Mittagessen

Wochenbeginn in einer geteilten Woche.

Frühlingsrolle mit Basmatireis und Sweet & Sour Sauce


Und so geht's dann weiter:


Don't leave the house

Since there was a hurricane warning for Vienna, we stayed home this sunday and I had to check my achieve for suitable pictures for the private photo marathon.

The cats were no help at all in that case, because they were too sleepy.


In the afternoon we continued playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 and we still are not much further in the story than last time we played. If we continue this pace we'll be finished by the time the third part is out, which hasn't even been announced yet.

In the evening it was time to watch tv shows on the couch again - with help from our cats, who wanted to be cuddled.

Baking, boardgaming and presenting

This saturday I went out for grocery shopping for the weekend and after that I baked a poppy seed cake for the afternoon.

After that I tried to finish the presentation of our last cruise, which I managed to do just in time before our guests arrived.

We then had a nice boardgaming afternoon with coffee and cake and following that we showed them our presentation of our last cruise, which they both liked very much.

After they were gone, we tried out our two new games before we went to bed.

The pain of headaches

This friday I woke up with a tense neck and the accompanying headache. Nevertheless we went to Mariahilf for shopping and to pick up our pre-ordered games (Super Mario Odyssey and Assassin's Creed Origins). For lunch we went to mySchnitzel for a quick schnitzel.


After that we went to Planet Harry to get the latest in gaming and then we returned home.

We didn't stay that long there though, since there was another birthday dinner with my mother-in-law scheduled at Phoenix7 in Mödling.



When we finally arrived back home I took a hot bath and it really helped my tense neck and the headache was almost gone. Shortly after that I went to bed to sleep off the headache for good.

Work on a holiday

On the national holiday we tried our best to do as many chores as possible. In the afternoon by dear went roleplaying and so I spent the rest of the day wokring on our presentation of our last cruise and entertaining the cats in between. I also listened to some of my podcasts and all in all it was a quite productive day.

Later that evening, when my dear came back home, we just watched some tv shows on the couch.

Mittagessen

Und am Schnitzeltag ist wieder alles in Ordnung.

Surschnitzel oder Hühnerfilet gebacken mit Beilage nach Wahl


Same old, all week long

Yesterday after work I went to my parents and got a nice Kaiserschmarrn for dinner.


After that I went home to the cats, who waited to be entertained and I did so. Afterwards I did some stuff and played somePath of Exile until my dear came back home.

Then we just went onto the couch and watched some tv shows.

Mittagessen

Nachdem es gestern leicht war etwas in der Kantine zu finden, ist es heute umso schwerer gewesen.

Lasagne mit Salat vom Buffet


Wild shopping spree

Yesterday after work we went to SCS for shopping. But before we started, we went out to Burgerista for dinner.


After that we started shopping and some of our destinations were the LEGO Store, Lush, Lindt and IKEA, where we all went out with something.

Rather well packed we returned home where our cats were already waiting for us and so we entertained them before we were allowed to sit on our couch and watch some tv shows for the rest of the evening.

Mittagessen

Ein kurze Arbeitswoche beginnt in der Kantine mit einer guten Auswahl.

Berner Würstel mit Zwiebelsenf und Pommes Frites


Und so geht's dann (leider) weiter:


Rather wet photo-walk

This sunday it rained all day long, but we still decided to go out and I took some autumn pictures during our walk.






Back home again we then continued playing Divinity: Original Sin 2. Although we already put a lot of time into the game, I thnk we barely started really.

In the evening there were the usual entertainments for us and the cats.

Shopping and baking

This saturday we went to Mariahilf for shopping and we did some quite heavily at myMuesli and Planet Harry. Then we went to the newly styled le Pho for lunch.


After that we returned - rather soaked from the rain - back home and went out for grocery shopping again, so that I could bake a lime and coconut meringue pie in the evening, we we "had" to taste while watching tv shows on the couch.

Boardgaming after work at work

This friday after work some of us stayed to play some boardgames. We started with Love Letter and hoped that more people would join us - which they didn't.

So we contiued with our games and the next one was Telestrations, but with only four players it wasn't as funny as we used to play it.

After that we tried to exterminate the humans in Dalek Dice.

The conclusion of the boardgame afternoon was two rounds of Port Royal to set free our very own inner pirate.

After that I went home and stayed there as it was too late to go to Mariahilf anymore - I'll do that today.

Later we just went onto the couch and watched tv shows, with support from our cats.

Mittagessen

Nachdem wir heute Nachmittag wieder Brot und Spiele haben, gab es auch ein Mittagessen.

Serbisches Reisfleisch mit Salat vom Buffet


Exhausted at home

Yesterday after work I just went home and had to lie down for a bit. It must have been rather bad, because even the cats didn't try to wake me up again. Once I was back on my feet though the crying and moaning for food began and so I fed them and then entertained them as well.

Some time later we went onto the couch and watched the usual tv shows.

Mittagessen

Mangels Alternativen in der Kantine, sind wir wieder einmal zu Burgerista gefahren.


Usual work day

Yesterday after work I went to my parents for a nice dinner which was a curd cake with vanilla sauce.


After that I went home and back out to buy food for our cats at our vet.

Later that evening we just went onto the couch and watched tv shows - so now we are up to date with the latest british tv shows.

Mittagessen

Nachdem der falsche Schnitzeltag schon gestern war, gab es heute

Kebap


Graduating with some hearty food

Yesterday I took the day off, since my dear was graduating. So I used the spare time in the morning to do some chores and at noon the ceremony was beginning.


After that we went to a nearby restaurant for late lunch/early dinner, where we got some hearty austrian food with approriate dimensions as well.


In the evening my dear was invited by friends and so I stayed home with the cats to entertain them and did the rest of the chores. In between I listened to podcasts and also started this year's Halloween festivals in Guild Wars 2.

Film Review: Blade Runner 2049

This monday it was time to go to the movies again, since last week we cancelled our trip we saw Blade Runner 2049 this week.


The movie is about the Blade Runner K, who hunts and retires (= kills) replicants. This is pretty much the same story as the first movie, but now here's he twist (SPOILER!) - he himself is also a replicant. This means that you get a different view on his world and his work. His only companion is a hologram which keeps him company and sane.

The main story is about the replicant Rachel from the first movie and that she had a child. Since this was not part of the original plan, everyone is out to hunt for that child - including our Blade Runner.

While searching for the child, K meets with Deckert - the Blade Runner from the first movie - who also happens to be the father of said child.

The movie provides a lot of long and aesthetical scenes with dark music. The action sequences have all been used in the trailers before, so nothing new here. The movie is quite long - almost 3 hours - and therefore many people will find it too long. Still the movie is a cinematic experience no to be missed.

Conclusion: I really liked this movie a lot and it wasn't too long for me either - that's because I'm also not grasping the concept of quick action sequences which started a while back, I might be too old for that. The only thing I didn't like was that the speakers in the movie theatre was not handling the sound very well and thus some music parts were not very good to listen to.

Mittagessen

Die Woche fängt wieder etwas bescheiden an, was die Kantinenauswahl betrifft.

Gebratene Putenstreifen mit Gemüse und Gnocchi


Und es geht auch relativ uninteressant weiter.


Is it a sin really?

Since you are reading this, we didn't go through with our plan to do another cruise just yet. Instead we stayed home and started playing the new Divinity Original Sin 2 together and we really liked it.


The rest of the day we did some chores and of course we went out to vote.

In the evening it was couch time with tv show again - which our pussy cat really liked as she was sleeping on me the whole time.

Some baking and day dreaming

This saturday morning I quickly baked a cake for my dear since she was invited to a party that afternoon.

I spent most of the day doing the presentation of our last cruise and in the end finished about one third of it. In between I had to play with the cats of course, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to work at all.

In the evening we found out that we are ready for our next vacation and that the Norwegian Getaway, the cruise ship we were on during our last vacation, was leaving for american waters today and there are still spaces left...

Friday as usual

This friday after work - and a short stop back home - I went to Mariahilf. A nice plate of schnitzel at mySchnitzel was my lunch.

At Planet Harry I bought some smaller games and then together with my dear we went on to walk down Mariahilferstrasse.

On our way back home we stopped at Sichuan for dinner.


Later that evening we just went onto the couch and watched tv shows.
