Back at work

Happy birthday, jweiss!

Only 200 e-mail messages to sift through at work. Of course, 30 of those were spam (the spam that *didn't* get pre-filtered out), so even easier.

Things I learned at Saturday night's most fabulous and life-affirming party:
(1) Apparently, and despite all campaigning and common sense, I am still not entirely over [deleted]. Dammit, dammit, sonofabitch.
(2) But I have wonderful and supportive friends, old and new. (This is not a news flash, but still noteworthy.)
(3) There are other, less destructive crushes that still persist 12 years later.
(4) The roozle-sunspiral estate numbers among its marvels a Room of Requirement. (Bet you didn't know that, eh, guys?)

Things I learned yesterday from eesti:
(1) Divan, chemodan, sakvoyazh, Kartina, korzina, kartonka...
(2) Russian lessons before bed do not promote restful sleep.

Having been alerted that I should catch up on your LJ...Thanks for the birthday wishes!

And since it seems to be relevant to the thread, I'll note that my recent trip to Croatia has renewed my interest in Russian. I was surprised at the number of similarities between it and Croatian.

Your spies are everywhere! Hee hee... I'm suddenly going to find out *exactly* how many people I know have ever taken any Russian, I suspect :-)

How else could I keep track of everyhitng I need to know. I've never actually taken any Russian, but I did spend a few years at MIT hanging around a bunch of Russians. :-)

Oh, right. Of course you did.
