Why Mom? I told you I have other plans!” – “Because you must go to the theatre, ‘coz I think if you went to the Variety Show Theatre /she considers it to be a non-serious place to visit./ then you will go to this theatre, too” – “Yes, I’d love to, but I don’t have time on that day, I told you!” – “Then we’ll lose the money spent on that ticket” – “But WHO told you to buy it? Why do you always act the way you wish to? Haven’t I told you I won’t join you?!” – “You’re a rascal!!! Don’t come to Yaroslavl any more, I don’t want to see you…” etc etc. WHERE IS MY FAULT??? AM I TO BE BLAMED??? WHY DOES SHE ALWAYS BEHAVE AS IF I AM HER PET???

Now I don’t know what to do… I wanted to go to IKEA and do some household things with George. But now I know I won’t have peace in my soul, ‘coz I will be thinking about that damned ticket and Mom upset for me (even though there’s no actual reason for that!)… Wish to phone Granny and talk to her. Really do wish to. I think I’ll do it today in the evening…
