Well, after an exceedingly rubbish week at work, I'm not much in the mood for lemonade, instead beer, wine or any other alcoholic beverage for that matter rather takes my fancy.
It's Friday night in Moscow and I'm back at home after a 3 hour round trip to teach my student, in what turned out to be a cancelled (but thankfully paid for) lesson, tucked up in bed, another 2 episodes of Sex and the City under my belt, halfway into my second lemon flavoured beer and feeling much better about the (not so) wasted trip out of Moscow. I might be teaching tomorrow but I must plan my weekend wisely if I'm to get through this damn list. I think I'll keep this weekend central, maybe the Kazan Cathedral, Monastery of the Epiphany and Nikolskaya Monastery...
Sunday the 7th of February 2010
It's early evening and I'm back in my flat after a little something to eat at a local bar which in no way could I pass off as a 'second cultural outing' mind you, it was quite productive. 90 minutes after entering the premises of my local Krushka, which is incidentally the furthest I have ventured on the other side of my metro station (Кожуховская), I left with 1 card and 10 postcards written and addressed (to everyone I have in my address) book. All I need to do now is find my flipping stamps and a post office.
Sorry it wasn't a more thrilling read, it should've been entitled 'Leaving the house once or twice doing nothing much interesting...'
