Well as the title foreshadows it is indeed another damp day in Germany. Nobody go crazy on me or spit your cereal all over the computer because of this big freakn' revelation but simply take it for what it is. What is it you may ask yourself? Its every single day in Germany. That's what it is. Is it too much to ask for a little sunshine up in here. I would love to see some depression statistics or vitamin D levels of this part of Germany.
Quick tangent: Speaking of Vitamin D, get your vitamin D levels checked, seriously. If you can do anything for your health right now optimize your VD levels (anyone else find that acronym slightly funny?). I can almost guarantee that most of you will have insufficient VD levels. Insufficient VD levels lead only to BAD things.
In all seriousness check out these two articles

Alright back to my pessimism. But really, I am going to be honest there have been probably 2 real sunny days out of 7 since I have been here so I can't complain too much. On the bright side, you like the connection to weather, we do have a "friendly" today. That is code in German for a scrimmage. I think we travel to Borchen.
I have been getting used to my excessive free time because I don't start my part-time job for at least a week. We are also in a new pad this year which is much farther from town. This translates to excessive walking to get there. Indeed it takes a while so if any Germans read this blog and have an extra bike lying around and would like to be a pal and let a friend borrow it. You will be showered with praise and admoration.
This is worth repeating, "DOES ANYONE HAVE AN EXTRA BIKE THAT LIVES WITHIN 100 KM OF WERNE AND WANTS TO LET ME BORROW IT?" -- I am expecting sarcastic comments from my US viewers like "Oh I have an extra bike Trevor but its in the US" so fire away. Thus the reason I put in the clause" 100 KM of Werne."
To bike hunting (because they cost as much as things with engines here),
Trevor
p.s. Sim JU this weekend. Thats German code for people gunna get crazy. You will recieve a full report of all the craziness.

Hey Trevor,
Hope you are having a fabulous time there (especially with the festivities)--- and that all is well. Was wondering when you became a fan of Dr. Merola's???? I have been an avid fan of his for about 5 years now. I even went down to his clinic in Chicago in April for my Lupus and Celiac Disease. His team helped me far more then any doctor up here ever has. And you are absolutely right about the Vit. D levels...they are very important. When I was checked mine were 25 and optimum is about 60. The lovely joys of living in the NORTH!!!! K- enough of that. Talk to you soon!
I obviously meant Mercola.... ;)
