From Russia vith Love, Dahlink!

What a lovely crew the Brittikis are (my new name for y'all)! I could not have had a better time with you all, save if SLP had not so inconveniently closed their doors Wednesday evening (BAStards!). Mr and Mrs Cheeky Half were a pure delight (thanks for the GREAT Tucson t-shirt!), as were The Kon-Hemsby's and CheekyTiki and the SuperCoolAussie Anjy. I eagerly await the development of the fotos of painting-mimicking by the TV bathroom door....

All is well in St. Petersburg, with only a wayfaring shrimp chip spoiling my first meal (I brought the Ipecac, so the offending substance was, um, ejected before causing damage), and the hotel's having temporarily having lost my passport card (without which I might not have the left the country!!). (What has been WITH my past week?!?) But now all is great and I have seen outrageously gilt everything.

But no tikis.

But three palm trees in paintings. That's the closest to Russky Tiki there is, folks. But I shall continue to search.

Actually, the Hermitage is tomorrow, where there is an abundance of Gaugin's. I consider him the tiki-est of the (almost)Grand Masters. I'm just crossing my fingers that they are not all out on loan to the big exhibition currently in, what, Boston? THAT would suck.

But Russia does NOT suck! Nope, not one bit :)

Oh, and MrSmiley, by birthday is actually a few days away still. But everyone can celebrate it all month long, no?
