Had another nice day.... this makes two in a row! Let's see how long the luck lasts....

Got a lot done at work, making more progress on these files. The cafe I regularly frequent for lunch closed today, so I had a nice last lunch there with some friends. Did some dishes after I came home, chatted w/S a while, then prepared things to mail and went out. Spent a couple hours in Traffic.... and discovered their HUGE basement full of CDs and videos! Must go back there. Had a nice, relaxing dinner in a new Italian restaurant. The entire conversation with the waitress was in Polish.. only realized that after I left. Listened to a large group of computer and gamer geeks talking at the next table over. One of them went on for a while about how he was developing some game for the Wii. Made me a little nostalgic for home. ^_^

Took a bunch of stuff to the post office, and again, had a very successful transaction all in Polish. I love the post office late at night, when no one's around and the staff are a lot less irritable. The two women I talked to this evening were very nice and helpful, actually!

Managed to update my bus pass, then took the metro home. Felt genuinely happy to be here. I like Warsaw, and my neighborhood, and the post office, and little things, and all the parks and dogs and funny cars and the fact that the pharmacies are open 7 days a week for decent hours.

Life is good.

MiƂego weekendu!
