i'm an asshole because i haven't written in over month. i also have not finished writing about the rest of my baltic adventure - i didn't even make it to the good parts when we were in st. petersburg.

i think part of it had something to do with being busy. another part of it was also just being lazy. so here's my asshole catch up post to get me up to speed, though, i'm sure that any readers i might have had no longer even check to see if i post anything on here. ah, those are the breaks.

1. uh, we went on a cruise to the baltic sea area. (duh). more importantly, we came back alive, after our dealings with the russian mafia. oh, and in case you were curious, here's where we went: kiel canal; warnemunde, germany; tallinn, estonia; st. petersburg, russia; helsinki, finland; stockholm, sweden; copenhagen, denmark.









2. since our trip to the baltic, my favorite vodka is rusky standard. apparently the american name for rusky standard is imperia, which is now being imported in the states. in russia, you drink shots of it in little shot glasses, and when you order it, you order it by the milliliter.





3. friends and family have actually come down to visit us in dc. we even went to the air and space museum and played with that heat sensitive thingy in the picture. (don't know what it's called. sorry)







4. apparently i'm now a ninang to this little boy passed out in the picture, zachary, aka "wild man".







5. went to san francisco for 5 days, which i WILL post about in the near future.
