My phone, my ipod, my credit card, my house keys and myself were all upsettingly parted from each other on Saturday night, it was a painful experience. Just to let anybody who may have been texting me that I'm not ignoring you, I'm just phoneless. Should be remedying the situation soon.

The tunnel that collapsed in the metro is on our line, two stops from where we live, miraculously nobody was hurt. The beautifully Russian reason for its collapse was that there were guys drilling without a permit up above the tunnel and they drove a concrete cylinder into the tunnel, hitting a train and causing a fire. What a country!
