Weekend Wind-down


While Romanians voted to keep Basescu in office over the weekend, there was also another major election--that of Miss Travesty Romania. In addition to the lovely contestant pictured, more can be found here. Hopefully they won't be too upset with me using their picture, as I gave them proper due. Actually, I don't think ten years ago a contest such as this would have been dreamed of, so the EU has brought some changes, though obviously not everyone is happy on the political front. Luckily, with the political situation the way it is, the ladies can continue to perfect their travesty, and we can hope the government doesn't become one as well.
For me, the weekend hasn't been terribly productive, but that happens now and again. I am looking forward to things building up this week, and a friend from Peace Corps Romania will be visiting next weekend for the NW Folklife Festival. Really, that is about it, and hopefully next weekend won't be quite as dismal as this one.
