Question for all of you who live two time zones east of here and more:
How is 2005 so far? Better than 2004?
If not, I might choose to stay when I am. I need a year that’s better than the old one. Like desperately need it.
And to all of you:
Have a happy new year!
We still have [...]

No Wonder We Have Food Left

Are my posts too long?
I am getting traffic from blogexplosion.com recently but either my blog is completely boring or something else keeps YOU from commenting, blogmarking, rating, whatever.
Now I wonder: Are my posts too long?
Because I realize that when you surf upon a blog you don’t know there has to be something on the very [...]

Do you remember my weekly freezer column?
Yeah, I didn’t think so. As I predicted it was probably the ultimate doomed-to-fail column of all time. I’m still thinking about it every time I open my freezer, so in my heart it’s still life.

I got myself a copy of Judith Hermann’s ‘Sommerhaus, später’ yesterday. I had heard [...]

…as in no-more-glasses.
We just came back from the optician and we both are wearing contacts at the moment. It was Pi’s idea to try contacts and somewhere along the road I decided I wanted to try some, too. I already had contacts for some years until a few years ago when I simply was too [...]

The apartments on ground/first floor are really one apartment because [...]

So, I really, really wanted to run today. Even the weather forecast promised me some kind of warm weather (warm for this season). I still can’t bring myself to run when it’s too cold. I know that it’s supposed to be even better, but I’m not ready for that yet.
Now, how can I run when [...]

Of course I couldn’t wait to show you our great Christmas gift. So here it is.
This isn’t a fantastic picture but it’s as good as I could do at the moment.

Here’s my brief account of my Christmas days. I won’t go into much detail here since it’s already late and I know myself to know that once I go a little bit into detail I’m already so deep in that it will definitely take me a really long time to finish this post.

So, merry christmas everyone.
I suppose that part of you won’t get their presents until tomorrow, but we do celebrate christmas tonight, so I’m all excited and knee-deep in preparations. It’s only going to be Pi and I tonight. My parents asked us if we would like to come over and celebrate with them, but we [...]
