Huh?! Wha...?! I'm awake! I'm awake!

Right! Hello there. Didn't hear you come in. I'm not sleeping, just restin' my eyes. Honest. Anyway, I suppose you're here to find out what the hell I've been up to for the past month. Well the short answer is: not much. Life here has settled into something of a routine, which is not to say it's not exciting, but it's really nothing to waste your time blogging about. The three things I've done recently that are worth reporting can be found in the photo album linked to your right. It's getting on to summer here in Europe, and that means hundreds of old people will die of exhaustion because no one here has any goddamn air conditioning! Christ! it's concert season! I've already got my Wilco ticket for the end of May and I'll be picking up my ticket for Ted Leo and the Pharmacists in mid June sometime in the near future as well. There are several more options for live music fun, but I can't remember them at the moment. I do know that I'm definitely going to the Decemberists in Berlin at the end of September, in celebration of my sweet ass new occupation! Speaking of tickets, I'd like to take a minute and talk about how awesome the online ordering experience is here in Germany. In addition to the Wilco tickets, I have also ordered a rice cooker for the notoriously gluten-intolerant Katie Woznicki, so that she would not have to suffer the indignity of crazy travel adapters on her rice cooker with American voltage tolerances in Serbia. Well I ordered that bad boy on Thursday night and Saturday morning the DHL guy jarred me out of a blissful slumber at 10am to come out and sign for the thing. And the Wilco ticket, ordered Tuesday, was waiting for me in my mailbox when I got home tonight. So efficient! Anyway, I'm going to pay a visit to the Max Ernst Museum in Brühl tomorrow, so I'd better go rest up! Those Dadaists can be pretty exhausting! I promise to update more regularly in the future, please for give my terrible blogiquette.
