"This job would be great if it wasn't for the fucking customers" - Randy in the movie Clerks

Hi all---I know, I know, where have I been?  Honestly, there hasnt been muchto blog about so Ive been concentrating on school and taking a lot of naps.  That is not a good sign because when I start doing that, it is a sign of depression and Ive been feeling a little blue lately.  I go through moods wherein Im glad to be in a new chapter in my life and then other times when I miss home like crazy.  Now everything is ok.  Nothing that a little shock therapy, a lobotomy and plenty of drugs cannot cure.  Voila!  Im now a Stepford Wife/Nazi Youth Party follower...You vill comply!  To give you a rundown of whats been happening lately, Ive gone to a few dinners with friends here so Im glad to be finally expanding my network of people.  I have yet to meet any fellow Americans.  That is ok.  B isnt any help in that department as all of his American friends here left a long time ago when their assignments were up with their respective companies and currently there are only 3 other Americans working at his company.  One of whom is currently based in the Swedish office.

I received a few emails from friends in the meeting planning world telling me that they are all now in Las Vegas/Los Angeles working on the annual meeting that I used to help plan.  I cannot believe its been a year.  I kinda miss it.  Not the actual work of planning that monster but working with the fun people.  So to all my friends at GNE in the meeting planning department and my friends at BMc, good luck and I wish I was there with you guys.  No matter how crazy it got we always found time to have fun and make fun of all the !"&?! attendees and their stupidity.

OH!  One more thing.  I had the weirdest dream last night.  Sandra Bullock, her sister and me were sitting around the dining room table and we were talking in German, but Sandra's sister had a South German accent which is a lot more guttural than it is up here in the north and as a consequence whenever she turned to speak to me, she ended up spitting in my face.  The only thing that makes sense in this dream is that Sandra Bullock can speak German fluently.  I saw her being interviewed on German TV---I cant vouch for my fluency but in my dream I was fluent!  Das ist alles...
