Jittery!

I made a mistake today. I popped down to the Weimar Office (Café Laden) where I had not one, but two cups of coffee before noon. The end result was that I was about to bounce off the walls and couldn’t focus on anything for the entire afternoon. Seriously, I think this is dangerous and I need to stop doing it. Blah! I should have learned my lesson by now.

On the other hand there was, for the first time, a loud long conversation in English that I wasn’t able to tune out (not helpful for work productivity), so I jumped in, and talked to somebody from South Dakota who’s living here. Unfortunately I didn’t get his name.

  • B.

    I’m naturally hyper… if I drank coffee I might actually burst something.

    Isn’t it weird to stumble across english speakers? At first I embraced it & tried to join the conversation. Now I just sit there pretending I don’t understand.

  • I think that what happened to me yesterday could actually be dangerous. I was starting to panick right where I was sitting, wondering what would happen if I collapsed. In fact I kind of made it a point to stay in crowded spaces for awhile in the event I did have a major problem.

    As for the English, I gave the South Dakotan my email address and web address. He said he would email me, but he hasn’t yet… perhaps my blog has discouraged him!
