If you want to come visit me, my futon is your futon.  I don&#8217;t live in Holland&#8217;s most exciting town, but I&#8217;m a short and cheap train ride away from some more exciting towns, like Amsterdam.  Also, near to Belgium, a bit farther to Cologne.  (the most exciting thing about going to Cologne, IMHO, is not Europe&#8217;s largest cathedral, but rather that the train passes through Gouda!!  Home of cheese! (sort of))<br \/>\nLast year, about one person a month came through.  It was nice to have people around.  I got caught up in &#8216;merican stuff and went and did touristy things with them.  Touristy things are fun, but I tend not to do them unless I have some sort of reason.  However, yesterday I went to a couple museums in The Hague.  They were a bit small, but not bad.  I purchased a museum card which will gain me free entry into nearly every museum in the Netherlands.  Huzzah.<br \/>\nAlso, recently, I went to Cologne for the Computing Music festival. (Did I blog this already?)  Twas fun.  They had instrument-playing robots.  The robots have a call for scores, so I will have to make a journey to Gent, Belgium to try out some robot stuff.  I need to download some robot manuals to figure out what to do.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve 60% decided that I should enlist Cola to retrieve Xena when she sees her parents.  Xena would then fly direct from L.A. to Amsterdam.  I need to confer with a vet to see what risks this entails for my poor dog.  Also need to confer with the landlord.<br \/>\nIf I sell my house in Berkeley, what will I do with all my stuff?  I don&#8217;t think I should ship my grandmother&#8217;s piano to Europe . . ..  I wish I could find a job as a composer that would pay to relocate me.<br \/>\nIn other news:  Nicole is going nuts from boredom and some mother fucking spammer keeps listing me as a return address, which means my inbox fills up with hundreds of bounce messages every day, which aren&#8217;t spam-filtered out because they&#8217;re not spam.  augh.  kill.<br \/>\nTags: <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/The+Hague\" rel=\"tag\">The Hague<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Celesteh\" rel=\"tag\">Celesteh<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I would like to start by noting that I can&#8217;t connect to blogger for some reason from my school network lately, so I&#8217;m posting this via lynx in a shell account I have in the US.
