This is a close apporiximation of the conversation Andreas and I had yesterday about the work situation around Karneval next year. Me: So, where’s the logic here? We have the day off on Monday and they’re serving lunch and on Thursday we don’t have a day off and they don’t serve lunch? They could just […]

I’m at work but ready to leave. Got here a little bit late today, since Pi has a three-day English course in Cologne this week and we took the train together. Anyway, I didn’t get much done today, but made some efforts in maintaining social contacts here. Meaning: I met Kerstin at the coffee bar […]

Here’s something I wrote yesterday but the internet connection was a mess and so I wasn’t able to post it. It’s really late, but I’m going to at least write a short post about what happened today. As I said we went to Cologne where we first spent some time at a bookstore. I have […]

We’re going to Cologne in twenty minutes. This is not particularly a great event since I go to Cologne every workday, but still. We’re going shoppin‘ and I’m with my man. Now that’s something. We thought about going to Wuppertal, but it’s more expensive and we don’t really know our way around in Wuppertal, so […]

Our poor freezer got defrosted again. I haven’t had the chance to look inside it yet, but I certainly have to think of something that includes chicken for dinner. I woke up this night and checked the alarm clock. Strangely enough, because I usually don’t check my alarm clock when I wake up during the […]

It’s 7:36 am and I’m already at work. This morning at 6 am Pi complained that my alarm clock goes off every ten minutes and he couldn’t sleep, so I decided to get up. So far I’m alone in this part of he office. The office here is divided into three parts, one is for […]

I ran for about 30 minutes. It was pretty nice and I could enjoy the fresh air and the dark and almost empty streets. Pi isn’t home yet. I stopped by the indoor pool to see if I would be there when he was just leaving coincidentally, but it didn’t happen, so I continued to […]

I get home and I am a mess. Right now it’s all too much (don’t ask for details, just know that our life isn’t full of joy at the moment) and I don’t know how much more I can take and not break down. I would love to just stay in bed and cry but […]

I shouldn’t post from work. This is the second time a long post got erased accidentally. I wanted to tell you about my frustrating search for jobs on the internet, our evening at Helene’s place and a lot more and now I lost all motivation. Also, I’m still searching for jobs in another browser and […]

Today I couldn’t get up as early as yesterday. I kept hitting the snooze button until it was 7:30 am, then finally decided I needed to get up somewhen and it might as well be now. It’s not even like I was especially tired and needed the sleep. It was nearly the opposite. Every time […]
