Keith Richards, who is hospitalized after falling out of a coconut tree on his head, can not die! I’ve been convinced since ‘82 that he will outlive us all (including the roaches)… keith pushing up daisies = end of the world as we know it (and I still haven’t memorized the damn song…)

Today my cold is much better, but for some bizarre reason which will forevermore only be known to the gods of irony, it has somehow managed to morph into a yeast infection. Now I haven’t had a yeast infection since my uber-tight-jeans phase in the mid-90’s, so this has taken me by surprise. In […]

Still recovering from my first deutsch cold… ugh. And as my mucus production ramped up, my creativity took a dive, so I’ll leave you with two pictures from around town that crack me up….

Woke up this morning feeling like I swallowed a porcupine. As the day’s progressed I’ve added dizzy and nauseous (two of the seven dwarfs) to my symptoms. And as I sit here suffering I realize that salvation (or at very least, oblivion) is a few feet away in the form of contraband nyquil… […]

Today I finally wised up to the fact that Hogan’s Heroes reruns as german language aids just aren’t cutting it. So I did what any bored middle-class haus frau would do… I called & requested my very own cunning linguist to personally attend my needs twice a week. That’s right, I’m on the […]

Since arriving in Dresden we’ve been going through tv-series dvd’s like Charlie Sheen goes through hookers. We’ve viewed our way through seasons 1 & 2 of Scrubs (loved it… although I find the one mentor doctor really annoying), seasons 1 & 2 of Without A Trace (loved it more… who’d ever have thought Anthony […]
Former supermodel turned brain surgeon leaves behind successful career in America to try her hand at hausfraudom in the lovely Saxon city of Dresden, Germany.
Some days are good, some are bad... all are opportunities to learn & grow.
With my sunny disposition and can-do attitude, what could possibly go wrong?
