South Africa!

I met a German girl today and she said that some people in Berlin attribute David Hasslehoff for the bringing down of the Berlin Wall.

The world cup is going on and people are telling me to get excited but I just can't. Sports are all the same to me. Everyone in England good be making a big fuss about the world series of chess and I would be just as intrigued by the game.

Speak easy,

Never Too Late For Coffee

8 days. Spending most of my time listening to public radio podcasts, animating a T Rex for an animation project I'm working on (not going to talk about it until I am sure I'm going to finish it), and writing. Finished Dells book the other day and found it more entertaining than some of the other books I've read this semester. Half of my friends have left Notts for the semester. Still need to get my CPR certification before camp starts.

The other day I was at the supermarket picking out some juice. It was on the top shelf and after I picked it up off the top shelf I lost my grip and it toppled to the bottom of the fridge shelving unit. There were several times where I almost grabbed it on the way down. I was a little embarrassed and when I looked around to see if anyone had witnessed how clumsy I am capable of being I noticed that the only one that saw was a very frail old man that was all by himself. He gave me an understanding smile and I smiled back. It was pretty great.

Speak easy,
