The first day of spring has arrived and I am glad that the winter is over. Although it is still somewhat cold in the mornings (sometimes still in the afternoon), the scent of spring can be perceived in the air and that is comforting.

It's funny. After and during the cold winter you long for a hot summer. When the hot summer arrives you long for the cold winter. Very strange.

I plan to revel in the heat this summer and completely abandon all notions of the cold winter that approaches. At least that is my plan. I will sip a glass of humidity this summer and dread the days when it again turns cold and the snow envelops me in a cloak of cold.

You seem to have several seasons a year. Interesting concept.

Yes. But the fact that you want one while experiencing another is the point I was making.

Currently spring, but still feeling like winter. I want summer.

When summer arrives, I hope to palate it. But will probably want winter.

Strange days indeed.

I wasn't dismissing what you said. Almost all of us have those "the other grass is greener" moments. I was just making a cheap shot about my local lack of weather variation.

Understood. No insult on my part intended either.

So my car caught fire today. Was a fun experience.

Not being able to shake my sinus headache during the faculty meeting and my subsequent workout now doesn't seem so bad. Thanks HG

Ironically, I came here to post about a fire. My sympathies, Hookah, you seem to be really unlucky recently.

The Ministry of Culture renovates one of the oldest mosques in Europe.
They use flame-cutting torches near buckets full of dye (which everyone having graduated from the elementary school knows that they are flammable).

Workers smell fire yesterday, call the firefighters, who, according to reports, either didn't see anything or tried to extinguish the fire, without checking out if the fire was really gone.
During the night, the mosque is burnt entirely.
I sincerely hope for the time that our German overlords assume control of that joke we call our homeland.

Gah!

In what seems to be a break from a string of bad luck, I got an interview with a prestigious company for a summer internship! Finally something good.
