Good news, weirds lunch habits and swimming
So today I found out I can most likely (98%) stay living in the appartment that I am now living in for the rest of my time here. Really great. A place all for me with no-one coming to make my bed in the morning or clean my bathroom for me. (That's what they do in the company housing.) I can also have as many guests as I want over for as long as I like. (No over-night guests allowed in the company housing.) So everyone: welcome for a visit!
Ok, so I go to have a sandwich for lunch like every other day in a cafe outside the company property. (Every other day I eat with my friends.) So I go and ask for the one "ohne fleisch" and a smoothie-like drink. No problem there but you should see what some of the people have. Like yesterday this one man had the opposite of what I was having. He had this huge piece of meat on this little roll. I think it is some sort of sausage-like thing but it's huge. They cut the people like 2*15*15 cm pieces from this block of processed meat. It might not sound weird but seeing that blob of meat on like a 5cm (diameter) roll sort of has me wondering. I think the roll is there just to keep peoples hands clean while eating the meat. I mean I used to wonder when my little brother put like 5 slices of meat on his sandwiches but compared to this that was nothing.
Didn't go to the skating thing yesterday even though I got new bearings. I went swimming instead. No suprise there. I'm going again today as long as it doesn't start raining. Looks a bit like it might. But me and my friends should be going out for pizza anyway. We found this good Italian restaurant on Monday. Big pizzas made with fresh ingredients. Last time I wasn't hungry so I just had some tiramisu they made fresh just for me. It was good and there was a lot of it.

Just wait till you see all the Knoedels and the rest of the interesting German cooking... I wonder if they make greasy vegetarian sausages nowadays at the kiosks... Hugs from Ireland.

It's now nearing the end of my thesis work. There's like 600 pictures from which I have to analyze drop sizes. I think I might go crazy. Anyhow, after I get that done it's to modelling the size changes and then a bit (30 pages) of writing and it should be done. Soooo... then I'll come and visit! ;) Ireland too.
I hear James Dean Bradfield has a solo album out. Must go buy I suppose. As well as the new DJBB (been listening to it illegally for a while) :o
U must be way tanned by now! And a good swimmer?
Back to work for me! Have fun!
