I’m trying very hard to seize as much of these evenings as I can. With my new job I usually don’t get home before 7pm, most of the times it’s past 7:30 pm until I finally open to the door to our apartment. But these days have been so lovely and I try to pack […]

The whole story will follow later this week.

I just thought this might interest you: Somewhere between some time ago and now I actually learned how to play poker. Well, kind of. I was good enough to not lose rightaway, but not good enough to actually win. Yeah, so I lost five whole Euros gambling. Then again, that’s about half the price for […]

So, this is what happens when I buy a traveler’s guide long, loooong before we even will get to know when we are going on vacation. But I browsed through the whole thing this morning and I already have some kind of route planned out. I want me some Shaker village, and some college towns, […]

I’m catching up on reading, catching up on my TV shows, catching up on a lot of things, and eventually – hopefully not very long from now – I’ll be catching up with my blogs. Until then it will stay as it is now. The occasional entry whenever I have time. It’s not great, but […]

The biggest news might be that Peter is back from Malta. After four long weeks (that didn’t seem as long as I feared they would) I drove down all the way to Frankfurt on Saturday to pick him up. All the way actually means less than two hours, which for me was a really big […]

If you haven’t heard from me in a while, it’s because I’m either busy or tired. Busy of course means a serious amount of procrastination, including staring at both Powell’s Staff Top 5s of 2006 Picks and my Amazon wish list, which naturally grew a lot longer not long after I noticed that the Top […]

We recently got some money from my grandparents. Some as in a lot, but most of it is going directly to the big „saving-for-a-house“-account. A little of it, though, also was carefully distributed all around town on a carefully planned shopping trip to Cologne today. I knew I needed some new clothes, possibly some new […]
