That was NOT the kind of email I wanted to come home to. The person who came by to look at the place decided that she wanted her own place instead and wouldn't be looking for a roommate after all. This is really starting to infuriate me.
Went to a German Mai Fest at the German/Texan Heritage Center, which was terribly boring. Accordian music and German folk dancing are not my thing. Ran into someone from the German group I tried out for a while but didn't really like, and he asked why I hadn't been able to make it. I haven't been to that group since November.
So, after leaving there, I decided to take a drive and go see Lake Travis, since I hadn't yet. I hesitate to call it big, since to me a big lake is one you can't see the other side of, but it's large enough to accommodate lots of boats. It's a nice area. There's also a nudist park there, heh.

These signs make me laugh.

Isn't ths house cool looking? I love the domed roof in the middle.

Went to Hula Hut for dinner since I was kinda craving shrimp enchiladas, and ordered desert too, since the desert menu there is awesome. I always feel bad when I go out to eat and take up a 4 person table by myself. I'll sit at the bar if they have one, but some restuarants don't. And that's a lot of unused table space when people are waiting. I'm told that in Germany it's not uncommon for people to sit at your table if you have empty seats. I've never had it happen since I was always with a group on the occassion that I went to a sit-down restaurant. But if it is the case, it's certainly an efficient custom.
By the way, would anyone be willing to beta my remix? :)

That house is definitely huge! There are a lot of huge houses along the lake.

*shudders* You should try German fun punk instead. Like, Die Ärzte. They can't sing, but at least they start being funny after awhile. ;)
