The road less travelled...

Yesterday was much like my first day in London, in that I spent the whole time wandering around buying things - DVDs and CDs mostly, those that would cost more if I bought them on eBay or something. Only two books so that my case won't be a problem to get home. (It was only 18kgs when I left London - go me!) Lots and lots and lots of walking. That should make up for he lack of gym (although I'm not exactly eating super-healthy, but that's hard to do without my own kitchen).

Today had a fair share of minor irritations. As usual, I ran headlong into German bureaucracy, this time at the library where I spent so many hours in 2004. I forgot that I had to book a time on the microfilm machine, but it wouldn't have mattered if I'd booked out the whole day because I found nothing. *sigh* Still, now I have more specific dates, so hopefully things will turn up tomorrow at the newspaper archive.

I was going to go to Potsdamer Platz for the evening, but I got back to my hotel room and started writing my story for the current weekly prompt, which is waaaaaay longer than a drabble, so between that and the Michael Jackson memorial service, I never got there.

Maybe tomorrow.
