A Good Rainy Weekend

[ceitfianna]

The rain has been going all weekend and delayed my brother's flight arriving last night from Chicago but he arrived and we had a late dinner and a good time. This morning we had brunch and we've been talking about everything from books to jobs to travel and I've missed him so much. I'm lucky that I really love all my siblings and this brother is the one I see least as he lives so far away.

Since he didn't bring a book with him, I gave him To Say Nothing of the Dog to read which makes me happy. I love being able to recommend a book and then say, here, now you can read it. In exchange I was given French cheese and amazing chocolates, which are waiting for me after work.

wanderlustlover just posted this meme and it looks like it has the possibility of being rather fascinating.

Comment and I will comment back with a picture of the fictional character that most reminds me of you. Then post the same in your journal.

I completely get that as I'm the same way. My mother calls it grasshopper brain but I tend to think of it as I'm rather like Tiwa. Oh is that icon of you in NYC?

No, that's not Manhattan, it's 'Mainhattan' -- Frankfurt. The only skyscrapered city in Germany. The pointy highrise in the background is the Messeturm, or Trade Fair Tower, which I use in the icons for the tall office building of the bad guys in my else!game. As that's not far from Wiesbaden, I found it sort of fitting.

*peers* Okay, I see now. I've only flown through Frankfurt.

Yes, that skyscraper is rather iconic; when you fly over Frankfurt in a holding pattern, you'll notice the red tower with the pyramid on top.
