lots going on... too much... i wanted to write about the film "Das Leben Der Anderen" i watched recently (it's beautifully done! highly recommended.)... but it's still an unwritten draft in the making... some day some day... sigh.
have been trying to write up my thesis... and it opened up a few cans of worms... culminated in me currently reworking my analyses to make them better... so i hope it will be worth the stress and missing out on going skiing with my brother and lianne... am real bummed about that... sob.
and i just heard, not too long ago, that my brother and lianne are leaving NYC for good, it seems... NO... it's for real, and very soon, like next week or so... i should be happy for them, for their new adventures and experiences, I AM, I TRULY AM! but am at the same time very sad that they will be far away again... sob.
been staying at work till ... real late, well, early, well, late. it's relative how you see it... L, the cleaner-guy feels awfully sorry for me... so am i. and i hate to wallow in self-pity but i am feeling miserable. what i started to rework was lost when the linux server died... so while each step i take to go forward, i am pushed back another 5... i need more bounce to get back to where i was... and get this wretched thesis done... it's like climbing up a mountain... i need to hope that someday i'll get to the top to see the view... i must.
wish me luck... i NEED it.

Posted by: Fatgirl on Thursday, 22 March, 2007 at 11:47 hrsUlli... i love massages!!! but it's so expensive... so i take warm baths instead... and exercise, too.
how did you write up your thesis so quickly?!?! you are amazing... Dr. Rimmele!!!
thanks for the hugs, D (aka fatgirl)!!!
Posted by: overacuppa on Thursday, 22 March, 2007 at 23:19 hrsexercise is stress-protective too- as my thesis shows. Ah, I am still bored of it. I bet you are writing a lot better one. yours is a lot more technical than mine and thus I bet quite challenging. Go for the challenge! if you were here, I would wrap you up and give you a massage right away! Good night my dear!
Posted by: Ulli on Friday, 23 March, 2007 at 16:35 hrsUlli!!! i wish you were here... or i there, yonder in Zurich... so i could be "Heidi" and go up to the mountains and say hello to the world from up there.
