A few observations and tidbits on this Wednesday:

1. There is a serious dearth of sourdough bread in this country. I love sourdough bread. You just can’t find it anywhere.
2. For that matter, you can’t really find pretzels, either.
3. There is a guy working in my building here who is the spitting-image of a 28-year-old Roger Taylor, the drummer from Queen.
4. Barack Obama said he would “immediately review” crimes by the Bush administration if when he’s elected president. Good on him.
5. If you’re not visiting pflog, you suck
6. I took out the new camera on Sunday with the full intention of filling it up with cool stuff. But, alas, I was suffering from what my friend Tracy calls “photoblock”. Sucks.
7. T-minus eight days until “Lost” comes back from its mini-hiatus. And now, apparently, we’re getting an extra hour—the season finale will be three hours over two nights*! Wohoo!
8. And it’s t-minus four weeks and two days until I leave for my round-the-world extravaganza, a.k.a. the Ed Hoover World Tour ’08! Five weeks from right now I will be eating Mexican food somewhere in Texas. Six weeks from right now I will be in Paris. Giddy up.

Yes, just four short weeks. I’m so happy that the trip is finally coming. Flights confirmed, hotels booked. I can’t wait. I bet I don’t get photoblock in Paris.

* Is it weird that when I was typing “nights” I actually typed “nichts”? Why am I subconsciously thinking in German?
