Life or somethink like it

I've been busy lately with work and school. And didn't really have anything to write about. Lots of boring stuff.

I am in the 6th week of school already, and a group project Phase 1 is active status. I am going by the path of least resistance at the moment, so I went along with the group's topic of Using Twitter for Pharmaceutical Company. Meh, it's a topic. I'll do my part. I have some difficulty with taking an online course. Since it is paced diffirently than school session method I find it hard not having strict timelines and due dates.


The Baby is actively communicating now through goos, gaas, and other variety of gutteral sounds. she's is into her 4th month now. The head and neck muscles have much more control, and she is trying, although unsuccessfully, to pull herself up by grabbing my thumbs. She is also starting to accompany smiles by what can be classified as laughter sounds.

The Five Year Old is becoming more strong willed by the day. She pulled a big one couple of weeks ago. Switching between classes in Sunday Russian school, she tricked everyone there by saying she wants to go to the drawing class. We can't pull her out from there now. She loves to draw, and that gives us the much needed "candy" to use when getting her to Russian speaking and reading/writing classes.

That is all for today folks. Have a pleasant Monday.

Good to know everything's going well.

Logan has moved on from giving his toys the occasional time out to now administering time outs to us and his grandpa.

No baby yet, but we'll have one by Thursday for sure.
Yes, I have already gotten the "Dad, if you are not listening you'll get a timeout".

Good luck with everything.

Things you never cared to know about Mayonnaise

I have decided to start a new Rubric. Once a week I will write a post about a random subject. Having the subject coming out of MY head, it can be about anything. I constantly have a lot of random "Why?" and "How does?" questions floating around in my head. I will try to explain how I arrived to the subject at hand and promise to do diligent research on Wikipedia and provide you, the unfortunate reader, with either the interesting or unusual bits of info. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED! In addition to that I have a slight fetish for trivia. The rubric will be called: Things you never cared to know about Today's topic is Mayonnaise . How did I arrive to that? As I was making breakfast in the morning, I decided that I wanted to take a pita pocket and stuff it with something. The pitas are usually fairly dry, and you have to toast them. I did not have Hummus or Babaganoush (GOD! I just love saying BA-BA-GA-NOUSHHHHHHHHH!) I put a little Mayo inside to soften it up. So, ther

Crazy ideas - UPDATED

Here's a crazy survey I thought off. If you had a time machine where would you travel first? Assuming the fact of course of universal invincibility. ----UPDATE---- As my brother mentioned, with time travel universally available getting rich schemes would be less than doable. My aim is more towards investigating great mysteries of history. Therefore: a. To the Big Bang b. To see an asteroid killing dinosaurs c. To see the exodus of Jews as it really happened d. Try to see if Jesus hubbub really happened e. Forget the past, I'd go to the year 2020 to see who winds World Series and place a bet accordingly. f. Suggested by Ilya . Back a day or to to purchase winning lottery ticket. e. Try to see if Atlantis existed. f. Travel to the future to see the explosion of our Sun. I am torn between the dinosaurs and the World Series. Please suggest the choices. Should I add Buddha and Muhammed to the list as well? From the curiousity stand-point. I still rather see the dinosaurs.

Weekend update

Finally some beautiful weather here in Chicago. We have decided to go to our regular hunting grounds at Lincoln Park Zoo. We slept well into the morning, picked up our good friends and in the company of four adults and three children went to see the animals. The photographer in me was screaming bloody murder to go out and make pictures. Thankfully my wife was very tolerant this time around with me running around like a madman taking picture of anything that moved. Lincoln Park Zoo is a great little place. It's free (if you don't consider $17 parking) they have all the animals kids love to see, and none of the animals where you stand scratching your head wondering how do you explain platipus to a 5-year-old. One bad thing that happened today, is I think i forgot to close the car, and somebody got in and stolen my Magellan GPS. Luckily nothing else was in the car, so other then that the car remained untouched. Unpleasant, but I have only myself to blame, and I think I'll live
