of marmotsquirrels
friends are complaining. i am telling stories in german only.
d's third week at the embassy - d, the happy-go-lucky party lioness
this week there was another european interns meeting. in one of the nicest bars i have ever been. 18th street lounge or so. it was still summer in dc then. they have a terrasse. and we were drinking beer with danish interns and others. very nice people. they have invited us for lunch to their embassy (next to bill clinton's house). An old danish lady has been cooking danish food for over 30 years there.
i like this habit of giving business cards to everbody. maybe we can make a card game out of them.
also, the Austrian happy hour was this week. another nice bar with great rooftop and not so great cocktails.
also, a wine reception at the Austrian embassy was this week.
it's friday and i will go to sleep soon. the exhausting life of an intern.
.:. .:. .:. .:.
yesterday i was on my way to work. i walked out of the house, around the corner. and there it was.
d thinks "uhuhu, what are you????". We both are curiously looking at each other waiting for what the other one will be doing next. it was underneath a car. so i couldn't really see, what it was. it looked somehow like a marmot with a quirrel's tail. well, i had to go to work.
i told people about my new friend. nobody knew. some tried to convince me that it was a fat squirrl already prepared for winter sleep. pffff says d.
today, i was on my way to work. just before the metro station. in a garden. there was my marmotsquirrel. looking at me. me looking at him. the perfect moment to begin my day.
marc, my wonderful flatmate: "oh you mean that mamal that walks like ...." (this is hard to describe. but he really imitated the walking habit of the marmotsquirrel just perfectly). "oh, that's a groundhog."
a groundhog. d loves groundhogs and shrews.
and the best thing: we have a groundhog living underneath the front porch.
