I just woke up and am having breakfast! It's really cold and grey outside here in Amsterdam and I just sneezed. I might catch a cold. Which I cannot use at the moment.

Anyways. Where are you and what are you doing?

I love how you and Carrie MPLS have jobs where you can Org extensively. I am jealous. It makes me wanna go back to Paris.

I'm on the phone most of the time (like I am now), I can do this shit simultaneously.....my job is nothing to be jealous about....sailmakers (my customers) are the most boring people I know...

Monday evening here. Trying to cut back so just one large Singha beer for me, while I think about what to have for dinner.

Fauxie said:

What are the options. I suppose you cook? You cook for yourself, you and the mrs or the entire family?

For the fist time in about a week the sun is shining here in Vienna today!

Serious said:

What's living in Vienna like? Did you always live in Vienna? If not, where are you from? What's great and not so great about Vienna?

HamsterHuey said:

No, my wife's Thai. Me cook?

But seriously, no I'm not cooking tonight. I occasionally will, like doing pasta or tortillas or something, but not often.

My choices, I believe, are red curry that has already been made, some sour pork on rice, or sausage sandwiches.

I'll probably have curry.

I love Thai red curry meals...I miss them. All you get here is Indian curry. They use too much cream and fry everything.
Way too fattening for me.

Puff Mommy!

MrsMdiver said:

I prefer Thai-food way over Indian-food.....



oh, to have a Thai-wife.....

Vienna is the great city I still have to visit.....

abierman said:

Let's go together! You can teach me how to drink beer!

HamsterHuey said:

I'd go on a John Irving tour. It's why I think I would love Vienna.

Not yet.....




I say we all go live in Thailand!!!!



Oh wait, I want to visit Vienna too.....there is a beautiful lady there that I need to meet.

HamsterHuey said:

I was born here and I always lived here, although my dad is from Carinthia.
Vienna is a beautiful, very safe and relaxed city that still has the vibe of history present. There is a lot of culture here. In the last years it's not as old fashioned anymore as it used to be. A good example for that is the Life Ball. Have you heard about it?
The most negative thing that comes to my mind is that people are not really open to different cultures/lifestyles, especially the older generation. When you dress/look/live differenly here you still get quite some stupid remarks and attention by people on the streets. A lot more than in other big cities. People from Vienna are not the most friendly IMO, although people from abroad usually tell me they are .

It's very different from Western Austria. People from there usually don't like us people from Vienna .

Beer in Vienna, as taken by my bf:

Serious said:

The Austria I know is the A12 Inntal Autobahn to the Italian border and some mountains I ski on.....been to Salzbug and Innsbruck, that's about it!
I bet I like Vienna!

abierman said:

I have been to Innsbruck just once or twice for an hour or 2 and don't remember a lot how it was like. BUt i think it was nice, but nothing special.
I didn't like Salzburg (the city) a lot. Very touristic.

Good morning, everybody.

I just had breakfast and now I'm listening to some Prince-outtakes.

The sun is shining, but it has gotten very cold here in Copenhagen.

Today I'll be staying at home. At 14:00 I'll watch Little House On The Prairie. I love that show, especially Nellie and Mrs. Oleson. They are very entertaining.

Then I'll probably work a little on my comic collection. I have so many comics that I keep a cover index which needs to be updated.

Then, tonight, I'll be watching the Danish soap, 2900 Happiness, and Grey's Anatomy and the danish comedy series Maj & Charlie and the episode of Smallville that I taped yesterday and finally Married With Children which is currently being re-run and it's been many years since I last saw it.

yeah, i'll be sitting and watching Politics,(I do enjoy bill maher!) and channel surfing.

Good morning! I just had a bacon sandwich for breakfast and now I'm settling in to write an article that I've been putting off forever. Today's kind of a busy workday, but I'm looking forward to finishing, because tomorrow is a free day (except for voting) and then I'm off to San Diego and Vegas for a vacation. So the week's starting off busy but hopefully getting better as it goes along.

Good Morning....just a normal Monday here...wake up son, take son to school, and just tinker around the house today.
