I partied this weekend. Hard. It was great!
I got invited early Saturday morning by Sandra (pictured above) and Emmerich to the Blue Revolution Party in Krems a.d. Donau, sponsored by Red Bull. They had very nicely bought me a ticket! :-)
The party had 3 seperate dance halls, 6 bars (3 of which were VIP, which basically meant their were comfy chairs and tables), and over 15 DJ's. Sandra and I mainly stayed in Dance Hall #2 because that is where the best and most danceable to music was. I stayed out until around 4:30am, and did not fall asleep until 5:00 am. So I have finally discovered what it feels like to be a party animal. muaaaaahahahaha.
Friday night was equally as exciting, because I had a man pass out right next to me while I was at a talk on Tibet and Nepal. It was amazing to see how NO ONE responded to me yelling at them to give me a cell phone to call the Rettung (144, Austria's 911).
The poor man passed out twice and vomitted all over himself, and then said he didn't need to go to the hospital... and so I am standing there saying outloud... "Nein, nein, nein, wir müssen den Rettung anrufen. Du musst ins Spital gehen, keine Frage." I have never seen someone look white, grey, and blue at the same time. It was quite frightening.
I think he was having the beginning of a heart attack, signs being the presence of vomit and loss of conciousness.
Any way.
Sorry this post is slightly durcheinander...
I am now feeling the need of having a puppy INTENSELY.... I need animal love. badly. every other weekend is simply not enough... HOWEVER, there are NO animal shelters or pet stores anywhere NEAR me that I could volunteer at. NONE. it's quite pathetic. grrr.
Amy and I spent quite a long time this morning discussing our overwhelming need for a dog and sending puppy pictures back and forth...
I am currently obsessed with the American Bulldog.

Wow! Two Gorgeous Ladies! I am so glad you had a great party time! What ever happened to the poor man? Were you able to call the 911 #? M
You look great Marion! Glad you had such a fun weekend!
I totally agree with needing animal companionship. Right now all I can have is hamsters because Alex is horribly allergic to anything with fur so cats and dogs are out of the question. I am really wanting a dog right now though. American Bulldogs are definitely cute :-)
I thought we had landed on the baby hippo as the pet of choice!!
Anyway...your looking sassy in that photo (I approve), but that second night sounded like not quite as enjoyable. Remember you can be Aunty Marion to my Christmas Present whenever she arrives :)
Bulldogs are definitely cooler than whatever ankle-biter you were in to when you went across the pond.
That pic of you and Sandra made me miss partying at the clubs in Italy. Sigh.
REB
Marion, all your photos are beautiful. Hope life is treating you well!
xoxo,
Veronica
