so, naturally, the only day all week that i can sleep as late as 10am, i forget to reset my alarm and i'm up at 730. but if you can't be happy on easter sunday, then you have bigger problems than acute memory loss.
on to the weather. it's been poor. quite cold for the past week, with a variety of freezing precipitation on a daily basis. it was snowing last night when i was driving home, though i won't tell you from where. i haven't even sat up yet this morning, so i also won't tell you if we managed any accumulation. it's supposed to snow tomorrow as well, but after that slowly warming up for the next week. let's hope that's it for the winter.
i met samantha & family in frankfurt this tuesday for a quick day of sightseeing. it was good to see her again finally. even if she didn't cook for me.
i may go to nuernberg this friday on my day off.
a gallon of diesel is $4.14 now. i remember after the tourney game that should not be mentioned in birmingham a few years, my heartbreak was compounded because i was forced to fill up at $1.30 per gallon.
i'm going to cook my chicken recipe in the crock pot again today. i'll let you know how it turns out, even though you don't care.

wonderful strike from new brazilian signee caio (not to be confused with old italian greeting ciao) tied it at one. before another goal that hasn't made it's way onto youtube handed us the heimsieg. had a great time at the match, as always. i've been considering getting a season card for next year. we'll see.
the german national u21 team plays a match at the new stadium in wiesbaden on tuesday. which i have procured tickets to. i haven't yet been to a german national team match, even u21, so i am excited. and of course i'll have to procure a scarf.
arsenal plays chelsea today. but i'm also too nervous to talk about this one.
so, happy easter. he is risen!
