They very fat and fried!»

If I was born in Switzerland in village, kilometres in forty from Basel, I would own a horse and a pony. The horse I would take together with myself to Berlin and would arrange it in a stable near to airport Schönefeld. My pony would be already by then in advanced years, and I would leave it at parents in village.

On an immemorial theme “survivals of the woman in labour collective” are written innumerable articles in “Cosmo” and the other glossy magazines, generously decorated photos of the models dressed in "business" suits, shifonovye blouses and hairpins, and also containing a great lot of "valuable" advice about that, “how to twist the boss”, “to construct successful career”, and what to do, “if the chief – the stinker”.

For quite some time now to me began to seem, that my life loses any value if at least its small slices do not remain in the written down form. Words have started to appear on turns of draught listings of scientific articles which I in a chronic mode write on work. At me it is a lot of turns, they never will come to an end, I never will manage to use up them. I have written my first diary almost one year ago, and it was called New York diary. The innocent whim has strongly become a habit, and here again something is written, and to name to me it it would be desirable so: «the Diary of the Wife». For me the best time to write is time of flight and therefore, the best place is the plane. In any other place I precisely will have doubts: «Instead of whether to be engaged in something more useful?» But the plane takes dispersal to fly up, on the next armchair at a window near to me the husband, and, thus, flies up the diary name is completely justified. Well, have departed!
