Happy Valentine's Day

Yesterday, I read Skin by Ted Dekker. I could not put it down. ...I guess I had forgotten how good his books can be. It kept me guessing the entire time. The primary ending was a good twist, but it kind of took away more than it added, I think. You get to know these characters throughout the book and then, in the end, all this history with these characters is erased. And the secondary ending was unnecessary... very matrixesque. But it was definitely a good read.

Nidhal and I had his favorite breakfast: toast with a variety of possible toppings (cheese, meat, cream cheese, etc.). I also made a cake in the shape of a heart. And for dinner, there is a variety of food (lamb, chicken, potatoes, fennel salad, and a tomato/zucchini thing).

I always forget what I want to write when I get here.

On Friday, I finished The Hobbit in German, and then I read Skin and now I'm reading Helden Wie Wir by Thomas Brussig.
