It’s approximately 9 p.m. Less than one hour ago I was still at work. I’m hardcore like that.
The weather has been terrible all week. I think it has constantly rained. I am lucky I live on the first floor (second floor to you on the other side of the Atlantic), as I am less likely to suffer damages during a massive flood.
As a result of the terrible weather I have been incredibly inactive this week. I really wanted to start bicycling to work this week but don’t want to do so in the dark and damp. I did go for a short run today (7 km) but that’s it since the Sunday tour. I hope this weekend will be nicer.
Tomorrow I am going to a colleague’s for Linsen und Spätzle mit Saitenwürstchen. I am very excited for this. I will prepare some feta pate to bring along.
This weekend is the time change here in Europe. I am looking forward to this as well. I welcome more evening light.
I am moving offices at work. Well, actually, someone else is doing the actual moving but I will be going to a new place on Monday. Same address and phone number, just different building and office. Same floor number, so it’s not really an upgrade.
I have something like eight working days left before I am on vacation. Vacation is quite welcome now. And it will mark the beginning of my visitors to Europe. That’s pretty thrilling.
I’ve turned the heat down in my apartment. it now feels chilly in here. I should turn it up but I am hopeful that it is inviting the warmer weather.
I submitted all of my details for taxes to the KPMG International Executive Services team so that they can prepare my taxes in by two countries of residence of 2008. I have been learning a little bit about the differences in our tax systems and it is interesting. And all the same, really.
I enjoyed cucumber sandwiches just now. They were pretty delicious. Notice the plural.
