приятен уйкенд!

walking into my building this morning it smelled like someone took a huge shit in one of the hallways. how nice. this is after i had to sit amidst a pile of vomit (mostly chicken, with perhaps some beans - i'm guessing they had mexican) on the T last night. oh Boston, you're so classy.

last night christopher and i dined chez fleming-marino for raclette, which i had had a taste for since watching the Switzerland episode of Rick Steve's Europe. this time we added bacon and eggs to the items smothered in cheese, and it was a hit. my favorite combo was perhaps bacon and a cornichon covered in cheese, with ham and onions at a close second. we went through several bottles of wine and had a nice time, though i was tipsy if anything, while meanwhile christopher managed to get tanked. mel gibson is filming a movie in the area, but unfortunately we were redirected by the crew when we tried to cut through it to head back home. the T ride home was fun in that i got to watch christopher pass out over and over on the girl next to him.

i had dunking donuts for the second morning in the row today - oops. thanks to the influences of kasia and ben i now get my iced coffee with cream, though i do still prefer splenda over actual sugar. then we went to the Russian store where i picked up some tasty things for lunch - rye bread, smoked herring, and liver pate. being a Slav is wonderful!

it is very humid today, and can't say i'm planning on exiting my apartment again until later this evening. perhaps i'll curl up to a movie and translate some Old Russian. Joy!
