Life...and other afflictions

The rantings and uninteresting events of my life

I'm feeling tipsy...thanks to just one mug of Glühwein. It really packs a punch man, and if you add in the fact that I hadn't eaten for hours before that and that I have close to zero alcohol tolerance, you'll understand why. I couldn't turn my head without feeling like I was gonna fall over.

After that, I ate a Riesenschnitzel, which was quite value for money...it was really big. Most people didn't finish it...I wanted an excuse to stay at the table as long as possible, because I was afraid I'd fall over if I tried to walk. But it wasn't too bad...your essential fatty food that keeps you warm in winter. Fu Wei gave me one of her Quarkspitzen...it was not bad too, but I was so full by then...you know, the law of diminishing returns and all.

But all in all, the atmosphere at the Weihnachtsmarkt was great...lots of people, it was cold, people drinking Glühwein, eating Bratwurst, selling Stollen, etc etc. It's really not hard to get into the spirit of things. I think I'll start decorating my room a bit...wanna make it a little more Christmassy...today's 1. Advent...I don't have the candles thing...but I have some other things which Steffi gave me last year.

My head feels heavy man...this is a sign to not touch alcohol, I guess...it's not for me. But, it was really nice and warm while I was drinking it...before the effects hit me.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire wasn't bad. I mean it definitely has very little similarity with the book except the essence of the plot and normally I feel disappointed about that, but then you really do have to learn to appreciate both versions based on their own merits. However, the actress playing Hermione, whatever her name is (I forgot)...oh...Emma Watson or something...has actually gotten worse! She is frowning all the time and practically shouting all her lines. It's all so OTT. I really wish she'd exaggerate less. In the German version, it didn't seem so bad...cos the dubbing artist had more feeling...but whoa...I thought you're supposed to get better with experience?? In any case, Daniel Radcliff has nice lips. I know he's not gonna win any awards for that, but they look so kissable! I take back what I said about him getting uglier. His lips make up for everything.

My memory card is full! That's scary...I guess I'll have to delete some photos...don't really wanna do that. Am almost tempted to buy a new memory card just so I wouldn't have to delete any photos. But that's not very practical, I guess. I'll upload them and then burn them all into a CD and then I'll delete the ones from the memory card.

I am very very thirsty! Must be the dehydrating effects of alcohol. Man, I love the taste of water! Haha, I know water's supposed to be tasteless, but there's a sweetness in there that's like nothing else there is.

Nothing much to watch on TV now...maybe I'll go read one of my books.
