Oh, yeah baby g. It’s finally hot f*cking summer and I really like it. We have now three weeks in a row sunny weather with no rain at all. Everyone running around with less or nearly no clothes (heh, especially the girls) is also a nice present from above. Personally I haven’t felt better the last two years. Maybe that’s depending on my previous depressions and the like (you know these thoughts .. ) but this summer is definitely going rock my life! ...

Now is again such a time in live, where you have the motivation or wish to just fade away. I’m just listening to Fort Minor - Where’d you go and thinking about the stuff Mike Shinoda is singing … I want you to know it’s a little fucked up, That I’m stuck here waitin’, no longer debatin’, Tired of sittin’ and hatin’ and makin’ these excuses, For while you’re not around, and feeling so useless, It seems one thing has been true all along, You don’t really know what you got ’til it’s gone. ...

Today we got up bit later (07:40 am) to do some sight-seeing and shopping. We took the car “ Candidplatz”, that’s where Paula is working currently and got into the subway to “ Sendlinger Tor”. The day was starting sunny featuring 23°C at 9:00 am. Certainly I was wearing short pants and a tank top, as I’m used to have a weak till moderate wind blowing around me. We finally stopped at SportScheck to get something for Paula. She badly needed short pants and polo shirts for her physic therapy lessons she is giving at physico. ...

Boy, right after I wrote those lines they announced everyone heading to Stuttgart should get of that train and take another since they had to replace the damaged end car. I even had to switch platforms again. I’m now sitting in that other train, it’s pretty much overfilled with people who are all and everyone angry at DB. I’m gonna take a cab from Stuttgart Central Station to my aunt’s place since it’s getting later and later. We’re now supposed to arrive at 22:48 but the train already has ten minutes delay. ...

I’m now sitting in the ICE (on a little child seat), it arrived with 20 minutes delay here at Frankfurt Airport but we’re still standing here with problems on the end car, so it’s gonna take a while. It’s one of the newer ICE’s and the interior looks really great. I even managed to get some wireless connection!

I’m now at Frankfurt Airport and I nearly got on the earlier train to Stuttgart which I wasn’t able to catch, according to the service guy. I was facing the same problem than the morning before. The damn doors closed right in front of my face. Meh, Friday seems to be my bad luck day. I’m still waiting for the ICE supposed to leave at 20:54 but it’s currently having eighteen minutes delay. My cousin messaged me earlier that she’ll collect me at Stuttgart Central Station. The day is nearly finished now and I’m awake since yesterday morning 07:40 minus that three hour break. I’m still pretty excited that I really got to Wiesbaden and I really enjoyed that little trip (even if it was a bit expensive).

I’m sitting in the S8 to Frankfurt Airport where I’ll switch to the ICE to Stuttgart to visit my cousins and my aunt. Linux Tag was quite amazing, I finally met some of the people behind OpenVZ (Kir and Kirill), saw a bit of Andrew Morton’s Kernel FAQ (Kir told us that) and met some people including Bertl, doener, derjohn, zeng, foo, … of the linux-vserver community. Both workshops were quite interesting and I learned a lot of things about openvz and it’s userland tools and linux-vserver (finally I understood the CPU Tokenbucket system). ...

Boy, that day started great (irony). I was supposed to get my lazy ass up at 04:20 am to be at the station at 05:27 am, taking the train to Wiesbaden (together with Hollow). But someone in this odd world doesn’t like me. I somehow managed to turn off the damn cell (that was supposed to wake me up) and slept till 05:10 am, till Paula came in and woke me up. She told me she was awake since half an hour and she waited on me to step into her bedroom. ...

I just woke up and thought I really should blog about that. The trip was quite interesting so far, saw some things that really looked odd. At first the was some kind of Police protection (30 or so with shield visor) for only 5 people at Pasewalk Hbf. Pasewalk Hbf - Lots, and lots of policemen! A friend of mine picked me up at Berlin Ostbahnhof and we drove all the way to Munich. While we stopped for gas (1,44€ per liter super unleaded) ...
