Imbibing much soda pop yesterday, all this morning I visited the toilet several more times than usual. I arose at about six-thirty, read until eight-thirty, bathed, and checked my e-mails. Around eleven-thirty I consumed an interesting chili-cheeseburger and ordered as well a chocolate shake.
Afterward, I returned to the computer lab to update the friend links on the ol' blog. To confuse myself and others, I gave everyone German names again, many of which I suspect no one really uses anymore. I sincerely doubt the Germans have been naming their kids "Diethelm" or "Gertraud" lately, but I could not resist naming someone "Hieronymus".
Mein Freund, Jeremy, AIMed to notify me he received 501 German Verbs (a gigantic book of conjugated German verbs) for the birth of Jesus. I retorted that I already own it, and am fully capable of conjugating "ich schwitze". I realize now, however, that I haven't looked at that book since I got it this summer (for Eike's class). Mayhaps I'll flip through it this evening, unless there are decent Christmas specials on the television. Last night when I checked, the only movie showing was It's A Wonderful Life, which, though I like it, I have only sat through the whole thing a thousand times previously.
