Born too late to watch the collapse of the Russian empire, born too early to watch the collapse of the Russian empire, born just in time to watch the collapse of the Russian empire.
I was technically in Czechoslovakia for the Velvet Revolution, but I was at the time slightly preoccupied sorting my shapes and colours and potty training.
Just imagine if I got to see Russia collapse in my lifetime. I missed out on the last one by a few years, unfortunately.
Born too late to watch the collapse of the Russian empire, born too early to watch the collapse of the Russian empire, born just in time to watch the collapse of the Russian empire.
The last few hundred years of Russian history can be succinctly summarized as, “…and then, it got worse.”

Glad to see I’m getting a second chance.
