I have Internet for 2 days now. I'll try to start writing.
This is my second month in Moscow with 8 1/2 days break in Boston.

It splits my mind: I see Moscow rich and Moscow poor, paid health care and free care, stores for people and stores for those who pay threefold, live-in home aids with families far from Moscow. Going out, leaving the apartment blows my mind too.

I should install phonetic keyboard and switch to Russian.

That was the primary objective of installing Internet here. It worked out - I managed to show my children live through Skype / webcam to my Dad yesterday. He could barely talk but he liked seeing them and remembered it today.
