Sorry I haven't posted more. I really don't feel very well and haven't really slept in the last couple of days. I can get a couple hours of unavoidable sleep but am up hours before daybreak. This couch is pretty comfortable on the whole to crash on but I can't fully straighten my legs on it so it's hard to do all the movements I have to do at night to keep it from waking me up from the discomfort… but it's better than the alternatives so it's kind of a damned if you do damned if you don't thing.
I went and saw Borat today and sitting next to me was a Russian mother and son (he was translating parts of the movie for her). It was quite interesting watching what they laughed at — the racial humor and the Jew jokes they loved, as they did the farcical scenes of Borat not understanding or doing something strangely, but when they were overtly calling Eastern Europeans backwards, they became silent, and it was very obvious that they were unhappy when Borat was referred to as Russian… But they sure laughed when Uzbekistan was made fun of!
