This year I have managed to spring forward twice, but I am never falling back. Back in March I was in Chicago (well, Evansville, Indiana) for the spring forward that marks Daylight savings – lost an hour of sleep there. Then I returned to Berlin and experienced the spring forward there as well. In other […] A couple days ago, while whining about gay dating sites, I noted that I had three Herren Dezember watching over me. Three fabulous gentlemen are positioned around my apartment making sure that nothing bad happens to me. Going from left to right that’s a firefighter, a model, and a bull-rider. The firefighter, […]

It was nice to walk down the streets looking at the colorful trees and get on the train to my office […] This morning the clocks fell back an hour here in Germany. I got an extra hour of sleep as a result, needed after I celebrated Katya’s visit from The Ukraine to Erfurt. It’s been awhile since I last saw Katya. Most of you may recall her most vividly from when I went to Kyiv for […] I have to say that most of the time it doesn’t bother me that New York is six hours behind me.
