I worked last night from six in the p.m. until two in the a.m., then woke up again for another eight-hour cycle from eight this morning until four in the afternoon. I am not too tired, though, and shall journey forth momentarily to ride Dieter and read Tacitus on Wolfdietrich or Javier, depending upon who is occupied. Natürlich, I brought along Rammstein's Live Aus Berlin as the accompaniment to Dieter, as well as the background music at work. Das hat viel Spaß gemacht.
Now that I am secured a promotion, I anticipate a slightly easier semester. On Mondays and Wednesdays I work from six p.m. to two a.m., but I have now reduced those shifts, sauntering in at eight rather than six, which allows five hours between my last class (German Conversation and Composition) and work. I intend to use this four hours of my life regained to study Latin independently under the direction of Dr. Holland, as well as to nap before work. Viel Spaß.
I ordered two boxes of Girl Scout cookies from a lady with whom I work. They ought to provide a much-needed digression from my usual diet of chips and tuna salad.
