Oh, Internet access.

I've been awake since 3 a.m., drove the 4 hours to Leipzig to be on time for the lecture - I thought it was going to be pharmacology. Instead it was biochemistry and reproduction. While I was willing to sit through two hours of infusion therapy - mainly because the exam is in two weeks and a bit of repetition wouldn't hurt - I'm amazed I did survive the two hours of progesterone, abortificants and the different kinds of rectal probes for electroejaculation.

I'm obviously back from London and could ramble about it endlessly. But seeing how I'm trying to be at more than one place at the same time at the moment, I won't. Catching up on the flist will probably also take longer than I'm used to. (Not that anyone but me will notice, taking the number of comments I normally leave in account.)

• So many museums, so little time *tries to glare at lexin for mentioning the V&A museum but fails*
• As far as public transport goes, I'm in love with the Tube. I don't doubt it has its share of faults, but I can understand the plans. I'm easy to please.
• I've realized that I don't have a problem with speaking English per se (ok, I do, but it's not this much), but the things I need to *say*. I can't even order a meal or ask for a room in German, no wonder I nearly die if I have to do it in a foreign language.

Need to get the information for the bank ready. And html-ify two or three laws. And go to the Fakultätsrat. And open these letters. And study. And there's this book that just arrived via bookcrossing. And the meeting at Julia's this evening. And I've not yet unpacked my bag.
sputnikkid (and kriski?):Yet again, I don't know if I'll make it in time for swimming. I'm sorry.

Na gut, doch wieder auf Deutsch: Ich hatte gerade gefragt, ob ihr beide kommen könnt. Bis jetzt sieht es so aus, daß ihr beide noch nicht sicher seid. Ich laß mich einfach überraschen, was ist. Ist auch nicht schlimm.

Wie es aussieht hattest du ein schönes Wochenende - schön zu hören :)

[ridicully]

*tries to glare some more*
The worst part is that I'm not even that much of a fan of art (but I'm all for variation and thought the British Museum and Natural History one after the other would be a bit much) and I could still spend days in there.

[ridicully]

Ja, das Wochenende war schon spitze
Aber dafür habe ich nichts gewonnen *g*

Wegen des Schwimmens muß ich wirklich mal sehen wie lange wir heute wieder im Fakultätsrat rumsitzen. Die Profs hören sich so gerne reden.

Deine CDs bringe ich dir aber auf jeden Fall mit - wenn nicht heute, dann nächste Woche (wenn du denn dann da sein solltest). Die haben mir übrigens den Flug und die Zugfahrt über ganz nett die Zeit vertrieben.

Rectal probles for electroejaculation, what a topic for 7am.

I'm nosy, but what *is* your native language?

[ridicully]

The topics for the lectures I'm attending are the reason my spam-filter didn't want to let comment-notifications in my mailbox *g*

And I don't mind nosy people :)
My native language is German.

[king-chiron.livejournal.com]

Oh, OK. *confused* I saw the bit about not being able to order a meal in German and figured, well, not your native language. Just for the record, I can't order a meal in German either.

Glad you don't mind nosy because nosy I am. :)

[ridicully]

My inability to order a meal in German has nothing to do with not knowing the words, just my my social incompetence *g*

And I'm often noisy myself, just so you're warned ;)

[king-chiron.livejournal.com]

Oh, I like noisy. :) (sorry I couldn't help it)

But nosy is fine, I'm not shy at all online (ask Kriski, haha). In person, that's another matter altogether.
