Farrago

Just a quick hodgepodge of two bacchanalia (I know...): yesterday was Estonian Independence Day. And it is a joyous occasion, so congratulations!

Here are guests from Vatican arriving to the reception:

I'm loving the footwork. Seriously.

And the other thing I'm loving today is the opening speech Ricky Gervais wrote for The Oscars. You can read all of it here : Ricky Gervais

They should use some of this.

Hello and welcome to The 83rd Academy Awards,
Live from Los Angeles.

AH 
That's foreign for City of Angels.
And this room is certainly filled with those angels.
(Applause)

JF
Oh Anne you are naughty. In a respectful, wholesome way.
(Nodding and smiling)

Off to work. It's cold!

Homecoming

We've been in Vancouver for two days now. City feels nice. Homey. My apartment feels homey. I haven't had time to unpack yet, but I can already see that I'll be needing a bigger bookcase.

I've been offered a job in LA for this summer and I'll have to make a decision by the end of this week. I was kinda hoping to stay home for a bit longer and I'm juggling two jobs at the moment; one of which will wrap by the end of April and the other in June, so if I take this gig there will be no rest for the wicked... all work and no play makes me a really dull girl! BF is kinda pressuring me to take this job cause it looks like he'll be in the city too, so.... and I do like the ways he's trying to convince me ;)

I have added a page to my blog. If you scroll down you'll notice... ID. I'll be writing a story for Svea. When she was a little girl I used to tell her stories about my travels, work, things I did, people I met and to make it interesting for her I added adventures, turned some people into mystical creatures, gave life to inanimate objects etc. Our mom used to call me pocket-Lewis-Carroll (what a compliment). So, now when Svea's a teenager I'll need to spice up the story. I'll write it in Estonian so (ha ha) most of you will not be able to read it. Unless Emily will try to translate it for you. Whatcha think, Em? ;) I'll let you know when I start posting, it'll take some time as I am swamped right now.

Off to work now. Its gonna be a field day today. Literally. We'll be on the field! yar.
