Gimme that Christian side hug!!!!
Did anyone explain to these kids what "i'm a rough rider" means? Coz i think it means something different to what they are thinking...
Arguments over whether Jesus was celibate or not, i dont think he csh'd it.
The csh rids us of the temptation of accidently beginning to shag the other person which is apparently is a real risk associated with regular, or 'front hugs'.
By the look of these youth, the csh might be doing them fine right now, but I think the rough riding more accurately describes their futures.

sweet dreams
Hmm, I have been thinking of getting a new bed.
Something condusive to rest and romance, how about this one?
1070 euros seems a small price to pay for this lifestyle.

da boid
So I got meselff a bird. A canary. It is apparently a boy, who 6 months ago was an egg. I held an egg up to the cage and it seems like a remarkable transformation. He doesnt look like an egg these days at all.
To get him to sing, he has to have sounds around that he likes. The cd of another canary singing was pretty good, which made me worry he was prone to egotism.
I dont want to make that call too early, as apparently canaries also like the sound of vaccuum cleaners (yet to test).
so i leave the radio playing all day and whilst i havent found the station yet that he really likes, we seem to have similar tastes in what we dont like.
there was one glorious moment in musical experimentation with a random collection of classical music i was chucking together to soothe the 6 year old savages where birdyboy cranked it out, and johnny harmonised :)

silent number : the boss of 'Czechoslovakia'
Geez, trying to make my way to cz with the dog...
it seems another thing that I thought was kind of problematic a year ago seems relatively problem free in retrospect.
so I go to buy a ticket.
they tell me I have to physically bring in the ticket I bought last trip i used with aerosvit to get those airmile points.
i bring it in.
they say you dont need it but anyway I cant use any of the airmile points.
the price is in dollars, so almost double the price it was last year.
I go with it.
This part is frustrating but predictable. Considering this is the national airline of Ukraine, not THE Ukraine, and the office has maps, computer terminals and phones, I assume some knowledge of history of the region, and knowhow regarding use of the equipment on the desk.
well, you know about assumption..
They tell me the flights they had advertised were one way with their partner csa, one way with aerosvit, and that from prague to kyiv they can say the dog will not be a problem, but to get there the flight is with their partner csa so they cant guarantee I can take the dog.
I say, "can we call csa to check?"
they say " no"
I say "do you have the number so can call them?"
they say "no"
I say "do you have a phone book so I can find the number and call them, they have an office in kyiv"
they say "no phone books"
I say "do you have the internet so we can find the number and call them?"
they say " We cant look for any numbers. We cant call Czechoslovakia. It is 6 pm. It is closed"
I say " I think Czechoslovakia 'closed' a bit before 6, but does the czech airline NOT have a telephone"
they say " you can go to prague and ask if they do"
I say " but the office is here in kyiv, cant we call that office?"
They say " no. only the country will know, not the airline"
I say " but I have done this a few times over the past 3 years, through your office, without a problem, by someone using the phone to call your partner company"
they say " I dont know if you did or you didnt. Go to Czechoslovakia and ask"
OH yeah??? Yeah, well I WILL!
Johnny and I will not be defeated by a ten-set of gel nails and the " permanent coffee break" attitude.
I am gonna find that boss of Czechoslovakia and me and him or her are gonna head down to Aerosvit head office and hot glue gun a phone book so a certain you-know-who's forehead.
And then request, sternly even, the vegetarian snack and aisle seat.
