Warten Sie (Hold, please) !

Egads! Nearly a week without a post! You may have guessed it's due to our settling into a boring routine with nothing new or interesting to recount, but fortunately the opposite is true--too busy to fit a blog in edgewise. So this entry is merely a bookmark, a temporary placeholder until the melodrama continues unfolding very soon (practically speaking, part of the problem was lacking Internet access all last week awaiting reinstallation in the new apartment).

Soon to be revealed: sordid details of the new neighborhood, mysterious new Swiss "friends" with links to Argentina and Hungary, Herculean physical achievements scaling icy mountains on two legs and two wheels and four paws, and late-night salsa dancing extravaganzas a mere block from home, perhaps all peppered with some new half-baked philosophies on the emotional phases of expatriation. If that doesn't keep you tuned in, I don't know what will (ha!). Oh yeah, and did I mention the riveting ongoing quest for furniture, lamps, adaptors, cables, light bulbs, etc.?
