(and that’s a good thing)
Soccer: Germany and Spain are off to the Half-finals along with Uruguay and the Netherlands. Germany destroyed Argentina 4-0 and the Hollanders surprised Brazil. My vote says the endgame will pit Germany against the Netherlands.
Sunday means cafés and walking paths will be full. They mean families will be together and about 30% of the German population (I’ll check the statistic again, but it sounds right) will be in church. It’s the last day of the week on the German calendar, as opposed to the first in the US. Nothing wrong with either view, it’s just a convention.
The point of my writing today is the weather. For the first time this week, it’ll be under 90° F. 90 is my breaking point. I don’t take long walks, don’t do anything strenuous. I become even more of a vegetable than I normally am. Even though it’s walking weather, I’m passing on the obligatory Sunday walk and opting for working on my book notes. I found a few things I’d forgotten about and they’ve brought me back to a unified way of thinking about the plot. I’ve been having problems with the disjunctive temporal aspects of it and the notes are about space and time. No more hints today…..
