Vocabulary lesson

On Saturday I ate a raw, seasoned pork Mett sandwich in Düsseldorf. Now I have psychosomatic trichinosis. On Sunday, I went to the Cologne Zoo where there were just about as many cute German kids as cute animals. Cologne is really the place to be, at least for purposes of entertainment, and I need to start keeping better track of who's coming there and when. I've already missed G. Love & Special Sauce and will be missing the Robocop Kraus because of my negligence in this field. Thankfully I was on the ball enough to find out about the Wilco concert on Wednesday, but unfortunately I'll miss Ted Leo & the Pharmacists, who are coming the week I'm in Berlin. Jerks. It's probably for the best though since I don't really have any disposable income to be throwing at bands anyway. I do, apparently, have plenty of disposable income to be throwing at foreign(er) economies, since I'm headed to Amsterdam con el Bairdo on Friday. I'm looking forward more to the train ride than the actual city for some reason. And of course, I expect disaster after hilarious disaster, all of which will be recounted in embarassing detail (See! Matthew get chased down the street by an angry prostitute! See! Baked Zachariah expose himself to a police officer!). I will do my best to make one of those happen. See you if I live.
