Survived the four weeks from hell with the 48 hours, the stress and the crazy people (prime example today the guy who wouldn't stop babbling about some alleged conspiracy to hide the truth that it was actually the Germans who constructed the first turbojet plane, and it went downhill form there in all the sad, but sadly not unexpected, ways...) and the stupid people and the annoying people (but also the nice lady who brought me a Demel Cremeschnitte, which, all right, is not my favourite pastry ever, but clearly she couldn't have known that, and it was super-nice regardless) and stupid boss person upsetting me a couple of days ago, resulting in me being completely distracted and, as a result, money missing in the evening; and the heat and sweating, and endless dusting, &c.. Sorry to have been so uncommunicative lately, but I lost my ability to talk in ways that actually make sense along with my brain a while ago. I haven't been asleep before midnight so often in a very, very long while. I also need to quit the chocolate addiction that started with the move related stress this spring; I've been eating incredibly unhealthily lately and I will start with my morning runs again next week. I'm not happy with my body at the moment, but I simply haven't had the energy for anything except the odd walk on a weekend, and some days simply weren't survivable without chocolate.

But on the bright side of things, I'll have a lot of free time in the near future, because I have some 60 hours of overtime to get rid of.

Before the Christmas horror starts, that is.



And because I'm still pretty much brainless, meme I picked up somewhere on friendsfriends...

I've never been much of one to exercise, but I really need to start doing something. I feel fatter all the time, and I've developed this unhealthy obsession with ice cream. I swear, I think I just ate about 5 scoops of the stuff a few minutes ago. And now, of course, I feel like a beached whale.

*reminds self to do post-your-drive meme*

I've never been one to excecise a lot either, morning runs for a while, then belly-dancing class, but this year I pretty much stopped practicing when that ended in June and I wasn't happy with my level of fitness this summer on that hiking tour, never mind the extra kilos, so something has to change... *sigh* And the chocolate definitely has to stop. *sigh*, again.

BTW, have you seen this interview (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zhl3ADhRJY)? I caught it on YouTube recently and thought they were rather adorable...

We're going hiking in October, and I've barely done any since last October, so I have a feeling trudging up the mountains is going to be a bit of a challenge this time around...

Regarding the interview:

1) No, I hadn't seen it, so thank you!

2) The Moderatorin is really perky.

3) Dennis Grabosch = ♥

*g* What I was most tempted to cheat about & skip was 'Süsser die Glocken nie klingen', which I copied from a CD from work a couple of Christmases ago in a rare attack of Weihnachtsstimmung. Also JB (& related) does not actually make up 20% of my iTunes. Er. I think.
