Yesterday, we watched “The Pacifier” in Russian, since it didn’t have English subtitles. That sucks. Again, I recommend it for all you comedy lovers. Vin Diesel takes a break from action movies and does a hilarious comedy with some action. He plays a Navy Seal that has to protect a family of five kids. You’ll love it. Highly recommended. Well, more later.

Oh, and I think we are finally getting Internet at home. Yay! (I’m just worried about how we’re going to share the computer amongst three people.)

Today, mom and I went to pick up the dry-cleaning. The man who worked there was out for lunch, so another man had to find our clothes and give them to us. Then, when we were about to leave, the owner came back from his lunch break, and told us that he would five us his number in case we needed anything else. He urged us to call him if we had any questions at all. Then he told us again to call him for anything we needed. Then he urged us again to call him if we had any questions. This he did many times until we finally said good-bye and left. After we left, I asked mom what all that was about. She said he was a little more drunk than last time. That explains it. You gotta love the great costumer service here. Then, when we were walking through an inner yard , we saw a construction worker throwing a bucket down on the ground and tossing its contents out. I whispered to mom, “ If you can’t kick the bucket, then just toss it on the ground.” She laughed at this. Ahhh idioms. Well, that’s all for now. Oh, and no internet yet. The guy never came by. This sucks. By the way, fixing up a kitchen (drywall, paint and tile) cost between 150 and 250 dollars. That’s all. Please comment back and tell us what’s going on. We want to hear from y’all beyond the ocean.
