Marta's all over the place all the time and it's too cold now to take her for those long walks...
Marta's fever was caused by roseola, by the way - thank you, guys, for letting me know about Calpol: they recommended it to my mama at the drugstore, too, and she bought it, and I gave it to Marta once and it worked. Marta's rash was barely noticeable - but enough to remind me of something I'd read on the web a day ago: this is how I figured it was roseola, not (just) the teeth. I didn't call a doctor...

Russian March in Moscow tomorrow, very curious how it would go, really hope no one's gonna get hurt.

Also tomorrow, one year since I left for Kyiv: feels like yesterday, but also very distant.

Here's a picture of Kyiv that's not really Kyiv to me. The new building isn't bad, but I think it totally doesn't belong there, on Lesya Ukrainka Boulevard. I think all those skyscrapers don't belong in Kyiv's center at all - why can't they build something like London's Canary Wharf away from the center?
And a year ago, Nov. 7, 2005:
good lord, that really is out of place, like a giant suppository in the sky...
ReplyDeleteI lived just down the street on Shoto Rustaveli and watched the entire neighborhood transformed (Mandarin Plaza). In 2001 it was a nice quiet neighborhood. Wait till the other TWO buildings go up just on the next corner at Esplanade.
