Important things you should know...

#1 My Birthday is in 9 Days

#2 I am revisiting The Tudors and can't stand King Henry or any of his wives except Anne of Cleves...dude you really blew it there....I am now more than ever wanting to visit Hampton Court. Also, I am looking into buying a Tudor Rose ornament and stationary. Why ? Because I think it's unique and special.

#3 I want this freaking election to be over and done. Facebook is a horrible place to learn about the various candidates.  I am neither on one side or the other. I am disappointed in everyone.  You wonder why I want to leave to England or Iceland ? I am sure that many people share with me the same feelings...

#4 I went to the Opera and saw La Boheme . Really very good. I went a few years ago...maybe 5 to the San Francisco Opera and that was good too ...oh and at Eton College. I liked all of them. People fear the Opera because they have never been. There are subtitles, you can read the performance before you see it, people don't sing obnoxiously...there are no fat ladies.

Not Acceptable 

All sorts of people go the the opera. There was a man dresssed like an old lady with her date who was dressed like a man ( who was a women) and this man had his entire body covered in tattoos. It did not make me vomit, what made me vomit was his pierced ears. THAT made me vomit.

acceptable

 What does not make me vomit is if you come from a country that does that because it's their tradition and culture.

Bratislava Castle 

#5 I just learned of some moving options: India and Slovakia. All I can say is that it is near Vienna..and that is perfectly acceptable in my book. It borders the Ukraine
