Odd Dream

So last night I drempt that I was onboard an Aeroflot flight—it was a round trip flight and I remember that I left from Moscow—the runway was quite short and the take off was abrupt. I don’t remember anything else about the outward bound flight, nor much about the return flight, except that on the […]

Paranoia Alert!

From the Inbox! Not only is the Bush Administration’s State Department running scared, but they’ve managed to convince the Democrats Abroad in Berlin to forward the Berlin Consulate’s Scare-Mail to everybody on their email list! I’m glad that I have not personally subscribed to the Berlin Consulate Paranoia Email List. However, if you visit the […]

Spring Cleaning

I didn’t really know what I was doing the past week at home, other than the fact that I was catching up on a lot of chores and annoyances that I should have caught up with before.

And then it dawned on me: Spring Cleaning.

Now some of the laundry I’ve done in the past […]

All’s Right With the World

I spent today in motion of sorts—I went to the office first thing because I wasn’t able to finish a task yesterday, then I immediately turned around and came home. Once in Weimar, a friend and I went to a drink store where I bought two cases of Hefeweizen and two cases of water.

After […]

Gay Weimar: Cruising Spots

Please visit the new Gay Thüringen Page.

I make no secret of an important fact: I am gay.

Of course, I live in Weimar which means my gay social life isn’t. Gay life in Weimar is about as exciting as watching grass grow, and I’ve pretty much given up on any prospects of meeting Mr. […]

Cooling Down

So after three and a half spectacular days in Weimar, it is cooling off.

Yes, I think I cannot wear the shorts tomorrow—much to my disappointment. Nor, I suspect, are sandals feasible. It’s an unfortunate and sad change of pace. Not only that I never had any cause to complain about sunburn this week, so […]

Flip Posting

I have a flip post about Weimar being written – however, it’s far from mentally ready, never mind textually ready.

Instead I will just say that today was, again, one of the nicest days ever in Weimar. The weather could not have been more perfect had it tried.

Fantastic Day

I have to say, without a single reservation, that today is the very best day I have ever seen in Germany.

The weather is perfect—warm, sunny, blue skies, no humidity. The parks were stuffed to the gills with people enjoying the weather: impromptu soccer games, sunbathers, and naked children playing in the water.

Yeah, you […]

Happy Thoughts

Before reading the somewhat bitchy entry below, I want you to know that the weather today is absolutely, positively fantastic.

A nicer day could not be had.

Now you can read about my Friday afternoon.

B to W

I made it to Berlin last night—with two insults added to my injury. First the flight was delayed, arriving 45 minutes later into Berlin than scheduled due to mechanical problems. Secondly, my bag was not on the belt—so after finding the missing bags office (not easy at Tegel), I was told that my bag had […]
