yay.

german friend just invited michey and i to munich for the oktoberfest! delicious beer and wursts in copious amounts will surely be enough to console one with the passing of summer into dreary coldness, if anything can! i can't wait ...

and if i can get away fr work in july, i'm also going to the lake district! supposedly one of the most beautiful and inspiring places in england ... lets see if it gets me going like it did john ruskin, beatrix potter, wordsworth et al ...

30degrees heat today in a city unaccustomed and ill-equipped to this type of weather is quite a torture. wonder how many million people are off work today due to the heat ... lucky i have air-con office. across the street, the workers have been trying their best to position their little desk fans to share what little cool winds it generates with fellow workers and the smells of the people i have to mix it up with on the streets after work yesterday tells me its not working very well!

phew!
one and a half day more of work and i'm off to paris - disneyworld here i come ....
