searched all over town in some second hand and some "real" shoe stores for proper shoes to use for swing/lindy dancing, and gave up only to find a pair in my size in the free-store after yoga.

read "three men in a boat" and then watched "drei mann in einem boot" very freely based on the book, in which they said "then we'll be three men a boot just like in the book" #meta

still enjoying (in my mind) sipping coffee in the sun alongside a still-hot croissant (with butter!) with nina, before we raided the farmers market for potted flowers and decided to meet again for dinner (basically more dessert - palatschinken)

ah the joys of forgetting to buy greens for a salad, and then realizing that you have your own -- already green and big and growing before spring is officially here! #goplantsorrel

singing in one choir today while theodore sings in another, (and in all around general tired of fielding the question of "who is taking care of the kids when you are out of the house?")

Aaaah, a guy troll said "as a joke" that he doesn't read books written by female authors in front of a whole bunch of literary students, including my sister who is writing a dissertation about Virginia Woolf.

getting to go directly from yoga to concerts featuring world class musicians is a special thrill i will never tire of. #maisky

8 weeks of class flew by so quickly and tonight i learned the "swivel" so i declare myself officially a lindy-hopper, so i may now buy myself some shoes so i don't have to go to social dances in my socks.

hiking up the Schöckl for the first time very hungover but very happy to share the day with Manuela who has the greatest of patience.

and sometimes you end up after dinner sharing the floor with acrylic paint and newspapers.

Finally celebrated Centa's un birthday (or as she calls it n-irthday, short for not-a-birthday) today, rather anti-climatically but nicely.
