Blergh. Just a short post today, mostly because I desperately need to get into bed and because the cold that was approaching me yesterday, is starting to take shape and because I did next to nothing today anyway. Basically, my day consisted of catching up with ancient_leah via MSN, translating a bit of the newest Minor Characters chapter, trying to ignore my ( Read more... )

Writing a blog entry for today, that is.

It was mackenziesmomma's and my second day at the Rosewood and it was spa time today. We both got a full hour massage and man, was that good. Seriously, that was awesome and I kind of want to have another one already, you know? We then took the car back to San Francisco and wanted to see the Golden Gate Bridge but it seems ( Read more... )

That is to say, mackenziesmomma and I didn't. Instead I was at the airport three hours too early because I mixed up mac's departure and arrival times (don't ask...) but at least I could start translating the newest Minor Characters chapter. It then took us at least an hour to actually get to our rental car (apparently, today, everyone who arrived wanted to rent a ( Read more... )

Apparently, though, I lied. Because who, in their right mind, is stupid enough to do San Francisco by foot?

Oh, right, that would be me. OW MY FEET OW OW OW!

Or, in a little more words: I walked up Larkin St. and then down Geary St. to Union Square today, then walked down to Market St. to Westfield Center and walked down Market St. all the fucking ( Read more... )

(one of the best headings ever, isn't it?)

Damn, I really need to buy sunglasses. It's summer here, y'all and the goddamn sun is actuallye shining and it's so fucking bright (this makes a lot of sense if you were in Berlin or most other German towns this "summer"... it still feels as if the last time we saw the sun was sometime around May...). And ( Read more... )

Why do I always forget how exhausting visiting foreign cities get and how much I need new feet already after the first day? And I didn't even walk the entire day because I decided pretend I'm rich and spent *mumbles unintelligibly on a guided bustour around the Bay Area (ie. Union Square, Haight Ashbury, Pacific Heights, Presidio, Golden Gate Park ( Read more... )

Because, see, I've been awake for over 24 hours now and arrived in San Francisco, three hours ago but can't go to bed yet because I need to trick the damn jetlag. Also, there are four other German hostel guests sitting here and I honestly have never heard so many stupid commonplace phrases with not content whatsoever in so little time ever before. ( Read more... )

Until I'll touch down in San Francisco, I mean (and a week until I'm going to meet mackenziesmomma \o/). I'll set off first to Heathrow and then on to SFO on Monday morning and touch down on late Monday afternoon at SFO. I don't want to think about the jetlag yet but it'll be total fun, just like it was last time (2009, Seattle and Vancouver)... oh, okay, the ( Read more... )

Yep, it's a collection of daily meaningless rambling...
