Roma had to cancel for lessons today -- did it right as I was walking into the university this morning. It was ok though -- I'll just have more private lessons myself.
*****
Tamara E. was happy with how I spoke today. "Only one time where I didn't understand what you wanted to say!"
Immigrants topic
*****
Grammar - learning some interesting words/colloquialisms with the sounds animals make! (For that matter, learning how we differ, on how we say animals speak… Ha ha ha…)
*****
Vitaly cancelled my lessons… In all fairness, while I was still at school, he said it would just be likely he was going to cancel. (I headed home just in case -- and he cancelled just as I got in the door.) Poor guy still wasn't feeling well. But I'd become flat out exhausted during the day, too -- so I understood. My teacher said there was some kind of magnetic storm going on or something -- and that's why so many people felt badly today.
On the bright side, that meant I could go celebrate Chris' birthday with him, and some of the guys!!!!
***********
On the not so bright side, I got groped on the way to go meet up with My Boys. F&*^%$#.... Copped a good feel of my bum and ran off. And I'm pretty sure I took the Lord Jesus' name in vain so loudly, the whole neighborhood could hear it...
21 Prime restaurant - All You Can Eat Ribs
Oh. My. GOD. AMAZING! (Until the last set or so for some of us. But even the first ones we had were amazing enough to justify it all!!)
This is killing my diet though. = O_o=
*****
Went to Liga - surprised Mowery with a cake that Natasha (his girlfriend) had made, and she even gave some of us those firework/confetti popper things! He he he!
Great night. Should have left when Q went home though -- I didn't get home until 3, and I was SO tired, I was almost falling asleep at the bar.
BUT!!! It turned out to be a blessing in disguise that I didn't go home early.
While in the car, I heard that jazz trumpet song that I had so loved!!!!! This time, I grabbed a "voice memo" recording of it with my phone, then got the radio station info, and marked the time it was when the song was playing. I figured that Moscow had to have some kind of online playlist log for its radio stations (like in the US). Sure enough, I found the song!!!!!!! And I found another one I'd heard earlier that night [on the way to Liga] that I'd also loved!
For anyone who is curious, the Trumpet song was Chris Botti's, "Someone To Watch Over Me." Just gorgeous.

You'd think I'd have gone straight to bed, but no….
I cleaned up, put the dinner away that had been left for me -- and then proceeded to mess with music things that had been piling up through the week, until 6:30 AM… = @_@ = Eek.
Also, chatting with people. Caught up with Conard. …
Needless to say, when I finally hit the hay, I truly was exhausted!!!!!!
