I Know...

It's been a month or so and I feel obligated to post again since I know some people actually read this. Here's what's happened in the last month or so (incoherant as it is):

1. Latvian Snowman!
Amanda and I, along with the help of our Latvian friends Didzis, Andris and Inessa, went out during the first snow fall and made a snowwoman, complete with boobs, and slid down the hill on plastic bags. We made snow angels but Didzis kept falling on my head since he's so tall and we wrote our names in snow. That was Latvian Snow Night.

2. Latvian Party Night
Amanda and I, along with Didzis, Andris, Inessa, Lasma, and Jay from Latvia went out to a house party where I drank a liquid I thought was wine but was rum and I ended up throwing up all over the floor. No one saw me, so that was wonderful. Me and the Latvians minus Andris went out to Lucky's Luke (a German typo) and had a drink of delicious banana juice before heading home. I also did up Didzis' face with white face paint and black eyeliner so he looked like The Crow and I drunkenly drew The Joker's makeup on my face. Strangely, the people in the club took to it and men started hitting on Didzis.

3. Birthday Weekend
For my birthday Nick and Nick from the Air Force base bought me drinks, took me out to their apartment and we ate Spaghetii-os and played Guitar Hero. It was the most amazing night ever. We even got to play with a puppy. Unfortunately, the puppy was covered in poo. It was still a nice night. On the way home, Romain and I saw a giant, wild pig and started screaming.

And that's been Trier so far! 22 more days until I come home for Christmas!

Someone explained to me (while I was a bit tipsy, so I don't totally remember) that the bar Lucky's Luke is actually a play on words, and not a typo (I was also convinced that they just didn't understand English punctuation). Lucky Luke was a comic book cowboy (I think) that was really popular in Germany back in the day. The comic was written by a Belgian (or Frenchman) and set in the Old West. I think "Luke" means hideout or hole in German, so that's supposedly where the play on words is coming from. And people say zee Germans have no sense of humor...

That still makes no sense to me. I hold to the fact that it is not a typo and not a play on words... just the name of a bar that someone with English as a foreign language fucked up. :D
