First night out in Serbia

Saturday Susie and I met Dejan, his girlfriend, and some of his friends in the city center. Poor Susie had to deal with the only single guy that came...he latched onto her within 10 seconds of arriving. It was kind of funny, but I felt bad for her. This guy, Petr, was all up in her space immediately. It was almost unreal...Susie kept moving backward and even ended up putting her hands out in front of her to ward the guy off, but he kept on coming. This continued the entire night, despite repeated refusals and physical avoidance on Susie's part. Petr came up to around Susie's chin, and she is 5'3"...oy...she's also 12 years younger than this guy. We laughed about it later, but Susie was not happy that she had to fend him off all night. Luckily, I was able to help her with this task...I'm kind of big and scary to a little 36 year old fuzzy man. Why can't guys just take a hint?

We did have a good time, though, and made some more friends. Some of our new friends called us up the following night to go out as well. That was more relaxed than Saturday, but still a good time. Unfortunately, Susie had a migraine and wasn't able to go. Mima, one of the girls we met Saturday, helped us locate some pain medication that Susie can have, since she can't take any ibuprofen, which was very nice of her. We are hoping she won't have to use it, but it is nice to have. Other than that, we are just chillin'. I went and bought a couple of books today because I have nothing to read since Iberia still hasn't gotten my lost bag to Katie, and we laid around and read on our lovely balcony. This is the life! As one of our new friends said, "In Serbia, time is pleasure." I like that, it is so much nicer than "time is money", and it is a hell of a lot more fun!
