Today (Thursday 3/18)

Today is "Army Day", apparently the male equivalent of Women's Day. Although not every male qualifies for soldier-status recognition, the school is celebrating all of the male staff members with a dinner tonight that we women-folk are cooking for them. I wonder if karaoke is in the offing for this evening, although I doubt it since tomorrow is a work day. I walked down to the Russian Embassy after my first class and picked up my visa for my train transit to Moscow.
