Was mache ich gerade?

So, what am I up to at the moment?

Bel is in Vietnam, so I am at home bored and alone. Because of that I have been to the pool 2 times in 3 days, for a total of 3.8km. I used to be able to do that in a single session in the pool, but now that I am halfway between 29 and dead, it is a little harder. There was even a squad swimming in the lanes next to me today, and some of them were swimming faster than me...it is a while since that happened, and it was kinda depressing. It also reminded me how much fun I used to have swimming for Geelong Swimming Club and the Waterlions "back in the day". Die wichtige Sache ist, daß ich eine Zwiebel an meinem Gürtel hatte, was damals in der Mode war...

Other than that, I have managed to get us tickets to two upcoming concerts in Frankfurt and surrounds.
The first concert is in July, and is from the German entrant to the Eurovision Song Contest this year. The guy is called Roger Cicero, and he busts out some good swing/lounge tunes in German. Very cool stuff. Better than the music are the lyrics - einfach Spitze.
The second gig is in October, and is a German band called Wir sind Helden (we are heros). I had heard this group a couple of times on the radio, without knowing who they were, and I really liked them. Then we went home at Xmas, and Benny happened to have their second CD Von hier an Blind (from here on blind). I bought a copy of this when I was back in Germany, as well as their first album, and their recently released 3rd album. These guys are tops, and I am really looking forward to this gig.

So, the question is, should I buy tickets to Die Ärzte (the Doctors) in November? Guess I will have to check with Bel on that one, as I don't think she is the biggest fan of this German Punk band...

Later y'all.

Tschüß,
