I have to admit I've spent the weekend a bit shuttered in. Last week was German classes every day, plus work, plus a couple of deflating immigration episodes. Taken one at a time, the little problems don't seem like much to bother about but it reallys wears you down after a while. I did manage to find a haircut Saturday. I had to decide how long the sides get cut in millimeters. I started at the long side and will go from there. The guy also styled my hair and I'm afraid I came home looking a little more european than when I left.

This weekend's highlight is that I got the sattelite working and was able to actually receive channels. Of course, I can only do this with the TV sitting in the middle of the floor. I wasn't planning on buying the additional cable etc. to properly situate things until I had the TV working, which happened on a Saturday night. Nothing open today.

I got the commuter bike out since the weather was nice and rode it up the street. Since this was the first real ride since I built it, the shifting went out of adjustment but was promptly fixed when I got home. Tonight I will attend my second spin class at the gym.

I heard some murmurs about Pensacola the other day whilst on the phone with a friend so now I'm starting to look forward to it as my next trip back to the U.S.
