Go to Metro and have the almond cake

Well. What a change, a peachy day! Lovely weather, good food, amusing conversation, and good luck. Ha! Take that Twilight Zone.

We've been approved for the apartment, a huge relief. I think I will start cleaning and packing certain things this weekend. One more month. Also, the post office finally found my certified letter they lost, and I picked it up this morning. Exactly 31 days after I mailed it. Gracious. Damn post office. I'm nervous to mail anything.

I ate the most delicious almond cake this afternoon in Metro. Oh, full of almond slices and dusted with powdered sugar, it was fabulous. Mmm, a perfect treat with my coffee. I was sorely tempted by the chocolate hazelnut biscotti. Geoff and Deb are coming by for dinner tonight.

So many sirens today. I hear them in every class, and twice while at Metro. What is this? It just makes me feel strange. Since I read the Novak book I have been paying more attention to the strangeness of American daily life. Now I think I will run out into the last of the daylight....

I'm not sure what it is. But every day this week, I've heard at least one siren during Czech, if not several during the day. It's just odd.
