Today I wasn't feeling so hot. Thank you McDonalds for breakfast. Chowed down there and hopped the metro to the art gallery. The tour lasted forever and a day but that's alright. Saw some beautiful and in some cases dark works. I enjoy the dark emotional paintings. There seems to be more there as opposed to a landscape. But I'm not an emo asshat for god's sake. So after poking around there for three hours we went to lunch with Lenia. I have no idea how to spell her name. Or anyone's for that matter. It was a Russian place. I don't remember the name but it was delicious. The feta cheese is SO orgasmically delicious in Russia no matter where you go. It's like they have a goat outside and just squeeze the cheese directly from its nipples onto the plate. Mmmmmm. So we finish lunch and head to the university where we are fencing. Same place as yesterday. We fence forever again and hop the metro to go home and shower and get ready to go out with the Russians. We went to some bar around 10 or so and started to drink. And drink. And drink some more. After three screwdrivers, many vodka shots, and some tasty Czech beer, I was eating my dinner backwards. Many thanks and love to Sallie and Jen who took great care of me. We left the bar and walked on home. Well, everyone else walked. Sallie and Jen dragged me. Almost made it home and I thought it would be fun to leave some of myself in the streets of Moscow so I said "Hey, how about vomiting riiiiiight here!?!" It was lovely. Made it home and fell asleep quickly. Yay.
