I.O.U.

Today was cloudy.
I had a kiwi, a banana and coffee for breakfast.
Melanie went to look at the Reichstag et al and Me and Jane went to the Guggenheim and a gallery called Hamburger Postbanhof.
I bought a Club Mate on the way there. The Guggenheim wasn't all that great and the premise of the exhibition wasn't very interesting or well accomplished.
The Hamburger Postbanhof gallery was great. There was a Wolfgang Tillmans exhibit and some Jeff Wall photography. There was also some Andy Warhol I had never seen and also some Jeff Koons, who I find really interesting. We had to rush a little at the end in order to be home with enough time to meet Melanie and so they could pack and catch their train to Amsterdam.
I played "Holland 1945" by Neutral Milk Hotel as they were packing and leaving my apartment.
Then I wrote a list of movies I liked from each year from 1965 until 2001.
Then I walked to work.
Work was work. I cut vegetables and made pizza dough. I served some customers but not really. I get to drink and eat as much as I want at work, which is awesome. I haven't (and won't) exploit the place for free pizza and pop and beer, but it's a great fringe benefit.
I listened to The Hold Steady when I got home and watched "Breaking Away" (1979) and downloaded some John Milton.
