Yearning to…

One of the best things about my trip to Dresden was the fact that I went to the Think Pink dance party and had, fort he most part, a great time.

It put me in a dancing state-of-mind.

Unfortunately it’s a state-of-mind that cannot be resolved in Weimar, it requires travel. I even went so […]

Early Sunsets

It’s definitely dark early here.

I stayed in Weimar today, and in the late afternoon I had a hankering for fresh veggies to include with my dinner, so I slipped on my iPod and headed to the nearest grocery store, where I picked up a head of lettuce, some peppers, and an avocado.

Dinner was […]

Early Objector

I did not learn how to drive until I was at least 20 years old. It was probably more like 21—and then I made up for all the driving I didn’t do between 16 and 21, by driving more in the next three years that most people drive in their entire lives.

Soon after getting […]

Hundescheiße

Ok, here’s the deal: The next time I see somebody’s dog shit on the sidewalk and not pick it up, I am going to pick it up for them and smear it all over their clothing and/or make them eat it for dinner.

I finally uploaded a few photos from Dresden. One is below, the rest are on my Flickr Dresden Set.

Take for example the fact that British people put their groceries in a boot—I don’t know […]

More on Dresden

The Whiney Expat Blogger Meet-Up was, in my personal estimation, a great success.

It was great meeting Eurotrippen’s B again; seeing the Big Wide World’s Cathy somewhere other than the Erfut-Weimar-Jena triad; and then catching up with people I’ve only read before (Germany Doesn’t Suck’s J; Mausi; and C N Heidelberg), as well as people […]

Weimar. Montag Abend: Art, or we will die

As a part of the Monday Night Lectures at the ACC in Weimar, this Monday the lecture is about Israeli Art and how it is affected by death, terrorism, and war.

A Colorado Kind of Evening

I could write a lot about the Whiney Ex-Pat Blogger Meet-Up in Dresden, but I figure that there were ten bloggers running around in a pack, and since we’re all writers, it’s going to be covered in a variety of ways over the next week.

Obviously, with an introduction like that, this will not really […]
