Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! I finally did it. I finally lost my Let's Go: Europe book. I left it on the train this morning. I can't feaking believe it. It made it all this way, and now it's headed back to Paris without me.

sigh

Well, at least I'm back in familiar territory. I more or less know my way around Berlin, so I guess it won't kill me not to have that book... but it's been my bible for the last two months. I should have framed it or something. What a pain in my ass.

Other than that, though, I'm back in Berlin. I was a little nervous on the way here that I might not like it as much as I did when I left. I do, though. I can't stop grinning. It's fall here (and those of you from the east coast, please take a moment to consider that I've never seen a proper fall season), and it's gorgeous. Yellow and orange leaves falling everywhere, and even the pigeon that shit on the sidewalk this morning was kind enough to do it just before I walked under him.

I'm off in a minute to go check out a German language school that I've heard is good. Wish me luck...
