(no subject)
Since I'm staying in Bamberg way longer than expected, I got to buy some new underwear today. Nothing fancy. As cheap as possible, without being ugly. Settled for five cotton slips for 7€, a white one, two red ones, and two white ones with little red stars. Wheee!
Also, I bought a new pair of pants, which is gray and kinda wide at the bottom. I look all..... I don't know.... but hey, I like them. And no, they're not too Avril-looking.
I'm loosing weight, which is good. The pants I bought are size 40 (in German sizes), and they are pretty loose. So I'm a 38 again. Whoo! The bad thing is that I'm not really eating well. At all. Yesterday I had breakfast at the hostel (which is free, whoo!), lunch was a bagel at McDonalds (1.80€, and dinner was a slice of pizza (1€). And that was pretty much the most substantial food I've had all week. Usually it's salads and breadrolls and muesli-bars and apple-pie. Which is not bad food, but when it's the only food you have all day.... I can see how I'll have a dream body when I live here with Ben. Hello poverty.
I'm horribly lonely here, but lately I've been talking to Dev on AIM, which helps. And I read Microserfs over and over again. It's pathetic, but reading it makes me somehow feel... not alone. It's so easy to imagine Dan and Karla and Michael and everybody are real people, because reading that book is almost exactly like reading an online diary. No wonder I was such an OpenDiary addict after breaking up with Philip. Being alone brings out the geek in you. Being with other geeks, too.
Gotta go look at another apartment later today. Look, I spelled it with one P! Consider that a birthday present, Broomy. :)
Only two more days after today, and then I can go home and talk to people and stuff. Loneliness sucks. I mean, not the relationshippy loneliness, but the loneliness of being in a place where you don't know anyone, and you have nobody to talk with, and the time that you actually spend talking during a day is about two minutes, and that's telling the bakery lady what sandwich you want. Scary.
That's it for now. Got longer than expected.
