Nina's Exhilarating Life

“It’s a good thing I had a bag of marijuana instead of a bag of spinach or else I’d be dead by now.” — Willie Nelson

At 3:30AM, I heard a cry that sounded like death.  I went on for about 10 minutes so I finally gave up and went to see what was going on.  I saw that I had left the sliding glass door and fan on.  I figured the cat was cold and that caused the drama.  Anyway, [...]

In other news, I am back at work after 3 weeks off. The cat is doing better but we had some bathroom problems due to stress. She seems fine when I don’t have the bathroom rug on the floor. She can still [...]

Seattle doesn’t even come close to the transportation model of Europe.  Across the street from my hotel I had a bus stop with around 5 different buses.  It had a reader board that tells you how much longer until a bus is going to come.  The buses seem to come every 10 minutes so hardly [...]

I found it most interesting that homosexuals were such a large part of the holocaust. Finally about 15-20 years ago, they agreed [...]

I still have not paid to go the potty yet.  I guess I should have left a tip today at KaDaWe but thats life.  I would have broken my goal of not paying to pee if I had.

Berlin is a wonderful city. I love it so far. I took one of those cheezy hop on and off tours which got me to a few places I would have missed. Tomorrow I am going to take a cheezy tour to Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp. I am excited. I [...]

It is my first night in Berlin and so far, not going as well as I had hoped.  When I got off the plane, I went through the gates expecting customs and immigration.  I didn’t notice the bagage claim on the left side.  I left the secure area and then noticed my bagage was sitting [...]

It is really retarded that I have to go out of the secure area at the aiport to go potty. Argh.
