Günther Makes a Comeback

That party last night was awfully crazy… and we were with the three oldest people we know in Germany. The Meyers invited us downstairs for dinner. There was no way we could get out of it since we live right upstairs and they would know we didn’t have any plans, so we were obligated to go.
Our old German teacher, Günther, was there! This is probably terrible to say, but we weren’t sure what his status was… we hadn’t heard from him or about him since November, so we had only assumed the worst. Good old Günther looked great, though.


Dinner was fish, which is my least favorite thing on earth to eat. It was the saltiest herring and smoked trout, and I somehow scarfed it down. I ate it fast and took big bites to get it over with as quick as possible. When they asked if I wanted more, I had to lie and say I was full. They also fed us three half liters of beer each.
So there I was, drunk and listening to three old German people talking about… I can only guess most of it. Günther and Alex translated most of the time, which was really helpful.



I’m pretty sure they invited us to back next weekend, too… but we were a bit intoxicated and they mumble in German. I guess this is to be continued… man, I love Melle.
