You can have an amazingly good time at McDonald’s if you just try hard enough. Or maybe you need a nice enough McDonald’s. Who knows.

Thanks to all of you for your comments on the apartment hunting post. It really was helpful to hear – or rather: read – your thoughts and experiences. We’ll see what happens now. I’m pretty optimistic, but that’s just my usual self. This is a big step for us and hopefully everything will turn out […]

Some of these pictures kinda put things in perspective. I usually have a reading stack, but that’s like five or six books at the most.

I got myself a sunburn. In April. Well, May, actually, but still. And just from sitting on the balcony pretty much all day yesterday. I feel that I shouldn’t be so damn happy about the fact that my left arm is partly red, but I am. I also would like to say that Grey’s Anatomy […]
