  1. "If you got the skin to be rejected 800 times in a row, 801 is gonna be a crazy play." @garyvee, http://is.gd/1sbTW (~45:10)
  2. Back from language exchange night. Learned loads, including what it looks like when a cyclist gets hit by a car. Like *hard*. #berlin
  3. Off to café for coffee, muffin, and language study. And by "language study", I mean people watching.
  4. @melissa I know the feeling. :) Bled about $15K in the last six weeks. (It's a bit, erm, "complicated.") But things are stabilizing now.
  5. The wash-and-refill recycling here takes some getting used to. Strange to buy drinks in scratched up bottles, but no doubt eco-friendlier.
  6. Board the S-Bahn at Hackescher Markt. Walk right into the middle of a group belting out Christian folk tunes. Still recovering. #fsm #berlin
  7. Berlin seems to have a lot of scenetards: people far too eager to employ the terms "trendy", "hipster", and "gentrified" in pejorative ways.
  8. Sitting outside Fellas in P-berg with a glass of red wine and a chicken salad on the way. Go club meets in a few hours. #bliss
  9. Thinking it unlikely that I'll stay in Berlin longer-term. A combination of standard of living woes and linguistic aftertaste.
  10. Things you might not know about Germany #4419: It's considered improper here for a guy to pee standing up. See also: German toilet design.
  11. Okay so I'm thinking my neighbour is a professional saxophone player. Practices all the time and seems to never miss a note.
  12. Police have arrived.
  13. 7:14 AM: Someone's got their stereo cranked up so loud that it sounds like there's a concert going on in the courtyard. Weird. #berlin
  14. Things you might not know about Germany #181: It's totally normal to rent a flat here without a kitchen. You want a sink, etc.? Install it.
  15. @bencasnocha I use "Cheers" to sign-off in mail and in person. Also "Tschüß", which is close but admittedly no cigar.
  16. @JMattMcL Feel free to drop me an email: bradb@30sleeps.com
  17. @JMattMcL I haven't allocated time to write in a while. I've been busy failing my way forward in other areas of life. :)
  18. Looking forward to the Ubuntu Berlin BBQ tonight.
  19. Played with a 7 stone handicap against a 2-dan tonight. Lost by 18 points. That's much more satisfying than it sounds.
  20. Der King of Pop ist tot.
