Yukk. No really. Yukk..

I'm sicker than a dog.

Its been snowing for 3 days straight.

This makes me feel down.

A coworker brought a bug to work last week, and managed to infect 6 of the 8 of us that were there. The worst of it for me was Sunday into Monday. One guy went into the hospital Friday through Sunday.

I can't think of anything else that can induce a feeling of helplessness like being really, really sick far away from home.

I've got an apartment here in Munich now, and its not bad at all, even feels very secure with a constant police precense in the street. I'm 3 doors down from the Jewish culture center & museum, and that building has a police watch armed with automatic-weapons 24 hours a day. They have a semi-permanent hut across the street from the building, and they walk the street periodically. At first blush it is intimidating, but then its a little disappointing as well once the realization settles in that its part of life here.
