Pada kiša puno danas!
Yes there was a lot of rain today, but having no means of calling my friend, I decided to go ahead and go. By the time I got downtown, it was pouring terribly, and I bought an umbrella, now it's important to realize, I NEVER bother with umbrellas, it's yet one more thing to carry and forget, but the rain was really fairly heavy, and I really had to have it. On top of it,I have had kind of a headache, and my ankle was hurting a little. So I got a taxi, and went on my merry way.
I gave my friend a belated birthday present. It is a Wembley necktie, a rather nice one too. Anyway, we hung out, eating roast chicken,you can get roast chicken from various take-out places fairly cheaply, usually fairly small chickens,but very tasty! We had pickles and sliced onions with . We had a good Hercegovinian red wine,and some rakija. We watched silly Mexican stuff on T.V. It's AMAZING how much Mexican programming there is here! There always was some, but this was a lot.
Oh a few people may remember the big Sevarina porn scandal??? Well my friend knows the guy in the film! We laughed about that a bit. Can't WAIT to share this with an internet buddy who sent me the film!
Anyway, we had a nice time, and all too soon it was time for me to leave and for him to take his car into the shop. Hehe has to go down to his brother's to help make rakija.
Tomorrow, I think I'll go and do the rounds of the museums, many of them are free.
I need to have a word with the land-lord about the self-opening bathroom window, it's not a security issue this high up, it is however a problem in terms of being warm enough. I have to stand in the tub to close the bloody thing. A lot of the small windows are hard for me to open and close since I am short.
The rain let up later in the day. I took the tram back into town and got a taxi to get back to the flat.
Well, it's now time to watch the news, and all my favorite tasteless Balkans comedy shows! :)
