meikes schöne wohnung

it´s great, 2.stock, with a balkon, an american closet, an open kitchen and a bedroom. it´s all bright and yellow and orange- sunflowered and sponge painted. very meike. when ikea sorts things, vases or wrapping paper or whatever- i´m such a sucker for the green-blue-purple combination (see kitchen cabnets). meike is the red-orange-yellow version sort. that´s us, 2 completely different color schemes, but we both shop at ikea. we bonded in the bathroom about both having sparren undersink cabnet. we both took a nap, then michi called.* we ate dinner and looked at pictures, listened to christmas music. (i pod is currently named pearl. mom´s idea, since it´s pearlywhite, and it makes mine and allie´s a nice sisterly pair- ruby and pearl) i slept fitfully and woke up about 5. no clue as to what time it was. it seemed so dark, but i felt i´d been sleeping forever. when meike got up an hour later, i finally had a point of reference. she sounded like she was trying not to wake me in the kitchen, so i tried to say in german, "i´m not really asleep, zou can be loud" she said in english, "oh, i think it´s too early to be loud" and i tried to say in german "then your bread can be loud," cause i don´t know the word for toast. she laughed so i felt successful.
