Da! Da! Da!

Privet amigos! Another new week it is! I've been on the metros, in the theatre, at the famer's market's, bribed passport ladies, eaten waay too much of everything, and seen lots of my relatives. It's been crazy hot, then crazy rainy here, the thunder makes you think you're IN a scary movie, and the lightning seems as if it's about to jump through your window. It's been a bit cooler laterly, but here is a bit of an update in the best way, Pictures! Miss y'all!

My uncle Kostya (at the movie theatre)

Dude, they have beer on tap in the movie theatre!

" Hen-cohk" fantabulous

This is mini Dasha. She's my Uncle Alyosha's 2 year old. It's weird to have 2 Dasha's being yelled at all day.

My crazy great uncle Dyadya Kolya (he raises goats and bees) p.s. he's not always this way. he's just making a silly face.

Um. His name is Boris, we gotvery close. But he left me as soon as he knew about my 2 illegitimate children. (Mandy and Duke)

(for those of you out of the loop those are our kitten kiddies. I miss dem.)

I had to.

Beer Hug! (Don't people usually just have weird dreams about stuff like this?) This is the beer I had with Kostya. Figured I'd take this picture with me, close to my heart.

The gang. The food was killah!(That's a technical russian term for killing a bear/holding victory over a huge lunch) or so i think. i drank 3 shots of vodka and 2 glasses of wine and didn't feel anything. I'm a Real Russian! It's in the bloood! Now I have to see what happens when I play chess.








Me toasting to Ira's Birthday/Baby/Family

watching the band Leningrad under the rain (they had 15 guys on stage, they're nuts) Black Lips and Devotchka played earlier

My first Russian ghetto tall can ("Zolotaya Bochka!") me, Sasha, Yulichka

At the Piknik Afisha (a music festival for crazy Moscowians, kind of like a baby coachella)
(I've gotta learn to do the flippy thing with the pictures) it's raining and silliness with sveta (on left) Yulya (Yulichka) and some random girl on the right, she was kind of smelly
