Today I met four nice people who were visiting from Poland, and one of them suggested that I visit Poland–which considering how close it is to where I live, is entirely a reasonable suggestion. They’re from Gdansk which isn’t as easy to get to, but might be a better choice than some of the larger cities that are becoming tourist havens.
Additionally, I shouldn’t have drunk the Glühwein at 4 this afternoon. I had planned on going and reading something at a coffee shop. Instead I decided it would be wiser to not read anything academic.
See, you leave the country and you lose your moral compass. I am *so* very disappointed. You need the religous right wing to get you back in line. (Ha!)
Speaking of moral compass… Canada’s high court just approved gay marriage.
In other news… Reports of the impending end of the world did not show up in the headlines, but I think I did see something about baby jeebus crying.
