Notes from Germany

I am an American expat living in Germany. It's a far away land on the other side of the ocean. It's interesting and often weird here. If you read this and want to comment then email me at blog(the at symbol)chillmost.com. If you find any spelling or grammar mistakes, you can keep them.

Yesterday Don't Mean Shit

I've been listening to some Pantera again. Just thought I'd explain today's title. I've also been listening to lots of Swervedriver because I just got the double CD "Juggernaut Rides" and have been featuring it prominently in my immediate surroundings. It's good to hear a lot of those tracks again.

I've had really bad jet lag this week trying to get readjusted to CET. Going westward is no problem. Coming back, I find, is a bitch. But I discovered a cure for eastward travel induced jet lag; Alcohol. Yes, applying copious amounts to the affected area, the brain, via the mouth seems to do the trick. If you get to bed around 10pm and wake up around 6 or 7pm, you ease right into local time. Side effects can include mild to strong headaches, dry mouth, bad breath and agitation.

I hope to get some pictures online soon from our trip. Until then I present this picture that non-Americans find amusing.
