I received my Passport with Visa attached*

I bought a smarter than me phone. (it's locked because I didn't know any better)
I bought the biggest one that they had that wasn't an Ipad. I have big hands and
old man eyes and I don't want to read minuscule text (because I can't)

I told the phone sales people that I was going to Russia and it needed to work.
I might as well had been speaking to them in Russian, they just sold me a phone
without any consideration to how it would work overseas.

I'm in the Bakken oil fields my flight leaves at Ohhhh so Dark Thirty in Bismarck.
There has been snow, ice and freezing fog. So I leave the day before my flight.
Check into a Motel 6, shower, shave, set three different alarms on my phone
drink a Piva and hit the sack.

I'm colorblind, tone deaf, dyslexic and dumb. What could possibly go wrong?  :P

I woke up with the first alarm. Jumped (staggered) into the shower and
was finished packing when the taxi showed up to take me to the airport.
I picked up my suitcase and POP! the handle came off in my hand.

Nothing to worry about because there was a handle on the other side so
I pick it up and POP! the second handle comes off in my hand.

So I just pick it up my stuff like a wanna be bag lady or maybe looking like
Steve Martin in the Jerk and throw it in the trunk. I'm 3+ hours from home
and I'm gonna make this one work*.




I make it to the airport with plenty of time. The Bismarck airport is tiny.
26 or so hours later I arrive in Moscow. I get very little sleep but did manage
to sweet talk the Flight Attendant into giving me an exit row seat for the flight
over the Ocean so I was able to nod off from time to time.

I get through the various lines, gather my bags and make way for the exits.
I get through the exits and I see a tall beautiful girl waiting for me with a
huge smile. I give her a cheek kiss and a hug (she smells nice too) and we
go off towards the exits GEG and me.

I see a little cafe and suggest we get some tea. I am in serious need of some
caffeine. I get tea GEG gets some hot cocoa and the waitress rolls her eyes.
Did GEG say something offensive? did I smell offensive? did I do some ugly
American thing? why did she do that?

I ask about exchanging some money and getting a Russian sim card for my
phone. GEG says that it would be better to get a sim card in Voronezh with a
local Voronezh phone number, which makes sense so I agree.

We get fueled up with tea and coffee at a shop inside the airport and
then hustle off to the train. It's snowing outside, Moscow was not designed
for guys to drag suitcases around with them. We buy train tickets (actually
she does since I haven't exchanged any Rubles yet.) for an evening trip to
Voronezh and then we find a place nearby up and down many staircases of
icy snowy stairs to stash our bags.

We go out and exchange some of my dollars for Rubles and I finally feel like
I am not a leach using her money for everything. I try to give her some then
but she poo poos the idea. We get on another train and end up at Red Square.

Red Square was very very very cool. We went inside the church, took photos and
generally walked around being tourists. We had dozens of photos taken of us
together.

Waves of sleepiness start hitting me like I was marching forward in a hot strong
wind, so I suggest more caffeine. GEG likes the idea so we have some coffee, tea
and cake. I decide that I got my second wind and off we go to be tourists again.

We walk and talk for hours. Checking out bustling Moscow, and the sites.

I suggest we get something to eat. My head feels like I was on one of those
spinning carnival rides. The combination of lack of sleep caffeine and sweets
on an otherwise empty stomach was sending me towards Zombieland.

We find an authentic Ukrainian Restaurant and sit down. I order some borscht
and black bread and an entire pot of black tea, she orders some tasty looking
blini with raspberries and cream(I think)  The conversation is going well, she
seems genuinely interested in me. Her English was good, but occasionally I
would get going too fast and have to repeat what I said.

I am really fading fast the day has ended and we are nowhere near where we
need to be so we walked, took a train to collect our bags, then took another
train to somewhere else (it was a blur) then we finally go onto the train to
Voronezh. We were the only passengers in the little compartment.  :devil:

So the train takes off towards Voronezh and I'm not going to talk about some of the
specifics about the ride on the train.

Some thoughts regarding the train
1. The toilet goes right onto the tracks  :o
2. They gave us sheets and a thin blanket which was far too short to make up
the bunks that folded down out of the walls. I would have liked to have another
one but it wasn't too bad. I felt like I had a childs blanket that covered my shins
to my nipples.  :o
3. The tickets GEG bought included food, but if you don't do this then I would
recommend stocking up a back pack of things to eat and drink.


This is the Voronezh train station


We arrived in Voronezh and GEG called the apartment manager, who arrived at my
apartment about the same time that as it took us to walk from the train station
which was only a few blocks away.

We unpacked, I jumped into the tub to wash with a water weasel hose. For those
who haven't been to the FSU. They always have this hose attachment to the tub.
The pressure of the water causes the hose to flop around unless you got a good
hold of it. If you let go the thing will pretty much drench anything that is below
the 1.5 meter mark (5 feet) it's a learned skill that varies from water weasel to
water weasel.

I did manage to drench my clothes, the floor and pretty much everything else.
Eventually (in a future washing) I learned how to trap the water weasel without
soaking everything in the room. [Note this is at least the 20th time I soaked a
room with the water weasel attachment so it's possible that I'll never learn]

The towels are thread bare and there aren't enough of them (more than two) to
use one as a bath mat since then GEG wouldn't have one. I dried myself as well
as possible while still in the tub, then stepped on my wet clothes then used the
mop in the corner to soak up the water.

There is a washing machine in the corner that I learned to put my clothes. It isn't
completely water weasel safe but I would say it's far better than the floor.

More to follow.

My apartment was located above a little bar/cafe that made it's own beer and
had a house band that played each evening called the Pintagon (like the Pentagon)

If you let go the thing will pretty much drench anything that is below the 1.5 meter mark (5 feet) it's a learned skill that varies from water weasel to water weasel.

Something I couldn't get over in the FSU - why is the radical Western invention known as the "shower curtain" unknown in so many apartments?  :o  There's no problem if you're in a (rare) apartment with a dedicated shower stall, but just about every apartment I've seen has a shower over the bath, all with the flexible hose instead of the usual Western shower head fixed to the wall, and no protection for the floor or other fittings.  While there are many Western showers with a flexible hose, they ALL have the option of leaving it fixed to the wall or resting in a bracket so that you can use it "hands-free."

For those of you contemplating inviting anyone (not just a woman) directly from Eastern Europe to stay, and you have a fixed shower over the bath, make sure they know what the shower curtain is for BEFORE you let them loose in the bathroom.  :D  Chances are that, even if pulled across, the bottom of the curtain may be left outside the tub, so that you'll find a flood anyway.  :sad:

This is NOT a dig at foreigners - it's just what people are (or are not) used to.  I had never seen a bidet before I travelled to France, and had absolutely no idea how to use it.  At least I didn't flood the bathroom!

So GEG and I moved into the apartment in the video and play house.

We went to get my visa registered at the post office. GEG cut to the front
of the line and asked the bureaucrat at the desk about registering my visa.
She was sent to another line which  she also jumped. Where she was sent
back to the original line which she jumped again.

Apparently GEG annoyed the bureaucrat. The bureaucrat eventually gave
GEG the proper form to fill out. GEG began filling it out and I gave her the
information as she asked for it. GEG got bounced around from line to line. 

She had to fill out the form three times before the bureaucrat was satisfied.
A blind man could tell that GEG was pissed. When we finally got done, we
walked outside and guess who got chewed out?

1. Russian bureaucracy
2. Mean lady at the post office
3. Bill

If you guessed 1 or 2 you would be wrong.

GEG (Green Eyed Girl) started off by cutting in line, insisting on the bureaucrats
not being bureaucrats and I could tell by her tone of voice she was not treating
them as equals so they ran her through her paces as only Russian bureaucrats
know how to do.

Some American bureaucrats are the same. Some get perverse pleasure in getting
people to jump through hoops. NOTE I wrote SOME not all or most. However, it's
always been my experience that you can catch more flies with honey than with
vinegar or attitude. 

She was frustrated and basically vented on me. I let her blow off her steam but
when she went in for round two I put a stop to it. It seems she doesn't treat
everyone nicely some waiters / waitresses for example but sometimes others
as well.

I saw a few flags orange not red, I think that she is a little bit high maintenance.
Let's call it moderately high maintenance. GEG is tall, beautiful, interesting, and
has many positive attributes. I think she might make some man a good wife, but
not me since we broke up the next day.

Once again alone and far from home
« Reply #643 on: June 02, 2015, 10:21:27 AM »
So once again I am alone and far from home. I go to a internet cafe
fire up Mamba, Elena's models, free sites and social networking sites.
I write several letters and quickly have several dates, who I start
meeting as soon as possible.

I have a friend in Voronezh she is a very cute girl who Jumper and Larry
both know as a friend as well. (this is truly a small world) I will call her Sally.
She has excellent English, is funny, has a bubbly laugh and did I say she is
cute? Yes she has a photo in the dictionary under the word.

Why not pursue Sally?
I would be lying if I said I wasn't attracted to her but something inside me
tells me that she and I are destined to be friends.

I set up a meeting with a tall girl named E! who is cute speaks good English,
we have coffee / tea, walk around in the square in the snow but I don't feel
anything even slightly resembling a spark.

I meet Sally for lunch and talk about life. Sally tells me she never really liked
GEG (Green Eyed Girl) from conversations about her. (They didn't meet in person)
Sally has some kind of 7th sense about FSUW and was able to accurately predict
all kinds of conversations / situations that GEG and myself the actually happened.
Sally had GEG pegged. We eat lunch and off I go back to the internet cafe.

Where I set up a date in the evening with M!
I set up a date with E2! but she wants to change it at the last minute.

I have a few more dates nothing exciting. One girl is a smoker and another is
a stick. Not slim, not skinny but a stick. I continue setting up dates concentrating
on girls who speak some English.

Again, I meet Sally for lunch and she gives me advice/pointers as well.

I see a girl with beautiful green eyes on one of the social networking
sites. I send her a quick letter

Hi (her name here)
My name is Bill and I was looking at different profiles but when I saw
your amazing eyes I had to write you immediately. My friends say I am
tall, funny, clever and interesting (I love my friends) why don't you meet
me for coffee or tea and cake and see if my friends are correct?

Pishi!

Bill


She answers saying that her English isn't that great so I reply that one
of my friends is a translator. 

I set up a meeting at a downtown cafe. I talk to Sally and she agrees to
come along and give me her opinion as well along with a little help with
translating if necessary.

I get to the meeting, look at this girls eyes and I am stunned. Her eyes
actually radiate electricity. I have dated plenty of beautiful women. I am
stunned and amazed by how this girls eyes smile at me.

I get instant primal urges to pick up this girl and drag her to my cave.
Luckily I am able to resist the urges and sit down and talk with this girl
her name for this TR will be AE (Angel Eyes)

Sally likes the girl immediately and tells me so. 15 minutes later Sally says
"She is a smart girl." at the end of the meeting I set up another date.

After the meeting Sally and I talk. Sally is impressed with AE (Angel Eyes).
She tells me that she is a good girl. Sally rarely passes out compliments
about a girl anywhere near this frequently.

I was impressed too.

more to come. . . . .. . . ...

more to come. . . . .. . . ...

For goodness' sake, Bill!  Please ignore your family, work and any other outside commitments, and concentrate on telling this story!   :devil:  It's absolutely riveting. :clapping:

The plot thickens ...................

I have a date that evening with AE (Angel Eyes) and GEG calls me (Green Eyed Girl)

GEG explains that she rented the apartment for me and the apartment manager
had some questions as to the time I was leaving because she had another
renter who wanted it after I left. The apartment manager doesn't speak a word
of English (I know this is true) and that she needed to translate. GEG goes on to
explain that she really needs to meet me that evening since she will be busy at
work the rest of the week.

I said, "I don't know, I'm kind of busy I'll see what I can do." Which GEG
took as a yes. 

I go to meet with AE (Angel Eyes) at a Sushi place we both know about
(Sally had agreed to meet us there as well). I just as I arrive I get a text 
GEG saying that she is on the way to my apartment............  :o  :o

Don't worry it gets worse ......................

It gets worse.............

While we are waiting for our food at the Sushi place I give my camera
to Sally to take a photo of us. After Sally takes the photo Angel Eyes (AE)
asks to see.

Sally says "sure, but I want to look first." As Sally is going through the photos
she looks at me and telepathically asks about deleting GEG photos from my
camera which occurs to me as Sally is going through the photos. I don't have
the ability to communicate telepathically but I quickly nod my head, and Sally
deletes all the photos with Green Eyed Girl (GEG) in them.

Now I get another SMS from GEG telling me she would spend the night and
that we should F#CK (her words not mine) then get back together as a couple. 

Angel Eyes gets the camera from Sally and goes through the photos and explains
that tonight at midnight there is a Orthodox ceremony where they bless the water
and pass it out. She asks me if I would like to come.

Now I have an angel on one shoulder telling me to go to the water blessing ceremony
with Angel Eyes and the Devil SCREAMING in my other ear that the ceremony is going
to be
1. Long
2. At midnight
3. In Russian
4. I will NOT be getting F#cked (her words) by GEG unless I said no.
