Pretty numb here.
Been a dreadful year, and the mishaps just keep coming.
Am kind of fatalistic about life right now, and getting past caring.

My friend's wife hails from southern Germany.
My wife and her old school friend spent a week in and around Cologne in June and enjoyed it.
I'd like to explore the mountains, food, beer etc.
And German people are fine by me.
