This Russian Life

[ 12.19.18.13.03 ]

It’s 05:48 AM in the morning. I’ve been up all night programming, again, as usual. My lady is passed out with her son. I pondered sleep until the boy rolled over his mom and using her neck as a resting place for his leg planted his tiny foot against my forehead. I decided that sleep would wait and got up to set the water to boil.

Green tea with jasmine (Greenfield: Jasmine Dragon) or Coffee (Nescafe GOLD Instant with two spoonfuls of Nesquik Chocolate mix for flavouring, since I can’t do milk.) For me tea is a stimulant and coffee is a sedative. After I have woken the lady and her boy to get him off to school, I will want to pass out. Coffee won.

We have all been sick off and on with flu like symptoms since the toxic bromine spill. Thank the gods they have Theraflu in this country. That and Sprite (yes, the soda) was just what the Dr. ordered. Although, I don’t call Sprite by name anymore. I fondly refer to it as “Toilet Cleaner”, since that is what most people here buy it for.
