Gendarmenmarkt

Leia gets up very early: at 0600 AM in the morning! I got up with her and had a sandwich for breakfast and took the subway with her to see where she works. On the way back I picked up some light bulbs to change here. Now that there's a man in the house, things need to work well. We only got about five hours of sleep so I napped for a bit before going back to meet Leia for a long lunch.

The Veitnamese restaurant we'd planned on was filled with Japanese tourists so we went to a Thai place instead. Leia showed me her work: it is a very nice-looking office that looks like a neat place to work, and her team like me but I don't know why. I went from there to Gendarmenmarkt, a nearby square that has a French and a German cathedral on either side of a large concert house. It was pretty but I was still too tired to stay long, and went home to relax and use the Internet for a while.

Leia's roommate, henceforth L2, arrived at about 4 PM and was nice and friendly. We had tea together and hung out to talk until Leia returned home after 5. We went out to shop for a few things like blueberries and shrimp. No matter what I buy or where, I always end up spending 100 shekels. Leia always manages to buy more for less. On leaving the store I wanted to have some Raffaello confections I bought, but when I opened the box I discovered that many of the individually wrapped treats were open, or eaten. We promptly returned the box to the store for a refund. Lucky I was such a fat pig that we noticed it soon.
