12 of 12 (2.0) - April 2008

It's time for another 12 of 12! Visit Chad's (it was his idea) blog to see what everybody else's days looked like.

01:05


My weather widget shows what's happening outside: a thunderstorm. In April and at 1 am in the morning. *passout* The flashes of lightning were enormous and the thunder very load and rumbly. *shudder*


01:13


Checking the tram schedule for my morning trip into the city. It's good to know in advance when you have to leave. *nod*


08:00


Wakey-wakey! It's a little blurry, but that makes it a perfect picture because it looks just like I actually see it through my eyes in the morning without my glasses on. *lol*


08:19


Quickly setting the timer on my DVD recorder. I won't be there for my regular Saturday afternoon TV show, so I have to record it. *lol*


08:45


A quick shower before I head into the city for a pre-concert choir rehearsal. I'm running a little late...


13:30


After the rehearsal and a quick lunch in the city, I'm on my way back home to grab my concert things and my car and fetch the three guys who are driving with me.


13:31


In the tram, looking ahead to the driver's cabin and the tram ahead of us.


16:02


It's a concert day! I went to Zwickau, about 120km from Dresden, with one of the two choirs I sing in for an afternoon concert. This is the room (not really a room but a hallway) where we changed into our concert clothes.


16:45


I haven't been in Zwickau before so I take a quick look at the city before our concert. It seems pretty lovely, and the weather sure adds to that.


16:45


And another look at Zwickau.


20:00


Home in time to see one of the first balcony sunsets of this year. During winter, the sun sets behind the house on the left hand side of my balcony, so I can't see it. Now the days are getting longer and the sunset is moving even more to the West. Yay! I'm so happy that there was no sign of thunderstorms during the day!


21:10


There's nothing on TV, so I'm watching Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. This will keep me busy until bedtime. *lol*

Quote of the Week -- Week 15

Got an early reminder so here's a (relatively) early Quote of the week...

Quote of the Week - Week 15 of 2008:

Blonde with group of tourists: Is New Jersey that way? [Points toward the west.]
New Yorker: Yes, but there's a river between here and there.
Blonde with group of tourists: You mean we can't walk there?
New Yorker: Not really.
Blonde with group of tourists: Damn girls, what are we going to do tonight? We can't go to Jersey and there's nothing to do in New York.
