I can tell I'm getting hormonal because this has been me all day today:
After I pointed out that I would gladly pay sixty-two dollars to stare at Richard's ass for an hour and a half, Roomie promptly reminded me that I had, in fact, paid XXXX dollars to stare at it. Twice. No, you don't want to know the actual sum; suffice it to say that were I took look back on it from the distance of ten years, I would likely call myself an idiot if I didn't understand for what it was that I truly paid. It was worth every penny, and yes, I will do it again when the next opportunity arises. It's addictive, that moment of perfect suspension, that freedom from pain and doubt and the blessed ability to breathe.
Does anyone know where I can find information about New Year's Eve in Germany? I've done research and have learned that cod is a traditional fish and bratwurst a traditional meat, and that they gift bread and marzipan pigs and like to consume pork as a guarantee of good luck and prosperity, and I know they predict the future by dropping molten lead into water, but I can't seem to find out if New Year's Eve parties are large affairs to which everyone and their uncle is invited, or if they're more intimate private events. Do young children participate, or is it more adult-oriented? Do they sing specific songs or kiss partners at the stroke of midnight?
And I know it would be a nightmare for my dental work, but those marzipan pigs are so damn cute.
