days 18 and 19

Sorry about not posting yesterday, I was in a place with no internet. But these two days were so slurred together it doesn't make a difference anyway.
Starting with yesterday... I woke up in Lorenz's house, which seemed pretty resonable as that's where I had gone to sleep. I worked with Lorenz and Christian for a long time, and then read. I departed from Lorenz's house to Christian's house, where I was to be picked up. I watched Teddy writing some of his novel, and ate a berliner doughnut while doing so. That was interesting, especially when Teddy started telling me about his novel. It's very good. I aws picked up by my host family and taken to Patrick's house for his birthday party. I, Andi, and Christoph were the guests. We went out to a pub where an Irish folk musician, named Pat Cookksey was plying, for about 5-6 hours, I had some Bailey's Irush cream with whipped cream on top, and a lot of coke. We played a lot of poker. I wanted to actually bet but the others were scared about losing money. I taught them how to play crypto, which they abrubtly stopped when I wrecked them a few times. We went back to patrick's house and hung out in the celler room, which has all these awesome historical arifacts in it, because Patrick's Dad is a history loving guy. He has suits that Napoleon used, sword, guns from the seventeen hundreds and so many awesome things. He, Patrick's Dad, or more specifically Thomas, is one of the nicest people I've ever met. He gave me an awesome Guiness novelty hat, a mug, and a cd. We then took a walk (this is about at 2:30. or 3:00 in the morning) and were stopped by two police women who tried to get us into falsely accusing ourselves on vandelism charges. I had to show them my ID and stuff, it was pretty freaky at first, but they seemed cool. Then they smoked with my friends and that was that. We got back, and went to sleep. I woke up this afternoon in Patrick's house, which also seemed resonable, so I got up and ate breaklunch. I was picked up, with Andi, by my host family and transported back to my host home. Then I did basically nothing the rest of the day.

Well, guten nacht (or whatever time of day it is at which you're reading this)!

Sounds like you're having lots of adventures. What are you going to be doing over the break?

We got another 18 inches of snow, or so. I'm having trouble typing this because Baltar's lolligagging on top of me, having driven Poppi off.

Aidan's doing the Miracle Worker, the Helen Keller story, and doesn't seem very into it, somehow. But he did create a new Dr. Devious storyline.

He and Mairead did an Ancient Egypt play about King Tut. He dies.

Anyway, we miss you. Try not to get stopped by policewomen or -men too often.

Mairead: That must have been kind of freaky to have the police stop you! But everything ended up fine, so it's ok. I don't have anything else to say right now. So long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, goodbye...

Aidan: Dad let me borrow from the movie store, Batman Returns which is as cool as I remember it. I invented some weapons for Miniature Man to have. We also got a movie about Helen Keller, the Miracle Worker. It was very sad.

Mom: I'm too busy to write, really. Last week of main lesson block, trying to get last main lesson block graded and back; conference this weekend, etc. etc. etc. SPEAK GERMAN!

By the way, have you gotten your hair cut yet? If not, please do so.

Love,
Mom

So, my dear, I'm looking daily, and have yet to see anything about days 20, 21, 22... You certainly shouldn't feel compelled to write daily, but I'm curious about your daily life...

love,
Mom
