Tifft Hike

On Sunday we went for a walk out on the ice. Well, we were going to, but as soon as we got out on the ice at Times Beach we heard cracking and booked it back to land.

Tifft was a much better and less windy option anyway.

We found this shell of a water tank along the rail tracks. I think it was a water tank, there were four old piles in the ground on the inside. They took off the roof at some point so all that was left was the concrete shell.

A diode on the train track, for switching maybe? Paul said it looked like an explosive

We were werewolf tracking.

Terry's got a big bushy stalk.

Paul tried to make a flute.

What are these metal baskets hanging in the trees? Artificial nests?

Sleep Paralysis

While I was napping on Saturday I had the most Inception like dream I've ever had.

I dreamt that (e:paul) and (e:terry) and I went up to the old North Park library for a party. We got there, and Paul left to go pick someone up. Terry and I were talking sitting down talking to this couple, but I couldn't turn and look at them because Terry was holding on to me via meine schlange. I wanted to tell him to let go, but it just made me wake up (or at least I thought). I started to tell Emily (who was in our bedroom?) to tell Terry to let go again, since he was still holding on, but I couldn't form any words. While this was happening my eyes opened for real, and I could see Terry, who was holding on for reals. I tried to tell him to wake me up but I couldn't talk, move, or even breath. Apparently I really was just laughing in real life, which makes me think I was having sleep paralysis.

Basically scientists think it's the boundary between being awake and REM sleep. Lack of sleep is considered a cause, which definitely could have been after the rave. The brain gets out of control sometimes.

Lazy Saturday

After the rave on Saturday (e:joe,58770), we had an absolutely lazy Saturday. (e:terry), (e:paul) and I got up at noon, went to eat at West Side Bazaar (e:joe,58771). After Paul and I ended up napping (I think I was starting to get sick too).

Of course we were hungry again so Paul and I were going to get pasta from the coop. Paul didn't want to walk, so we nixed that and ended up driving to Curly's with (e:mike). The chips were redonk but we demolished them.

We hung out with Mike at home after dinner while he told us about all the important acronyms he uses for work, and the importance of cultural sensitivity. After he left we watched Teen Wolf and went to bed.

I felt kind of bad having such a lazy day of eating/sleeping/bed/repeat but I guess Paul and Terry are right when they say you don't always have to be accomplishing something.

Here today, gone tomorrow


They started to take down the Delaware Court Building on Chippewa the other day. Its so fucking stupid that we are giving money to Uniland and Delaware North to take down a perfectly good building when we have so many empty lots downtown, especially to just shuffle the deck with a new glass box.

West Side Bazaar


After strugglebussing it out of bed this afternoon (oops), (e:paul), (e:terry) and I decided to go to the West Side Bazaar. I've been wanting to go there since I heard about it when Paul and Terry went there. So much good food for cheap.

We ran into (e:Heidi) and (e:dianne) who were there for international women's day. terry and I split the Ethiopian vegetable platter. We also got samosas, baklava and a bubble tea with no bubbles. I wish they didn't use Styrofoam plates though.

Hack Rave at Love


Last night (e:paul) (e:terry) and I went with (e:yesthatcasey) and (e:flacidness) out to Love Nightclub in Rochester for a rave. It was ridiculously good hardcore and happy hardcore music by this guy named Velociraptor. The setup was decent and there was plenty of room to dance. We danced for over 3 hours and didn't get to bed until about 5.

I dressed up in Paul's old kikwear pants and TK wore Terry's. Paul got them thrifting at some point, the label said 91 on them. Weird to think about.

Party Gras

Last night (e:terry) and I went out for Mardi Gras on Allen with (e:heidi), (e:dianne), (e:xandra) and (e:czarkasm). Poor (e:paul) was sick and working late :(.
We went to Nietzche's at first. I entered the butt contest but (e:mike,58760), you would have been disappointed because it wasn't really even a contest. Whatever, any excuse to moon a bunch of people. Terry says I might have shown a little too much of the goods.

I ran across the street for a bit to Brick Bar, where I met up with Lindsay, Catherine, Andrew and some other guy. I also saw Lisa there for her 21st birthday, she was absolutely cray.
I went back and finished the night at DBGB's with everyone again. We danced for a bit and headed home around 1:30.
My ride in the next day was rough for sure.

Frau Schulz 's 'toothache'

Besides using duolingo to German, I've started to use this old book that (e:terry) used to learn Deutsch called German: How to Speak and Write It. Apparently it's pretty standard but it's also redonk old, like post-war old. It's helpful to have entire passages as opposed to single sentences in duolingo. The drawings are cool also.
image

It's also crazy dated in a sexist sort of way. Paul and I were reading one of the passages and it says

Guide at the Niagara: "My ladies and gentlemen, this is the strongest waterfall of the land, and if the ladies would shut up for a moment, you can hear the terrific roaring of the water!"



image
And there's a semi-dirty passage about Frau Schulz getting her hole filled at the dentist. For only 5 dm!

image

image
Whenever you go on vacation, pack at least two suits and 6 handkerchiefs.

Anyway I hope going through this will help me get better at speaking and grammar. Ich will einmal nach Deutschland gehen!

Sunday in the Park with Emily

On Sunday we woke up and (e:terry) made an amazing breakfast.
image

Keeping with the theme of lazy weekend we sat around for most of the day, before Terry and I went on a walk. (e:paul) was sleeping since he was starting to get sick :(.

We met up with Emily who was still recovering from her night out an ended up walking around the park. She kept singing this ridiculous song from some art video called "Sunday in the Park with George" and it's been stuck in my head since then.
On the way back Terry and I stopped at Spot for coffee. Then we got home and made more veggie barley soup. It's so freaking good, especially with the fancy cheese blend Paul shredded.
