If I could get six arms surgically implanted octopus-style I probably would...That way I could work, clean my house, and give myself a pedicure or some other such self-care regiment that I've been neglecting...

It's 5:30pm and I'm only just sitting down to work because I began my day at the dentists office in Mitte. Paul was asleep on the couch when I left because Odin began his cat party at quarter to six, so my morning conversation ohne frühstuck, was conducted entirely in german, in a dentist chair with my mouth half anesthetized and tons of dental instruments i don't even know how to name in english hanging out of my mouth. miraculously, the experience wasn't as horrid as it sounds. My friend A recommended a great dentist, my insurance covered all of it except for 10euros and I have a follow up appointment on the 28th. Once I finished up at the Zahnarzt, however, I felt I deserved some time outside and proceeded (with Paul's help) to blow off the entire day off work, which means I'll probably be on this thing until midnight....

italian for two: due, our new kitten!

krazy kat

I leave for Italy this weekend to pick up a kitten at our friend's house. Paul and I are super excited to get an orange kitten and the enthusiasm that we spout to our friends has left some concerned about our sanity. Melissa shared this with us yesterday as a cautionary tale.
