Spring hits Moscow, populace proceeds to CAPSLOCK AT THE WORLD

As I've mentioned previously, I work for one corporate megalith that, due to tarantellic machinations, the vicissitudes of the market, and deliberate power plays, is now co-located in the same building as another corporate megalith ( Read more... )

alright, call me a for'ner, but why is the Moscovite quote funny?

Every time I see that icon I crack up. (Your icon, I mean.)

It was funny because 1) ALL CAPS OF JOY and 2) the phrasing in English. It's funny to me in context because this Moscow colleague and I have an epic e-mail correspondence going, an e-mail thread that's been going on for six months, and every now and then he'll burst into ALL CAPS OF DOOM. That and his general wit and intelligence on other topics make it funny to me.

The nebula? mercuryeric April 16 2009, 03:38:35 UTC

The nebula does remind me of something.

...I need serious professional help.

No, you don't need professional help. Uh uh. I'd forgotten about that episode of Star Trek, and you're absolutely right. That and Eternity.

"Nice to hear you. FINALLY HERE IS SPRING IN MOSCOW!!!1!"

Yeah, right.
It WAS spring-borderline summer yesterday. This morning it was snowing. GRRR!!!

YOU'RE BACK! kali921 April 16 2009, 14:31:45 UTC

You're back! I was thinking about you when I wrote this entry, my dear. How have you been? How is school? (Or did you graduate already?)

Snowing? Really?! It's a breezy 50 degrees Fahrenheit here. Come visit!

Re: YOU'RE BACK! jaelinque April 19 2009, 08:24:01 UTC

Mostly fine, thank you!
I graduated from law school, got a job (it doesn`t pay much, but, as I own my apartment, I don`t have to pay rent, therefore it.. evens out in a way) just about a month before recession fully hit Russia, now am mostly busy with getting my life in order. I mean, last several months were like some sort of a haze, but now it`s getting brighter. I get tired less, walk more, find new ways to spend money (like buying a bike and ordering "Watchmen"), etc. Life semms to be finally getting better.

It was about 60 Fahrenheit on Wednesday here =).
Then come Thursday morning... and snow! Nothing serious, it was mostly melting in the air as it was falling. Did awful things to my hair =). That`s the thing about Moscow climate: COLD winters and HOT summers. That makes autumns and springs kinda crazy =).

"Seems", not "semms" of course =).
