18-IX-2016.
Lena and Milan visited today. It's not that they never visit together, it's just that this is the first regular visit, without any special occasion. Just had lunch, I had a drink (as he took parents' car so I wouldn't drive) and we didn't invite dad. He's always driving the same scenario, trying to nudge everyone into the rakija-soup-rakija-main course order, then wine or beer, then he gets sleepy but won't take a nap, sits and nods off and pulls up and goes home just about when everyone's already tired. And all the worse if he gets into one of his believer stories. Namely, he was a staunch communist while he was a member, now he's religious again, and claims all the right wing propaganda about četniks et all is dry truth. I got a pdf with scanned documents of their HQ from the war years, where its all laid bare (and which the new historians just chose to ignore), and I'm still wondering whether to put that on his machine or not. So he was out today.
And if he ever again tells me to order my guests around, I'll get loud and in his face. Which I already did a few times, but he forgot.
After lunch we went to Lalinski, to pick the accumulated bills and have a walk around. Unfortunately, when we were just about to go, she had Lena try out the new sweater (vilhelmina at work), and she laid the keys on the ironing board and forgot about them. So we kissed the gate, had a bit of a look over the fence, picked the bills we could (most of them, except the latest).
Meanwhile, sGradlj.com was discovered by some people on facebook, who seem to be in good relationships with lots of friends - they collectively found my dictionary of derogatory terms and enjoyed it. At the same time, a bunch of guys in Montenegro discovered my dictionary of serbian-english false friends, and enjoyed it back and forth, adding some 200 clicks to the pile. The daily total was over 1200 - the previous peak was around 800. This petered out over the following two days (still above the average, which is about 300 clicks a day). In the end of the months, was a few dozen short of 10k clicks.
I'm getting a bit confused - the last shot I made with the old eos40 was on 19th. It's Višnja's recipe for cabbage croissants (as in „raskupusane“ - which is a word used for any book which was leafed over too many times and the pages are coming loose; such dough is used here). For a while I thought the split happened now and not on 12-IX-2016., but then remembered that this is actually in her handwriting, was in some old copybook, and I shot it just so it doesn't get lost and she can keep it onscreen while making them.
Meanwhile, Višnja found a small apartment and a new sponsor, and took the couch, armchair, fridge, washer, stove and TV with her. Now that Oma is in a home for five years now, Arpi replenished the appliances and furniture from her house.
