Ha, long time no see. Or write. Or … what­ever. I just wanted to let you all know that I was on vaca­tion and I really had a great time with my girl­friend. We didn’t get abroad, though. Any­way, we spent lotta time out in the wilds, jog­ging, bik­ing, swim­ming, shop­ping – the usual stuff, I sup­pose. Not for once did I think of my com­puter and that’s quite a feat. How­ever, I got sore mus­cles, I lost some weight which in itself isn’t all that bad, and I’m fit­ter than I was before.

Thing is, though we stayed at home I still man­aged to spend quite a bit of money on very dif­fer­ent things. I bought a new moun­tain bike and some acces­sory stuff. I bought a new Timex, my old Seiko wasn’t up to the task any more (Note to self: Don’t for­get to ask par­ents for guar­an­tee cer­tifi­cate). Spent a con­sid­er­able amount of money on food and tick­ets. Vis­ited the Fed­eral Pathologic-​​anatomical Museum in Vienna, also known as the Mad­house Tower, which was the first spe­cial build­ing for the accom­mo­da­tion of men­tal patients in the world. Of course, a more lit­eral trans­la­tion of “Nar­ren­turm” would be Fool’s Tower, but that wouldn’t quite meet the pur­pose of the building.

Now, I’m at work again and it really sucks. Espe­cially if you got noth­ing to do at all. How I’d like to stay at home today …
