Goth dress for Kaltenberg

Sorry for the low quality of the pictures; you can't take better ones in a mirror, without the flash.-

( Peplum, or no peplum? )

Müllersches Volksbad

Don't say 'Bless you' -- that's what the lovely Art Nouveau bath is called, you know, the one where I go with nazgulwears  when I'm AWOL for an evening from the Intarwebz. I took these pictures a week ago, and promised to post them -- now I finally processed them, and here they are!

Dead goldfish time -- or, OMG the Intarwebz are ded!

Alice, my DSL carrier has some serious problems for some of her nodes in Munich. It's a known problem, so very known that the hotline turns me away saying internet problems for some customers in my area code are known and being worked on. Her friendly recorded voice says something about 'one or two hours', but I fear the dear lady is lying through her teeth. The problem started at one AM last night on the dot; so I suspect some scheduled maintenance of whatever gone horribly wrong -- as that is the traditional time for admins to schedule automatic maintenance.

So, I am at the Metropolitans' -- Alice is giving them no probs, as apparently they are not just 'some customers' -- catching up on stuff and writing an article until about six today (Friday), then I'll do stuff in RL and be about, and unless Alice has whipped her nodes into shape until then, I'll be offline tonight, watching crime series and/or reading 'The Harlequin'*.

Notice of dead internet AND sporadic absence and intermittency

* I HATE Anita Blake, the character, by the way.

I can has Internetz!

This very nice bloke just brought me a new 'old' phone, a very nice Nokia with Symbian as an OS, with which I took this picture. It's good enough for online. I'll be taking it tomorrow, loaded with a bit of music, and no other electronics. The Nazgul has her Nikon in her wolpertinger fur bag. We shall be fine. My belt pouch will love me for it.

Also, when he went, Alice came back. The last post still applies, though, for planned absences, but (Alice still willing), while I'm not gone, I'll be there.

And the world is ending now, thunderstorm-wise. By tomorrow noon, we will hopefully have a brand-new world in which we will go to Kaltenberg and be Ostrogothic.-
