@Ärväthyyll: Bloody telemarketing, I also know how annoying it can be. Some bank keeps calling me in order to offer personal loans. They always begin the conversation with saying "We are calling you on official business". In Hungarian "official" and "governmental" are the same word, so the first time they called me they scared the shit out of me. I thought: "Oh, dammit, the tax office has caught me!". Then after introducing they continue: "Are you interested in our personal loans?" "No, thanks." "Maybe will you be interested next week?" "No." "Next month?" "No." "What do you think when will you be interested?" "I don't think I will be interested." "Then can we call you next month?"
Not to mention my mobile provider. They are trying to persuade me to buy a new phone. Usually a young woman with an extremely stupid name calls me. I laugh my head off every time she introduces herself. I'm beginning to feel sorry about disappointing her continually.

Good: I became an aunt for the 2nd time, so congrats to my sister and her BF.
Good: Weekend.
Good: Beer.
Good: Quenya.
One beer to rule them all.
One whiskey to find them.
One vodka to bring them all
and in the drunkness bind them!

My gratulations and best wishes.

Good: Weekend, and thus booze. I find it hard to deal without it since some time now, but due to my work and other obligations, I can't drink as much as I would like to. Fortunately, some might say.
Good: Shirt-wearing weather kicking in a bit more each day. I am sick of wearing coats, hats and all.
Good: Agalloch on high volume.
Still to this day
I can hear the whistle blow
I can smell the sage burn
I may be as old and stubborn as a pine
But I am just as wild as the young.

Congrats Ärväthyyll!

Good: The Malaysian Grand Prix was exciting except for the long break in the beginning of the race. It was because of a heavy shower, it happens in Malaysia.

Bad: According to Fenrir, my english is getting worse. Well, this is what happens if you cannot practice as much as you would like to. Reading/writing is one thing, but talking is quite another. And if only one of them isn't practiced, well then....es schmeckt gut, ja? ;)
Good: Will get mutilated today.
Bad: Really weird dreams lately.

Es tut mir leid mein Freund. Ich bin nur ein einfacher Amerikaner. :D

Good: Father confirmed, just waiting for the passport...to Germany then Prague in June!!! I cannot wait and it has been a long time coming. Everyone prepare yourselves for the American assault!!!
Good: Everything seems good now that I can escape this country and its cursed politicians.
Good/Bad: Will maintain citizenship of course, dual if I find a lovely woman who is willing to deal with me :D, but I fear having to do all the tax crap that lies ahead...and the paperwork included with work Visa's, consulates, bank accounts, etc. The next two months might be a little rough.

Bad: As for foreign languages I read a very saddening article today. According to this article 75% of Hungarians doesn't speak foreign languages. OK, I know that learning languages takes much time and money, but apart from 15 million people who the hell understands our bloody language in the world? By the way I also need practicing or rather re-learning the whole thing.
