DRINKING COMPANION part 2
Twenty minutes later, Vitya left, and we were also finishing our drinks. At two o'clock in the morning we separated. In the morning, naturally, my head ached. I was surfing the Internet, the TV was on in the room. Suddenly on the news I heard a message that interested me: — Tonight there was another murder in the N district. The victims turned out to be a young married couple walking at night near their house. Police said the crime was most likely the work of a serial killer with four murders to his name up to this point. According to witnesses, the murder occurred at approximately one in the morning. Investigators were able to quickly identify the killer - he turned out to be Viktor Sokolov, born in 1974, a native of Moscow. The criminal has been put on the federal wanted list. If you have information about the whereabouts of the criminal, please call the numbers below...

DRINKING COMPANION part 1
DRINKING COMPANION I am a 26-year-old guy, I live in Moscow, I work as a lawyer in a private company. My grandparents had an apartment, but first my grandfather died, then my grandmother, and my wife and I moved into the apartment. The house was an ordinary five-story Khrushchev building. In the courtyard there were some red brick ruins - it was hard to say whether there had been some kind of warehouse before, or a transformer box. These ruins had a bad reputation, often syringes or drugs were found there, there was a case where someone was raped, and once even a corpse was found. The ruins were mainly used as a place to go to the toilet.

A few things I forgot to mention.
On Monday, I published a piece about ballet, and being a ballerina. As usual, I took a few detours I wasn’t expecting and ended up giving more of a pep talk than I anticipated. So just another day, as far as I’m concerned. But there are two things that I should have elaborated on, and they’ve been nagging me ever since I hit “publish,” but by that time I felt like the piece was long enough, and I also didn’t want to go in and make any edits. I thought maybe the thoughts would go away, and you wouldn’t know the difference anyway. But they didn’t, so here you go. Today will be brief. Maybe. I think.

"The Dance of Motion and Stillness: Navigating Life's Rhythms with Purpose"
"The Dance of Motion and Stillness: Navigating Life's Rhythms with Purpose" In the intricate tapestry of my existence, I am a perpetual mover, both in the physical realm and within the spheres of my professional life. A dedicated practitioner of movement, I find myself oscillating between various postures during work – whether standing tall or perched on my Motion Stool, a tool designed to engage my core muscles actively.
