I know its been a long time since I've posted, and I'm sorry, but there has been a lot going on at work. Mostly me trying to send away job applications while trying not to take heat from my boss, because her boss is yelling at her. In other news, a Latvian won the silver medal in one of the gymnastic individual competitions. There was a fire today in old town in a building that I walk by almost every day, but somehow I've never noticed it before today. I guess it was trying to get some attention. That's what happens when you ignore something like a building. They get irritable quickly. Yesterday was the 15th anniversary of the Baltic Road which was when a few million Latvians, Estonians, and Lithuanians joined hands from Tallinn to Vilnus through Riga. It was one of the largest protests during the collapse of the Soviet Union. There was a nice concert with video clips in front of the freedom monument last night. It was cold, but Lena and I stayed and watched the whole thing. The images of people protesting and being beaten by Soviet soldiers were heartwrenching and hard to watch. I'm sorry but I haven't had time to find a link for today, but if anyone has any ideas, please send them to me.
