tuesday monday

I reset my alarm for 9:45 saturday night in order to get up for my bike ride with Ruedee.  I never reset it....and didnt get to work until around 10:30 monday morning.  Woops.  Work went fine and I got introduced to a new program that I will be working on with a designer named Francois.  He is just doing this one project as a sort of trial period and then he may join GP full time or freelance or something.  It is a really fun project and I am excited to work on it with him.  After work Pierre, Miljan, and Fabio were all hanging out in the common eating area on our floor and all wanted to go play fussball on the table in the entrance to our building.  I have never thought that it was a game of skill--just sort of freak out and spin the handles real fast--but they were all like super into it...and good.  We played so long that my back started to hurt--Im too tall for fussball--and then they walked into the gym to show fabio who had never seen it before.  We walked in and there was a super huge buff dude doing pushups so I just stood at the door so I wouldnt make it awkward for him.  But all the other boys went in, and I swear--in less than 10 seconds all three of them were working out.  Miljan was first with backwards sit ups on some contraption, then Fabio started doing pullups, and then Pierre lays down right next to the guy doing push ups and starts pounding some out.  I was just standing at the door in amazement....and laughing hysterically.  They were all super serious--and just like walked in and started pumping in less than 10 seconds.  I told them why I was lauphing on the elevator ride back to our floor and they all realized how silly the scene was--one huge buff guy working out by himself and then all of a sudden 3 guys in normal clothes walk in and start working out--one right beside him.  Then, they all leave after about 45 seconds.

Today went well.  Francois and I walked around the main shopping area of Vienna to do some research for our project and I saw some really beautiful stuff that I wanted to buy!  I told him about Kai's and got him hungry for sushi so Klemens, Ruedee, Francois and I all went there for lunch.  But on the walk home from work Klemens and I agreed that we have about had it with Kai's for the next few weeks--I never thought the day would come.  I guess too much of a good thing...is still too much.
