Fun Thursday in Vienna


Oh boy oh boy! I love Thursdays! And the sun is shining and it is just a glorious morning! I jalked again this morning and it felt great. I'm still sore but it will be worth it. Right? Right.

I am very much looking forward to this evening because I am going to two events. What am I, a socialite? No. But how I wish I was. I really do. I'm double eventing tonight because I am wild. First up is Kulturen bitten zu Tisch which is a multicultural event featuring food from around the world. Also, it is an event to bring attention to inter-cultural dialogue. I am totally not describing this event as well as I should be but I am tired. Just come. It's awesome. My friend helps organize it with her organization and I went last year and had a blast. I watched her give a speech and I felt like a stage mom. If you are in Vienna and you are looking for some awesome food and international performances, check it out. Here is the Facebook page www.facebook.com/events/553479451436874/

I will be there, wearing yellow, stuffing my face. I am feeling ok about my hair today so feel free to come over and say hi.

After I make my way around the world, drink some wine, chat and act popular, I will head over to the Volksgarten and attend a BBQ; A Pig Night Out. Nothing says summer like charred meat so I am going to have to dislocate my jaw to be able to take in more food. Might have to buy a new dress on Saturday just in case. A billowy, tent-like thing will be just what the doctor ordered.

If you are interested in this event, check out their Facebook page and join up www.facebook.com/events/408398215967873/

I will get there around 7 or so and will still be wearing yellow but probably accessorizing it with food stains from around the world because I am fancy like that. Come say hi. I will be nervously eating meat and hoping I have Tums at home.

Happy Thursday!

A Key Word Post

I didn't have anything specific to post tonight because nothing terribly exciting happened over the weekend. Which is actually a good thing. That means it was a chillaxed weekend with no need to look up divorce lawyers or boarding schools for toddlers. So, that means that I will write things based on some key words... long story short, lots of short stories. So here we go! The daycare: This morning was my morning to bring the Kid. By 8 he was in his coat and shoes and I was in my fake fur vest and heels. We headed out and rounded the corner and walked through the front gate. He jumped out of his stroller and headed to the front door. It was locked. I tried a couple times to open it and the Kid started to whine. One of the providers came to the door and explained the daycare was closed for the day. Apparently it was staff development day and someone (the Husband) did not see the signs up last week that they were closed today. I apologized and tried to call the Husband while tryi

A Tova Movie Re-cap: Bram Stoker's Dracula

You all like that I am reviewing films that are over 20 years old, right? I'm like Grandpa Simpson. Today's post is a re-cap of one of my all time favourite Halloween movies EVER. And it isn't just a Halloween movie.. it is so much more. It is Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula. I remember exactly when I saw this film for the first time. We were at my Godmother's cottage in Quebec and my parents and I and my brother headed to the video store. I stood in front of this VHS cover and stared and stared (that's how I would let my parents know I wanted something back in the day. I was not allowed to beg for toys so in my brilliant infantile wisdom, I concocted a full proof plan. I would stand in front of a toy (probably a My Little Pony) and stare and stare and stare. I was subtle. I still do this today at jewelry stores.) I was 12 years old at the time and had graduated from being fascinated with witches to vampires. Puberty, guys. I was OBSESSED wi

The Way Some People Find my Blog and a Challenge

Image
Now, I am not sure why people read my blog. O.k., there are some reasons that people read my blog... they are interested in autism, they like my use of gifs, they are my friends and want to support me, sometimes I make them laugh, they want to see if they are mentioned in it, they live in Vienna and want to know where I go so they can avoid bumping into me... I don't have a sophisticated stat counter on my blog. The only thing I can really see is the number of page views, which countries those page views are coming from and what people search for and somehow end up on my blog. So I decided today to post the most common terms that bring people to my page. And some of them are amusing. Pros and cons to living in Vienna : This one is pretty understandable. I did a whole "pros vs. cons" post a while ago. I think if I had to move to a new city I would most likely type in the same thing. As well as, "average price of alcohol".
