dang rain.
For some reason while being here in germany sleeping in has been hard work. today i did not have class until noon, but was going to get up at 9 30 as to get some reading for tomorrow done. last night i went to bed at around 12 and woke up this morning at 7. and had a very very hard time falling back asleep only to wake up for good an hour and a half later. and now i am tired. what the heck!
anyways...after eating breakfast i went up to the uni, and read my witch hunting stuff for tomorrow. it took me an hour to read 7 pages. thats kinda slow...after that i went to sociology where we have finally finished talking about the theroetical (sp?) stuff and next week we get to move onto the actually internet studying. so that should be good. this morning it was nice. and i was excited to get a nice bike ride in to prepare for racing tomorrow again (hopefully it does not rain). but as i was getting out of class the wind was picking up quite rapidly, and by the time i was in my dorm it was really windy. and 30 minutes later it started to rain. i really did not want to bike in the rain today. i even considered going running because i did not want to clean the bike. after 2 hours of self debate and even a little homework, i decided it would be a good idea to test the new chain, make sure it was on solid as not to break during the race. so i went out to dodge the worms, snails, and slugs (which i did quite successfully). the bike was actually not to bad, did some short sprints again, and saw a really cool cloud that looked like a mini hurricane. really cool...
soon i got back showered the bike cleaned it up nicely (again) and got hungry for dinner. more speghetti!
tomorrow dad gets here, so that should start a fun just over a week.
and my birthday package from my mom still has not arrived. even though she paid a lot to have it get here on time. i think the german customs have something against stuff for me. dads test package took 3 weeks! and all it was was two paperback books...
since writing even this much requires thinking i simply look up and out the window at the clouds whizzing by, and i realized that i am looking at clouds whizzing by at 9:30 p.m. summer is definatley on its way!

hi jake, and hopefully hi to mark also. i'm writing in english as it is too early, and i don't have enough time right now to try and grammatically figure out all this in german!
first off, happy belated birthday jake! hope you had a great day. second, happy syttende mai to both jake and mark.
third, we are excited, and envious of mark's trip to germany. have a wonderful time, and please have a beer for tim and a bratwurst for me. enjoying a bar or two of milke chocolate for me would be nice also....
take care
