Today is a holiday in both Austria and Macedonia, so no work! I scheduled a Macedonian lesson, though, and tennis after that. And then I'll probably walk from the tennis court to the center -- nice walk along the river -- and meet at the gym with Irene and Hannah. Such a lot of exercise means that there'll be well-deserved pizza afterwards.

For as long as my teacher can manage to squeeze them into his schedule, I'm having 3 Macedonian lessons a week, one of them exclusively for conversation. I had that one yesterday -- complete catastrophe, because I wasn't aware that one hell of a migraine was starting. It always begins in a different way, and sometimes the pain comes very late. Yesterday it started with speech problems, and at first I thought I merely couldn't concentrate and apologized to Dalibor. 45 minutes later the pain started, and so at least I knew I hadn't lost all my Macedonian overnight. Small consolation, because I had to take painkillers and stay at the office -- with the boss absent, there was no way I could go home at 11.30. But I made it through the day and then had the perfect excuse not to attend an incredibly boring event I ought to have gone to.

If I can manage to get somebody to take a nice picture of me I'll post it -- new hair colour and new glasses ought to be recorded properly.
