Laying low



This weekend was very low key. I worked very hard last week, basically from 7am until 8 or 9 pm almost every night. I had intended on going someplace this weekend but after a week like that I just needed to recover and recoup from the long week. So I did the normal boring things that I would do in the US, which is groceries and watching TV, going to the movies and sleeping in. I went to see two movies, Saturday night I went out with Laurence, she left for Tunisia on Sunday to meet her twin sister for vacation. So , we got together before she left so that we could hang out a little. We went out for dinner at the same seafood restuarant that I mentioned earlier, at the mall. I am still amazed that a landlocked country could have a good seafood restuarant! Then we saw Fools Gold, it was cute, a nice way to pass two hours. I also started watching the series Rome from HBO. My friend Jim let me borrow this while he is in Poland. I really like it so far and I have watched the first seven episodes. I worked on putting together a CV (resume) for one of the girls I met over here, and I submitted it for an Admin Position over here. She is a nice girl, smart, she speaks 4 languages, but she hasn't had the opportunity to finish college so I figured I would try and help her out a little. She is a bartender at one of the places that I go regularly and she has always been nice to me, so I hope that this works out for her. Tomorrow I might meet up with Kathy and her friend from the US, who is here visiting, to go out for a little while. Then on Thursday, I think that Justyna, the bartender/new friend, are going to the Indian Restaurant on my street, Namaste. This coming weekend, I will head to Phantasialand in Germany with some of my colleagues, another amusement park, who knew I would go to more amusement parks in Europe than I have in the US! I will have some more pictures for you then. Hopefully something more exciting to tell than working hard and working hard!

Isn't Namaste what you say after you do Yoga? Have you found a good place to do Yoga? Enjoy the Indian food, don't eat too much curry!! Everyone knows what happens when you eat too much curry.
