It stil feels like I am on vacation and that I will be coming back in a week and well I don't know what. So glad I am here.

Last night I met up with megan and went a pub which will soon be down the block from me. Actually there will be many pubs down the block from me. In a funny coincident I think I am going to live close to subsidised housing again not across the street, more a block away. But really - At this point it would be weird not living by one anymore. 

I am obsessed with Indian Food.  I went to this place called "Pauls" that is supposed to have amazing sandwiches. it was just OK. 

The place I am staying now is on the 5th floor walk up, always out of breath getting to the room. they have 365 channels of satellite TV 300 are in arabic and 65 are porn. Very bizzare.

When I get on the tube to go home, I take the Piccadilly Line to CockFosters. It makes me laugh every time.

Last night was the championship league finals for soccer the game was played in Moscow so everyone was at the pubs drinking by 7. We ended up not watching by I took the trian home around 11 and had to walk over puke to get onto the train and then more really drunk people joined the car and I think I got a contact high from their alcohol level.

One more day this week, then 3 day weekend of me being a tourist. Psyched!

After I read this line... Last night was the championship league finals for soccer the game was played in Moscow so everyone was at the pubs drinking by 7. We ended up not watching by I took the trian home around 11 and had to walk over puke to get onto the train and then more really drunk people joined the car and I think I got a contact high from their alcohol level. I thought you had to get off the train and puke and then get back on. I was so impressed. After a re-read I am still very impressed. Bet you look less and less like a tourist every day. Has anyone asked you for directions yet? Interesting story about tourists being asked for directions... My dad was walking around our house by four mile run the other day and two young man ran up to him and handed him a cell phone and told him to "Tell the police" where they were. They had been held up by another guy with a knife. It was the middle of the day on a Saturday. Think my dad gave the police decent directions and I guess he didn't really look like a tourist, but thought it was a bizarre story.

How scary

That is not the kind of response I want when someone comes up to me. I did actually have someone ask me for directions yesterday! It is also very comforting when randomly you hear an american accent as you are walking. Doesn't happen often. At the moment I am staying by paddington station so it is a lot of tourists. So more random accents there.
