I am SO pissed off and need to rant right now...
This weekend we hosted two Russian ladies from The Carter Center that were attending Domestic Violence Awareness training in DC. We've hosted various Russians from the Carter Center in the past and it's always a lot of fun, a hoot. Hubby Sven speaks fluent Russian. The purpose of the weekend program is to give Russian leaders a chance to experience the life of an average American for a weekend. Usually what happens is we pick them up in DC, they stay in our guest room, we take them to the Shenandoah National Park, shopping at Wal Mart (number 1 request of all Russians), go hiking, cook, eat, laugh, drink and just have a fun time.
Not this weekend. This time our gruesome two arrived, acted rather snotty and unfriendly and immediately holed up in their room, not even coming out for dinner. The next morning they emerged and demanded to be taken back to DC because, get this, we live in a rural/suburban area and they wanted to go shopping at the high end shops and go to all the museums, things they could have told us earlier. As we were loading the car these two got to witness our trashy across the street neighbor beat his wife's head in with a hammer, the cops, ambo and press arrive. One of them is a professor that goes around Russian training law enforcement how to properly recognize and treat domestic violence and the other is the head of a Russian government agency dedicated to reducing the high rates of domestic violence in Russia. Awk-ward!
So today I'm feeling all sorts of frustrated, especially after hearing from the program coordinator that the two were upset that their quarters here. We live in a nice 4 bedroom cape cod with lots of upgraded features. They stayed in my son's recently remodeled/repainted room. The floor was new, I put new bedding on the beds, they had a remodeled bathroom with fresh paint and flooring. I put flowers in there, the room was beautifully decorated with all new furniture and lamps. In the bath I put out the nicest toiletries and extras. They trashed the room, trash on the floor, abandoned shoe boxes, bottles of water and left over teacups everywhere have filled with tea leaving nice little watermarks on most of the new furniture.
So I scrubbed the house, cooked like a mule and made everything as welcoming and perfect as I could and these bitches acted like nothing was good enough. Well fuck you both Ms. Russias.
