It is snowing relentlessly and we have been driving like forever. Snail driving that is. I slept with no dreams and I was late for my first, and I decided my only, appointment. Half way through country and I hope I make it in one piece back home in three days. Tonight I get to see my folks and sleep over at their place. Too bad I cannot post pictures. Romania under snow. At this speed, taking pictures is all I can do somehow properly.
It’s heavily snowing and we have to go a long way. Quite literally. By today we’ll be done with Moldova and into Ardeal/Transylvania. The connection is kinda slow and I am kinda late. Got to split. Bye!
I love being away. I love posting from a distance. A distance from what? Hm. Let me see. I took a number of pictures and I like a number of those. I cannot post them right now and I am not sure I should download the software on this computer. Not being able to show what I want to show spells frustration. I tried to write, but I cannot seam to be able to recollect myself in neither Romanian, nor English. I am not silent, and I am not calm, and maybe I should be more like that in order to be able to write.
The day was half full and freezing cold. Nothing spectacular. A dog got fed. Two dogs got fed. I had a nice meal. Then a second one. Now I am lingering with thought and should probably just hit the sack now. Tomorrow will be long and as well as cold.

Much to T’s dislike, I would often go “I’ve been there!” as we are watching American movies. Now I don’t do it to annoy him, nor to pat myself on the back for being oh so great. I just like to travel and see things and I am one of the lucky ones who have been granted the chance. In retrospect, my reaction is purely childish.


I have spend a half of an hour laughing out loud with Vava on the phone. Making fun of her. Now she is a “Laureate”. She will be receiving a diploma by post, issued to Mr Vava Stefanescu. And now she is in the wrong for not declaring in full her 2003 income. Life in Romania is hysterical. But we have culture and prizes and humour and we are surviving.
