That is my middle name. My to do list:
1) upload my pix of cupcakes, so that I can live up to the name of this blogspot. (Cookinglinguist ...kononnya)
2) do some linguistic reading, I've a whole pile of papers to read and here I am taking pictures of leaves and flowers.
3) catch up on my bible reading. I should be reading Roman 15:1-12 but I am still at Romans 2 and I've skipped all the 4 Gospels. Shame on me :-(
4) review German grammar, work through a book, "Typisch deutsch?: Arbeitsburch zu Aspekten deutscher Mentalitaet" (Some book to understand the German mentality... God help me!).
5) unpack 3 more boxes and organize the content.
6) ....
I think I need a coffee break now, to think over my to do list.

I can empathize with you. Should be working on my doctorate, among other things, but there's so much other interesting stuff to do.
ReplyDeleteAnd who would want to understand the German mentality? I'm German and I don't understand it :-). Is there anything to understand?
I think coffee break sound like a great idea ...
Be blessed,

Hi toph, i found a great book about German mentality. It is by Greg Nees titled, Germany: Unraveling an Enigma. My favorite sections is 'ordnung muss sein'.
