As many of you know, I was born in St. Pete. I've lived there for years. What I hate about this place is rainy weather. One day I went to work and didn't take my umbrella with me. Because what could go wrong, huh? It was that rare kind of autumn day that you only find in St. Pete.
Over there, they call it Indian summer. But it was just typical St. Pete autumn when you can expect literally anythyng from Mother Nature. I was walking home when it suddenly started to rain. The mercury was falling fast. It was colder than the Devil's heart, raining ice pitchforks, as if the Heavens were ready to fall. Everyone was running for shelter like there was no tomorrow. Taxi prices have skyrocketed in a moment and the rain was comin’ down like all the angels in heaven decided to take a piss at the same time. When you’re in a situation like mine, you can only think in metaphors.
I came home soaked to the skin and I could not stand it anymore. The next day I packed my bag, boarded Sapsan train and never came back. I've no regrets about that decision.

For the last few years I've heard a lot of people saying that Skolkovo project is a total failure and a disaster. I bet these people have never been to the shawarma kiosk near the railway station. This is so delicious and a lifesaver when you are hungry. Besides, these kebabs are SO big. Before I visited this place for the first time I thought you could get kebab this big only in Rostov-on-Don. I'm sure, if Ronald McDonald had visited this place, he would never have started his own food chain.

Planning on visiting some electric power plants next week. Man, I love electricity!
I had to postpone these visits. Sorry, guys, I had some more important stuff to do.
The ancestors of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth continue to do their petty mischiefs, just before the main "Polish" holiday in our country – the National Unity day. First, they are taking away a recreation base from Russian embassy, then they are going to build some fence on our border.
But it's a remarkable holiday. As you know, this day on year 1612, our people of different ranks and blood, they've have forgotten about their conflicts, united to defend our Homeland and finally kicked this jackbooted Polish rabble out of Moscow.
And then, big rough patch has started for them, with limitless partitions of Poland, and this rough patch lasted for three centuries.
Taking into account the policy of the current proprietors of Warsaw Suvorov's Cadet Military Corps building and of Viceroy Palace (coincidentally, it's now a Prime Minister's and President's residence now), I wonder if there will be the next one soon😄 ?
