Still mostly offline

• Alice, our phone company, is taking her time. Apparently, people are working on our application, but there's no saying when we'll finally have internet and telephone. The wireless-option on my computer is tantalizing as there are several connections available within our house and I really wish I could use them. As it is, it's the uni library's PC pool for me.
   
• My grandma's stable and doing exercises as well as arguing with the nurses about whether or not her blood sugar is high or low, so I suppose she's fine for now.
   
• Crocky's busy preparing for her conducting exam next week and I'm working on my papers and taking pictures of the neighbourhood, mostly. On Thursdays I'm back in Hamburg to teach at my school and to visit my family, but I go back to Hanover in the evenings with my day return and already I am not too sure whether I'll be too fond of the commute to Hamburg on Tuesdays and back on Thursdays during semester, especially considering that my family live an hour from the city centre in Hamburg. It's just too much time spent on trains, seriously - last week I got halfway through Sons and Lovers on my various train rides.
