viva el virus, pink soup and Umbria
You guys,
a virus is keeping my brain on low speed which I think is really nice.
Since yesterday until Friday, I am staying home, it is something like a flue, and I enjoy low-brain-life despite the annoying part of searching for tissues all the time and having to stay in bed... so back to low-brain: cooking a soup today that had chicken, chick peas and red beet in it so it actually turned pink, Keren, since I froze some if it I will take a picture later (btw: I am still looking forward to presenting you guys a foto of "Schnitzelauflauf")
Then, my appartment is changing massively again with so much stuff gone! And now that it´s already autumn here, things are changing; no more t-shirts outside, several layers for the daily challenges: tube, main station Köln, another small train and a 3 km walk to the office.
But enough about mundane stuff. As far as you guys are concerned, I have some great news, GypsyQueen aka Robin is going to Italy for 2 years and I think she might meet Roberta there again, they both sound happy about this happening. FOTOOOOOS! :)
Roberta has a new cat called Perla.
a friend in Houston said that "Ike" fortunately only caused him smalled material damages
Anina and her partner will welcome somebody new by the end of October.
Marksi is getting quite close to closing a great professional deal.
And all of you whom I am not explicitly mentioning right now are supposedly doing fine.
Hugs to all of you,
B

Patuco and 16 reasons why - 3d edition
You guys,
I have been thinking about 17 everyday-reasons to be happy about. What´s yours!
Here we go:
*having thrown away so much stuff and finding plastic duck Patuco! welsome back!
*escaping from my original office desk in order to be happy and get my work done elsewhere - AND by that keeping the colleague alive who really bugs me
*the sun in the afternoon
*calls from a friend to do crazy things
*recovering from the last two years
*driving cars
*being home
*Gabriel Garcia Marquéz
*researching the internet for weird projects (restore the organism, be happy, windsurfing, SPAIN)
*great sleep after working out in the evening
*Dharma and Greg
*EMILIA!!!!
*SAM!!!!!!
*some of you will visit soon!
*next plans of visiting you guys :)
*celebrating your successes and happiness be they small or big :)
*PIG POWER - greetings to Miss Piggy and friends:

Randy Pausch is dead
I haven´t checked the website of Randy Pausch for a while and just found out that he died on July 25th.
Randy helt this non-pathetic lecture one month after he knew he had not too much time left on this planet and he inspired me enormously with his Last Lecture, talking about how to achieve your childhod dreams.
He inspired millions of people with his. He simply says: Just don´t let your passion go by. Don ´t wait for things to happen, reach out to what is important to you.
May he rest in peace.

Feng Shui
You guys,
does anybody of you have experience with Feng Shui?
Bought a book th other day and cannot stop putting things in the dustbin. At the moment, six bags are standing in the hall. But I really don´t think I can rearrange my appartment again unless it makes sense. Or does it?
Apart from that I hope you guys are doing great.
And even though Sam´s birthday is far away, I am already thinking about something good to day on that day, suggestions?
Huggies,
B

probation time is over :)
Dear all,
just baked a terrible cake without a scale, but I wouldn´t miss the fun around it. The colleagues will have to deal with italian pastries.
This is a perfect occasion for thanking all of you. Special thanks to Sundeep, you endlessly made fun of me in the office while I was trying to figure out how they will fire me and when. What can I brag about now? That´s no fun. But you are fun anyway, thanks :)
A big hug to all of you and talk to you soon,
Birgit
