Xmas Time is Stressful Time

Vienna two weekends ago. Detroit last week. Two Christmas parties and three private dinner events in the seven work-days I was in Frankfurt these past two weeks. And on top of it all I caught a really bad flu. (My nose is actually hurting from being cleaned so much.) Today seems to be the first day I have really any time to do “personal” things again. It’s weeks like these that I notice how old I have become.

I did catch up with my email, finally; if you sent me something directly and didn’t get a reply… then the malign email gods ate it. Please resend!

Vienna For Ten Hours

I am back from Vienna – I went there to meet my dear friend, Anna. Arrived an hour late, at 12:00, due to a broken brake on the airplane. Helped Anna with her luggage and then we went out on the town, doing a little bit of sightseeing, had lunch, the usual bits.

Vienna is actually pretty nice, they really dressed the city up for the holidays. Of course it’s hard to get a thorough look at the city in such a short time. Still, I had a really good time, and it was very nice to see Anna again after all these years.

I went back to Frankfurt at 7pm – Hotel rooms for the night were ~200 Euro, and since Anna went back to Moscow at 10pm anyway there wasn’t really a point in staying.
