The Never Ending Story...Continued...actually coming to an end...so it's not neverending

Guten Tag Leute!

Hello again readers.  So,  I know what you are thinking and yes, it has been a very long time since either Meri or I have updated you on our adventures/crazy lives.

So here is an update on what we have been doing:

Both Meri and I have been super busy.  During Christmas break Meri and I met up in Amsterdam for a New Years celebration.  We spent 4 days there biking, partying, eating, shamelessly walking the streets, and couchsurfing with our friendly, but a little bit strange, host, Fabian.

How to describe Fabian?  He is a little like a wannabe gangster but not so much gangster.  I guess it is hard to say, but just imagine you are staying with a complete stranger that you met online who just opens his home to hundreds of guests a year (he says he's had hundreds) and doesn't know how to use a heater in the dead of winter.  Yeah, that is exactly what Meri and I did.  Fortunately, he turned out to be a pretty normal guy, however, I say normal lightly.  Meri definitely approved of him on the last day.

While we were saying goodbye and getting ready to leave, Meri gave Fabian a parting kiss.  Now I know it was an accident, one went in for a hug while the other a cheek kiss, and one thing led to another and there you have it, lips were locked!  I really can never let her live this one down.  I just wish I had a camera to document and share with all of you.  I really had to just turn around and laugh a little on the inside.

After Amsterdam, and Meri's unfortunate collision with Fabian, we got busy preparing for the end of winter semester and all the dreadful exams that come with it.

February was, well, great.  Meri left for Finland the day after the semester ended for a big party hosted by her home university.  She had a blast seeing all her old friends and her family.  I also left the same day for Valencia, Spain.  I was there for 4 days.  Meri was gone for almost 2 weeks.  Lets just say I missed her loads.

I finally purchased a second or third, maybe even fourth hand bike.  The first day Meri and I hit the road with our bikes together, she was hit with a car.  But don't fret, my readers, it was very lightly and she was not injured.  The guy seemed very sincerely sorry and we went on our way.  The guy even recognized Meri the next day while were were having lunch out and came to apologize once more.

March has been a little bit slower.  The weather has been so good we have spent many of the days out at the park.  The first day out we lost the volleyball in the river.  Our friend, being the good citizen that he is, stripped down to absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing, to jump in the river and retrieve it.  Just think,  we were in a public park set up next to a playground with tons of other people enjoying the first good weather of the year.  Lets just say we got a lot of attention for those few minutes we had a naked guy in our group.

Also I wanted to share with you guys something very special that happened recently.  The neverending story has finally ended.  It happened on a cold rainy night in.  Meri finally got to put her nipple to my bellybutton.  Yes, it is true she was overly ecstatic when I gave her the permission to do it.  She almost didn't believe me.  All you really need to know is that it was about the weirdest most awkward situation I have been in for a while.  I honestly can say that I don't think even Meri enjoyed it that much either.

Well there you have it...an ending to a ridiculous but fabulous memory that I may or may not want to remember.

Oh and today we leave you with this clip.  It's also pretty freaking ridiculous.  Leave some comments and let us know what you think.  I will tell you in both Meri's and my opinions, we do not support her ideas or words.



And of course we couldn't leave without the song of the day:
