and when it’s later
open up your window just in case
you’re a radar, built to scan the deeps of outer space
and if you recognize subtle patterns in the sky
you’ll take it as a sign unless it eases your mind

let me share with you about czech beer. czech beer is cheap. ‘how cheap?” you silently ask, and i shall tell you. very. ha. no, but really i bought beer for 7 krouns. 4 krouns i will get back when i return the bottle. that means of course that the beer was 3 krouns. 3 krouns to american dollars is 10¢. good golly.

however, last night lukáš and i went to a pub. we played some table soccer (foosball) and those guys are ridiculously good. they will have no competition from the states. then, i bought a round of beer. this 16 year old started hitting on me. (what is it with teenagers now? jokes, stef, jokes) but she stopped when she found out i was 26. though she was in disbelief.

but everyone was heavy drunk by the end of the night. though we had not planned for it. i spent about $14 on me and my czech friends. what a time- most speak english, but i was trying what little czech i know. and the pipe was a smash hit.
