The prices shown on the web pages of Estonian telecommunication providers are usually twice as high as what the people actually pay. It is general knowledge that you must reach out to service providers and ask for covert deals to get cheaper mobile plans. I usually participate in the circle jerk of contacting providers for … Continue reading WHAT YOU SEE IS *NOT* WHAT YOU GET

Holy poly! and the Dutch levels of dating
Do you consider yourself polygamous? Polyandrous? Polyamorous? To me, the definition of "polygamy" has always been straightforward - one person being in a relationship with multiple others. Turns out that the concept of "polygamy" is more nuanced. It can be split up based on who is with whom and in what way. Types of poly … Continue reading Holy poly! and the Dutch levels of dating
Shine bright like a diamond
It was about a week ago when I was strutting down the sidewalk all jolly and joyful, waving my arms around like a newly-appointed beekeeper who accidentally poked a wasp nest, when I must have lost my reflector. It probably got caught behind my flailing arms or was not secured well enough, and just popped … Continue reading Shine bright like a diamond
I’m sorry, I just can’t see it
99% of the time, I am a glasses person. However, contact lenses are safer and more comfortable when wearing a motorcycle helmet. Since I am all about saving, I have been exploring various options of getting lenses for cheap. Fortunately, lots of places offer trials for only a couple of bucks. There is a catch, … Continue reading I’m sorry, I just can’t see it
Minek.
"Minek on kümne minuti pärast. Kolmeteist, kui täpne olla. Kas sa oled valmis?" Pille tormas alles närviliselt mööda tube ringi, käes kastekann, ja üritas paaniliselt meenutada, mis tal veel tegemata on. Riided said kohvrisse, hügieenitarbed samuti. Kõiksugu juhtmed olid seinast eemaldatud - juhuks, kui vahepeal peaks äikest tulema. Sohver haaras lõviosa kodinatest ja suundus autosse. … Continue reading Minek.
Best birthday ever
On the eve of June 6, I ordered sushi. I deserved it. I was about to get a year older. Quarter of a century - that's a landmark to celebrate, they said. So I did. I ordered three sets of sushi from my favourite sushi place downtown. They don't deliver to where I live, but … Continue reading Best birthday ever

Selgeltnägijate uneproov
Nägin unes, et posu pakse kodurotte oli tuulutusrežiimil oleva akna kaudu mu üürikorterisse roninud. Neid oli julgelt vähemalt kümmekond, vahest isegi paarkümmend. Istusivad nemad ilusti minu kodukontori töölaua all minu isikliku rotipuuri peal ja sees. Olid teised üsna kopsakad ja ilmselgelt hea toidu peal olnud. Ega vist pealinnas prügipuuduse üle kurta saagi. Ilmselgelt olid nad … Continue reading Selgeltnägijate uneproov
To Leo
I saw you sitting in the corner today, panting, smiling, and looking at me. I read somewhere that dogs do not smile naturally. It's a skill only some of you adopt by observing us, humans. You seem to have picked it up, too. Little do you know what effect it has on people. I saw … Continue reading To Leo
