simple pleasures

compared to yesterday it was a late morning, but normally it is early. 7:30 the day began. had my usual ceral and 3 kiwis. they were good. off into the cold air and rain to grammar to be talked at by more student teachers. once that was over i tried to read a bit of witch hunting, but it was in the old fashioned german, making it impossible for me to understand. i gave up soon after and found 2 witch hunting books in english. tomorrow i am going to talk to the prof. to see if i can use those instead.
back through the even colder rain to the dorm where i contimplated (sp) going biking. my legs feel great and all, but my throat was a little soar. so i decided to not go get hypothermia and took a day off.
i then went to the grocery store, got food which i think i will easily be able to last the week on. then came home. read a bit of a book.
it was then dinner time, i was having trouble deciding between tacos (hardshell) and frech fries with pork. in the end i went with tacos and my oh my. what a good choice. my first hard shell tacos in over 3 months. how i have missed them. i also opened the bag of tostidos dad brough. again been 3 months. good stuff...i also made up some spanish rice to see what would happen, and it turned out really good. only needed a bit of corn and taco sauce to do the trick.

mom sent me this link the other day. i tested it on some people here and a few of them cant hear it. i can turn the volume down pretty low and still hear it. others cant when i do so. that makes me happy.
now it is off to battle on the chess board.
tomorrow forcast is for snow above 1000 meters. luckily im under. but it is still going to be cold.

a few things about yesterday. i saw the results, i was 39th out of at least 99. so middle. but nothing special.
also the other day i asked one guy if he was going to go watch the tour. he said what a good idea, so now i think there a few of us going to Straßbourg for the start. then the next day is a Team Time Trial somewhere up there for us. we are staying over somewhere and then doing that. should be a fun weekend!
