I...I can't believe it.  



He's...he's a fencer. 

I can't believe it.  He's a fencer.  He fences f*cking epee.   

I just found out from an entry [profile] nowitzki_daily that not only does he play tennis, golf, and saxophone, he also fences.  With thanks to [profile] robtengel, I got to see him in all of his knicker-y glory. I should have known what weapon; epeeists are known for being ridiculously tall and slimmer than other fencers (speaking as the stocky, barbaric sabrist that I am! ;^).  

I didn't think he could get any cooler.  I didn't think I could like/worship/admire him any more than I already do.  And then he shows up in fencing whites. 

I think...I think I'm going to die now.

Exactly. I couldn't agree with you more on your first sentence.

Ooh, the "green heart of Germany"; that appeals to my poetic sensibility! It sounds beautiful! I'm from Ashton, a very small town in Maryland. Its very rural and green and I like it that way; my family still lives there. Right now, I'm living in Virginia, in a small town where I went to graduate school. I'm close enough to DC to enjoy the city every once in a while but far away to get away from it when I want to!

Unfortunately, the German teacher at the school I attended left the school, which only left the French and Spanish teachers. It was disappointing, to be sure. It probably depends on the school system, but I know friends who went to schools where they learned German, Latin, even Russian! Thanks for the offer with the help. We'll see how I do when I try to pick it up this summer! =^)

Yeah, that's what i love about my hometown, too. It's small enough (about 100.000 people) to be in a green surrounding when you need it, but you have all advantages of a big city. Big cinemas, supermartkets open till 8pm (during the Wm even till 10pm!), some clubs. It's really okay here.

Okay, here is a german sentence you definitly need to know: Dirk ist süß!!! *ggg*

It sounds like a wonderful town! We don't have that many clubs here; we still have to go to DC for that kind of action! =^)

I love your icon btw...Its so true!

Dirk is ...what? (Sexy, I'm guessing?)

Meeeeeep, no, wrong... *lol*
Dirk ist süß means Dirk is sweet or cute.

He is sexy, yeah, but that's not the point i love about him...

Thank you about the icon. It really fits in the moment!

Ah yes, he is sweet. I like that.

Each day we should have a new word in german about what he is...A post of "Dirk is/ist..." and we get to complete the phrase!
