17-V-2000.

Lena had some nagging problem in her breast. Not knowing the procedure, not even understanding the questions they were asking, we went straight to a specialist. Who basically said she probably got hit by a ball during a PE class, and it's a sensitive area, her future tit buds are at a tender stage before they acually start growing, so it probably hurts a bit more than an equal hit on other parts would.

Since we didn't know how to play exactly by the rules, the cost of 85$ for this ten minute consultation was never refunded. That's all I got for the extra 30$ a month that I was forking out for some extra coverage (which I didn't quite understand either).

Go and Nina work at Zero from time to time, 3-4 hours a day, thursday through sunday. Nothing big, and no coding, just graphic work, drawing images for buttons, and Ford is scheduling them*. He hired his sons too. Just now I asked Nina whether they got any money for that, she said no, and it didn't last either, perhaps 2-3 weeks, until Ford saw that he doesn't know what to tell them to do. He imagined some round buttons, and they were working on them until one saturday he saw how it looked and gave up on the whole idea.

He was among the first examples that I met in person (and then dozens on UA and elsewhere) who never learned abstract thinking. They have to see it or it doesn't exist in their mind, even if it's their own idea.

On the other hand, when we bought a machine for Go from Zero, we didn't pay.

And I finally got the report about the financials of Avai for 1999. Don't remember anything, and wouldn't bother to open it again, even now. At home, they're arresting members of Otpor! to the tune of 20 in Novi alone. B92 was off the air today. Police and citizens clashed on Slavija (as per Joška's report). New Hossy is officially renamed to Hossy 2000, to make it „self explanatory“ to the customers of the old one, so all the documentation needs to be updated to reflect this. „Now we need to make sure its initial release is completed well within the 2000 year :)“ (wrote Marcus Marvinskis). Peja expects a daughter this time.

Last batch of photos from the little Seiko, two self portraits of Go. These will be called selfies in a few years.

* in the email with the schedule, Rich is mentioned, about that kid. I'm also wary of a potential snafu, because Burt was supposed to arrive at the time when I'm shuttling the girls
