One week of no internet. Can you believe it? It went down somewhen at night last week, and didn't come back up. The first day it was okay. The second I thought: Ah well, I've survived worse things. On thursday I got a little worried. When it wasn't there friday, I lost hope: Nobody works on the weekends! Who should bring it back? And yes, no internet on saturday. No internet on sunday. And today, at 9 in the evening, finally: High speed.
But wait: We traveled. We're on holiday. We're in the big city. In a hotel room. Thank you civilisation, here, have us back. (We just had some beers at a rooftop restaurant. Wheee! After no beer for like ever these ones really tasted great, even for such a beer schmock like I am, beer flavour spoiled European.)
And one more thing: We had some plums hanging around in our fridge, my wife got tired of them, so I decided to make a good ol' plum cake. I didn't know how to make it, but remembered what it had to look like. Kind of like pizza-dough with plums on top and some sugar. So I did that. Made pizza dough, cut the plums in halfs, put them on top, a bit of sugar over it, into the oven for 20 minutes, et voilá: Plum cake. And it tasted just as it was supposed to taste: Awesome.
So much for now, I have to make some chess moves. (Oh, my fellow online chess partners, how long you've had to wait! - I hope you don't get unfair advantage from the fact that I am under the influence of alcohol.)
