Ракийчице, светая мъченичице… Алилууууууяаааааа….
В това време просто трябва да се разчита на вътрешно отопление. Утре мисля да ида да купя няколко литра ракия, половин кило черен пипер и 3 буркана мед, требе да стигнат за месец-два… Трябва и да се направи фонд “Незнайния герой, измислил греяната ракия”, да му се направи паметник, и да се разпространи делото му из разните кръчми :)
(имаше слух, че в Стария войн правели греяна ракия…)
The rainy time is perfect for me to stay at home and eat the cooked by my mother (REALLY GOOD) veal stew…
Дъждовното студено време е перфектно човек да си стои вкъщи на топло, и да си хапва сготвеното от майка му (МНОГО ВКУСНО) телешко варено…
Last night it was the usual IBB, with some people missing. I got really drunk (this stout is too easy to drink), after which me and Anton went to Maskata (the Mask) to listen to Balkandji. The place itself was somewhat bad and really stifling, and some guy from the staff asked me a few times to put my shirt on (they should’ve taken better care of the AC…).
It was really great that Anton drove me home, I was really drunk… And looks like I’ve lost my glasses, and have absolute no idea where that could be.
(and I’m not refusing someone to tell me what I’ve done last night)
On top of all this chervarium also had gotten drunk last night, after which looks like he had cooked something and then hanged his clothes (a pretty good achievement). In the morning he also wasn’t sure who did all this.
And by the way this week I finished watching the whole Monty Python’s Flying Circus. Really idiotic and funny :)
Снощи беше стандартното ИББ, в леко намален състав. Аз се напих доста добре (много лесно влиза тая тъмна бира), след което с Антон отидохме до Маската, да послушаме Балканджи. Самото заведение се оказа горе-долу гадно и бая задушно, а някакъв от персонала няколко пъти ми прави забележки, че съм си свалял тениската (ами да се бяха погрижили за климатизацията…).
Добре, че ме докараха до вкъщи, че както добре бях пиян… На всичкото отгоре съм си изгубил някъде очилата, и изобщо не съм сигурен къде.
(изобщо не отказвам да ми се разкаже какви съм ги вършил)
На всичкото отгоре снощи и червото се напил, след което изглежда си е готвил и си е прострял дрехите (бая сериозно постижение…). Сутринта и той не беше наясно кой е свършил тия геройства.
Иначе м/у другото тая седмица довърших гледането на целия Monty Python’s flying circus. Ужасно идиотско и смешно :)
Last night Bulgara played at O!Shipka for a first time in 3-4 months, and it was great as usual… The news is that their album will be officially released at 2.11, with a concert at Bulgaria hall (Hurrraaaay!).
I’m continuing with the lazy working from the bed with the laptop. Warm, cozy, quiet…
Снощи Булгара свириха в О!Шипка за пръв път от 3-4 месеца (без гъдуларката…), добре ми дойде тяхната музика… Новината е и че на 2.11 ще е официалното излизане на албума им, заедно с концерт в зала България (Урррааааа!).
Аз продължавам съвсем мързеливо да работя от леглото с laptop-а. Топло, приятно, спокойно …
A few strange days – laziness, lack of connection, etc. I’m reading “History of the second world war” by B. H. Liddel Hart, a really good book…
Странни няколко дни – мързелувах, нямах net, и т.н. Чета си “История на втората световна война” на Базил Лидъл Харт, много добра книга…
For some reason I started digging in the Constitutional court, to read the decisions, and now I’m looking at the law for the political parties… I think that most people will find it very educational to read on some of the cases, like the constitutionality of DPS, the return of Simeon’s estates, etc.. I think I’m starting to get Peio’s explanations on the interpretations and the uncertainness of the laws…
Хванах се по някаква причина да се ровя в Конституционния съд, да чета различните решения, сега опрях до закона за политическите партии… Мисля, че за всеки би било много образователно да се зачете за различните въпроси, като например конституционността на ДПС, връщането на имотите на Симеончо и т.н.. Мисля, че и започвам да схващам обясненията на Пейо за тълкуванията и неяснотата на законите…
The day passed in laziness and IBB… What follows is sleep.
Деня мина основно в мързел и ИББ… Следва спане.
I was at a “Mluk” (“Shut up”) concert at O!Shipka – they’re playing nice, but some of their stuff is a bit boring. None the less, I intend to get some of their mp3s from Elen, to hear them at a quieter place.
(the covers they played were great)
Something, which’s text I wanted to put here, but am too tired to – a song bu er maluk, that Yuvigi play too. One of the most sincere things I’ve heard.
I intend to sleep through the next few days.
Бях на концерт на “Млък” в О!Шипка – свирят приятно, но някои от нещата им са ми твърде скучни. Все пак ще измъкна от Елен няколко техни mp3-та да чуя на спокойствие нещата им.
(cover-ите, които правеха си бяха страхотни)
Нещо, на което мислех да пусна тук текста, но съм твърде уморен – песен на ер малък, която свирят и Ювиги. Може би една от най-искрените, които съм чувал.
Смятам да проспя следващите няколко дни.
Today we made a pgp keysigning party at pizza “Toscana”, ate, drank, and watched each other’s documents :). After that with Pentchev and my mother we went to the Yuvigi concert. They played great, there was a lot of rocking (especially at the cover of Smoke on the water), and I wonder where could I find recordings of some of their songs to listen to them more carefully, they remind me a lot of some progressive things.
(and why are the progressive bands in Bulgaria so rare, the style is really nice..)
Tuesday (11.10) (after a long lull) Bulgara will be playing at O!Shipka, Hurrah! :)
Днес направихме pgp keysigning party, събрахме се в пицария “Тоскана”, хапнахме, пийнахме, и си гледахме личните карти :). След това с Пенчев и майка ми отидохме на концерта на Ювиги. Свириха много приятно, покуфяхме си (особено на cover-а на Smoke on the water), а аз се чудя отде мога да намеря записи на някои техни песни, просто за да ги послушам по-внимателно, много ми напомнят на разни progressive неща.
(изобщо защо има толкова малко progressive групи в България, това е толкова приятен стил…)
Във вторник (11.10) ще свирят (след дълго затишие) Булгара в О!Шипка, Ураааа! :)
With desync and chervarium we ate like beasts in Divaka. The paunch soup is something great …
Tomorrow there’s a “Yuvigi” concert at Fans, let’s see if they’ll play something new :)
С червото и desync се наядохме зверски в Дивака. Хубаво нещо е шкембе чорбата…
Утре има концерт на “Ювиги” във Fans, да видим какво ново ще свирят :)
(written at Dublin airport, 1.10).
I managed to get up ok at 5:20 in the morning (but there was nothing normal in the hours), got in time to the airport, my e-ticket was accepted normally, and I even managed to enjoy the wireless interhet while waiting for my flight (this is what they’ve gotten right, in Dublin I have to look around to buy vouchers, and in Prague I hope to find out how exactly can I use the net when I’m flying back).
(And why arent’t there any sockets around on these airports, damn it? I don’t have an endless battery).
The travel to Ireland was ok – just the plane from Prague to Dublin got delayed with 40 minutes and then they kept it some more on the Dublin airport (probably they had some power failure, some pole around the airport was broken).
I liked the weather – dark, windy, with some rain (which could be omitted, and wasn’t in the forecast – but that’s what I deserve for trusting the meteorologists). I got to the place with a cab (which was pretty well equipped:) ), and then about 6 hours of chewing followed (I met a lot of interesting people, and there’s still a problem that we discussed in my head – I didn’t like their solution, I’ll probably discuss it with Delian).
(details – after I get told the result).
After all of this at some point (at which in Bulgaria it should’ve been dark, but there was light here) I wen to the hotel (which was 20-30 meters away), and managed to get a room (turned out that my reservation was for 30.10, not 3009, but they were able to accommodate me), so I went to my room (after securing a converter to the kind of sockets they have here), ate something ordered from the room service, and just fell asleep.
In the morning I got up, had breakfast and wen to the airport, where I’m waiting my flight to Prague (here it’s full with suicidal guys – they’re making everyone take off their shoes at the metal detector). I feel really dizzy, probably because of yesterday.
A few small observations:
1) The Guiness beer sucks.
2) Yes, there’s wireless net almost everywhere, but for most places you have to find some really strange way to pay.
2a) Next time I should take care of the vouchers before I take off.
3) It’s raining here by default, there are clouds, etc. The perfect place for a vampire movie.
4) It’s not a bad idea to work on a understanding spoken English with different accents.
5) Next time I’ll take a convertor to their power sockets.
(written at home)
I think that there’s only one thing that makes me happier than coming home (and that’s none of your business :) ). I can’t describe how happy I am, I’ll just say that it’s really hard to stop smiling :)
