Does It Taste Like Sand?


So nothing too exciting has happened in the past few days, just that I have begun to fallen into more of routine with watching little Emilian :) Tomorrow is Friday which of course means the weekend! Tonight, like I have a habbit of doing, I cracked myself up. Kai came home from work and I was in the corner of the living room reading my new book (The Lost Symbol--Dan Brown's new book.. it's very similar to The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, but its a fast read and keeps my interest). I looked up to see him grab a pear from the fruit basket and sit down. He looked at it for a quick second before biting into and looking at his messages on his iPhone. I couldn't help but picture Charlie from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and I lowered my book and asked "does it taste like sand??" Kai looked over to me and clearly didn't know what I was talking about. I raised my book back up to my face and tried to continue reading. I couldn't help but think of myself as quite the comedian and began laughing. I then said from behind my book "watch out for the sticker". Clearly, Germany doesn't air the amazing show, so I'm sure he just thought I am a very strange American girl. But I know it was funny, and why it was funny and it made me laugh and guess what, at the end of the day that's all that matters. ;)
I texted Naemi this morning to say Guten Morgen! And to give her my cell number here. She replied and asked if I had to work the weekends or not so that we could arrange a meet up in the near future--I think we're aiming for the weekend of the 20th or so, like in 2 weeks. We'll figure out if she will come up here to Bonn, or if I will take the train south to visit my dear Esslingen am Neckar. I'm kinda leaning towards visiting her so that I may once again grace Joe Peñas, my favorite bar in the world (seriously). But we'll see. Naemi then, about 2 hours later texted me again and said "Wow I just realized you are actually living in Germany now. Crazy shit. It feels so unreal". I wrote her back and said I know, and that I don't think it has fully even hit me yet. I have been here for a week, and it feels like I arrived yesterday. The next 11 months will be over before I know it, I'm sure. Tomorrow I am leaving with Kai in the morning to go into Bonn. Lisa has a baby massage class that she and Emilian will start going to every Friday, so that it gives me the mornings off for the next few weeks. Hopefully I'll be meeting up with this girl named Christine. She's from California and has been living in Deutschland for the last year or so, but just recently moved to Bonn herself. We're planning to met up and get coffee or so at around 10ish, so hopefully I will finally have a new friend ;)

That is all I have for you all today.. sorry it's nothing earth-shattering, but hopefully this weekend will bring more adventures. And if not, there's always Karnival which starts on Wednesday (but that is for a whole 'nother blog entry in itself!) Für jetzt, Tschuß!

Sie alles haben meine Lieb :)
xoxo Megan

  2. It means "You all have my love" :)

    Haben=to have
    alles=all
    Sie=is you (formal)
    and Lieb comes from the verb Lieben which means to love.
    There is your German lesson for the day ;)
