I'm an utterly boring person...

Yep. The truth. Today I went to work, came home, skyped, did some laundry, and now I'm in bed. When did I become this old person? I might have to start taking Fridays off just so I can go out an do something. I might check out the thrift store in town. But don't worry, I wont go crazy or anything.

On the other hand, Saturday was not an old person day for me. It was the first day of Oktoberfest! I left the house at 11:30 and walked through the pouring rain to get there. I did it. It was glorious. Although I didn't go to any beer tents, I followed the parade route into the carnival area and had a few at one of the smaller vendors. It actually wasn't too expensive. I met a really cool couple from Oregon who knew a lot about the Twin Cities and Wisconsin. The husband was a big Vikings fan. They've even been to Spooner, WI which was insane to me. I have a ton of friends from that tiny town.
Consequentially, I spent most of my Sunday napping in my room. You tell yourself that you're doing a great job at pacing yourself... but you're not even close. Just stop, go home early. German beer is both delicious and deadly. But I do have to say (now that I'm feeling better) it was totally worth it. Also, the sausages at Oktoberfest are TO DIE FOR. Served on a baguette. But sauerkraut was no where to be found. I was puzzled.

Anyway, I think that's really all that's happened in the past couple of days. I can tell you that I am unbelievably excited for my friends from class to come and visit me in Munich.
