The Russian Cure for a Cold

It works for a cold and it's my Russian friend's (Misia) nightcap:
  1. 1 glass of vodka
  2. A pinch of lemon
  3. A few spoons of honey
Mix together and take a shot.

mmmm Vodka

Well I didn't have the honey on me nor the lemon, so I had vodka right up with Misia. Mmm yeah, that's the good stuff that keeps them Russians warm in the winter. I could feel the glow from the inside after the shot. Aside from a slight cough, I almost feel cured!

Aside from that. Misia dropped by to poke around on my internet connection and trade a few stories. Apparently there is a band of 3 girls in Russia called "Viagra" (spelt totally differently in Russian... well looks differently in their language) , renowmed for their skimpy outfits. We had a couple of good laughs.

Awesome guy and he's a giant- 2 meters tall. It's hilarious hanging out with him-- Japanese girls have the most stunned look in their faces when they see him. We've had a few change their mind from stepping into the elevator with him. Too funny.

The next cure I'm going to try is wasabi for a stuffy nose. :)

Greets Rose,

Thanks for the tip. I`ll see what the Japanese have in their liquor stores. Barring whiskey, I`ll give sake a shot (literally :)

Hi Ho!

Sounds like you're boozing up a storm and being hit on by giggly girls all the time over there...I assume Margaret knows about this? And why don't you just tell these girls you're already taken?

Thanks for sharing the adventures of Ho--we miss having you around to laugh at. I mean with.

Hey Steph, well I do (while I show them pictures of Canada). Too funny though.

You are right though, some of the girls here are super giggly. It also gets exponentially gigglier when they`re in a pack. Crazy, really. :)
