Since my dear was out the evening, I spent my time entertaining the cats and continuing to inventory my RPG collection. Soon this should be finished as well.

Last Tichy of the season

Yesterday after work I went to my parents for dinner - and it was a tasty Kaiserschmarrn.


After that I went home just to go out again to Tichy for the last visit this season, since they are closing for their winter break today.


Well packed with icecream and my traditional birthday ice-cake, we went home to go out shopping again.

Finally we then stayed home - mucht to the relief of our cats who were confused because of the comings and goings that we did.

In the evening we then watched the current episode of Once Upon A Time followed by the end of season 2 of Elementary.

Mittagessen

Wochenbeginn mit deftigem Mittagessen.

Berner Würstel mit Pommes und Zwiebelsenf


Und der Rest der Woche schaut auch ganz ok aus.


Boardgames!

Yesterday it was time again for some board games with friends. After a good lunch we started.

The first game was Tsuro, where we managed to kick each other out and there was no winner.

The next game was Cockraoch Salad and although we we all had some senses left, it was quite difficult to distinguish between salad, tomatoes and paprika.

We carried on in the world of trains with TransAmerica, where tracks have been built across the USA.

Then it was time for zombie hunting as we tried to survive the Dead of Winter, which we actually managed to do just in time.

The conclusion was two rounds of The Game, where we even managed to beat the game on our second try.

In the evening, when we were back home, we entertained and fed the cats and afterwards just watched one episode of Dominion before we went to bed.

New series on Hulu

On friday I wanted to go to Mariahilf - like each friday - but it was raining heavily so I stayed home this week.

Instead I did my EDX and Coursera courses and in between I entertained the cats.

In the evening it was time for some fresh tv series on Hulu: Minority Report - interesting concept based on the movie/book by the same name, Muppet Show - now a talk show with Miss Piggy but less fun, The Mysteries of Laura - still good although there have been some changed to the precinct.

Happy cats?

Yesterday I was home early because we had our new flyscreens (for cats) installed. Unfortunately only 75% fit so he'll be back again next week with the last screen again. The cats were almost alarmed when we kept one window open, but I guess over time they'll adapt.

In the evening I first played some Diablo 3 followed by couch-watching of the latest episodes. We started off with the Hairy Bikers, then The Mysteries of Laura and finally The Big Bang Theory.

Mittagessen

Wochenanfang mit interessanter Wahlmöglichkeit.

Tortellini mit Basilikum Pesto


Und so geht es (theoretisch) weiter:


The Great German Bake Off

Although we were better on sunday, we decided to stay home. So we did our chores, played with the cats and later played Diablo 3 again.

In the evening we watched the german answer to The Great British Bake Off which is called Das große Backen. The contestants were ok, but the rest of the show was not - a hyper moderator, two emotionless jury members and only the mistakes were presented in gory details. I think we'll stay with the original.

Hard rocking and shopping

Yesterday I went shopping to Mariahilf again. But before that we had lunch/dinner at Hard Rock Cafe.


At Planet Harry I only found myself the latest Call of Cthulhu adventure book from Pegasus.

Back home there was no sushi for the cats - but I think they didn't notice. In the evening we went on to watch the latest episodes of Dominion and Mock The Week.

Film review: Fack ju Göhte 2

Yesterday we were at the movies again and we watched the second part of a german surprise hit: Fack ju Göhte 2 (phonetically correct version of "fuck you goethe")


The chaotical class of former inmate Zeki Müller is going a school trip to Thailand. But Zeki has his own agenda (again), because he hid part of his last loot in a stuffed toy, which was shipping to Thailand as a gift to children in need. Chaos and anarchy break loose very shortly once the arrive their destination...

Like part one before this movie shows us an (hopefully) exaggerated version of life in (german) schools these days. The teachers are unable to cope with the pupils, which themselves are not interested in learning anything. And yet the former inmate manages somehow to get his class under controll (at least some of the time) and they love him nevertheless/because of it.

Brute and very vulgar humor is what makes this movie very funny - so mucht that you oftern end up with tear of joy in your eyes. Although the story itself is basically the same as in the first movie of the franchise. So if the already planned third part is really gonna happen, perhaps they could change the story and keep the rest to make it the next german blockbuster.

Conclusion: awesome!
