No Internets
I left my laptop alone for an hour to take a nap while Ida was napping and came back to Tani sitting in front of it ("I did ask Oma!!"), telling me that a strange warning had popped up on the screen.
Yeah.
That kind.
Now I am on borrowed time on a borrowed laptop and it doesn´t look too good for fixing mine any time soon.
So, if I owe you emails or I am not commenting at all and am out of the loop on absolutely everything, this is why.
I will do all promised beta-ing! (But will have little to no time for other internet-y things. Borrowed time, borrowed laptop and all that.)
On a positive note, I now have a teeny-tiny job teaching English to a private group of pensioners :) YAY pocket money!
Yeah.

Ida just learned how to climb the sofa, so I think I just remebered :)
I am going to a Baby/children´s flea market on 31 March. I went last year and it was really rather good. It´s also near Schloss Britz and the gardens should be rather pretty. Would you like to come? We could picnic :) On the other hand, it´s quite near us and I know how exhausting it is to travel all over the city when not well...
no subject
I have or am ordering pretty much everything I need for the kids, but I'd love to come along for the outfit. A picnic would be lovely too. :) I obviously couldn't do it right now, but I'm quite sure even I should be over the manflu by the end of the month!

It looks like a complete reboot :(
Problem is, I remember seeing my system backup disc when we packed for our England-Pakistan move and haven´t seen it since. And we had TWO cross continental moves fter that!
Thank you! It´s really just pocket money and only once a week but it will be fun and I can walk there :)

I think I'm having a blonde day, but what kind of warning? Empty harddrive, or something?
I hope you can get it fixed soon. But I know how you feel. I'm curretntly sans iPhone (well I have an old one, but without the internet) and it's killing me.
*YAY* for the teaching job. I'm already missing my kids. I've had my last tutoring class last Wednesday and it was heartbreaking. *sniffs*

And I can´t find my system backup disc.
And my most worship-worthy IT wizard in Geneva is not reachable:(
LOL
I ctually have an iPhone now and it scares the living daylights out of me. I guess I like my internets on a bigger screen.
Congratulations on the move, btw! I am glad that you are getting along with your flatmates and that you are enjoying Innsbruck. I am soooo jealous about snowboarding! Did you go on the Stubaier Gletscher? *is all nostalgic*
no subject
YAY you got an iPhone. Awesome. I can't imagine living without it. Sad, really.
Nope, I'm literally living next to the Nordketten lift. Actually I can see the slope from my room. ;) How jealous are you now?
no subject
Wow, that is one awesome apartement! *wants*
Well, there is hope for a skiing holiday next Easter in Kleinarl or one in Scotland. Glencoe looks good (at least for my husband and Tania, I could do with something a bit more... Alpine).

I stole/borrowed my husband´s laptop.
My first try at fanfic was in German. I think I still have it somewhere, written in longhand in a notebook. It was a Dramione oneshot but I think the plotline is probably overused. AND German fandom is a harsh place, so I think I won´t ever post it.

I love teaching languages, but it's more fun when they're doing it purely for fun (which I'm guessing why pensioners are doing it?)
no subject
Oh, yes, they are very motivated. All of them travel a lot outside the country, like at least four times a year (plus a few times within Germany - I wish I´d have started my career during the Wirtschaftswunder; none of us can even dream of pensions like theirs!). Unfortunately, none of them had a lot of English language instruction at school and didn´t need any English until they were well into their fifties.

As an American, I dream of any kind of pension that Europeans in general are provided with :p
