In the area of exciting things some stuff happened. After a very nice Thirty Seconds to Mars concert and a perfect Summer week spent watching tennis at BRD Bucharest Open it is now time to get ready for Dream Theater. It is also time to start spending some time by the pool because the Summer heat will go up to 36 in the shade which means that a nice after-work swim will be more than amazing. Just have to find a pool that is still open after 7 pm. Why 7 pm? Because I will hopefully get out of work at 6:30 pm.

My health problems are still there in my head, even so I still want to get them checked. Every joint in my body hurts stating with my ankles and ending with my fingers. I would calm down faster if I had the possibility to see my doctor but I don’t. On short, in order to avoid paying a lot of money for my visit to the physician and benefit from the basic health care program, I have to visit my doctor and get recommendations for any specialty I need. I am entitled to this program because I am employed and I pay taxes the only problem is that the system currently labels me as uninsured because my employer didn’t report me as an employee… I mean I have only been working for a month and a half… therefore I have to postpone getting my yearly blood tests and a visit to the rheumatologist. So besides being stuck with this annoying pain that is probably caused by lack of minerals and trying to control my paranoia I am also battling the system. How on world can I figure as uninsured when I am an employee? All this story got me so angry that last Wednesday I needed serious focusing in order to just chill.

On the “I must remain calm” side of the story I still find it useless to force the red light and run after the tram just to get to work 5 minutes earlier every morning. So far my plan seems to work and I can enjoy my morning ride to the office accompanied by a good book. One of the annoying parts of public transportation happened last Saturday when I was going home at around 11 in the evening: while waiting for the trolly some really nice guys from the neighborhood thought it was cool and smart to scream out loud every obscene word they knew in all possible combinations and to every passer by. They went as far as placing themselves in the doorway of the trolly and screaming some more at the passengers. Disgusting and scary and, even more, frighting because while they were doing this, their friends, girls among, were amusing themselves terribly because probably in their opinion, these guys were doing something really, really cool.

But to end the story in a more happy tune, in case you don’t know or if you knew but you forgot, Romania has amazing water melons and the production is at its peak right now. So kick back, relax and enjoy, from the fridge they go amazingly well on hot… extremely hot Summer days.
