Shit! No Sheets!

привет, my friend!

Today I finally moved in to the apartment. A company driver picked me up and dropped me off at the apartment, where the owner was waiting for me.

She explained how everything works, but she didn't know how to connect to the Internet. She called the Internet provider's customer service dept but they said they'd call her later (!). Turned out I managed to connect after reading a website in Russian -- she couldn't believe I'd succeeded.

I forgot my dictionary, so there was no way of knowing if I was buying the right kind or size of sheets. Not to mention the designs were cheesy as hell! Anyway, this is what I ended up buying:


I'm now waiting for some guys to deliver the TV, but satellite will only be installed on Tuesday. Good thing I downloaded some TV shows from iTunes.

пока!
