Good times last night. Biked in really heavy snow with my friend Keinst to Cartoon, a restaurant that has 3-euro pasta dishes on Sunday nights. We met up with Eileen there, and by coincidence also met up with friends Steven and Tim. We sat at the restaurant until about 10:30, and then went outside to see a pretty good layer of fresh snow covering everything. Steven made a little snowman (which a drunk guy later knocked over, lol), and Tim and Eileen made a big snowman, except it ended up being a snow-monkey, due to the simian facial features.
We then played a rousing game of snow dodgeball, and then walked up into the pretty park behind us, attempting to throw snowballs into the lake below.
I think this is the first time I've actually "played" in the snow since coming to Germany--it was a lot of fun! The only part that sucked was biking back with wet gloves...I seriously started wondering how long it took for frostbite to set in because my fingers hurt so much!
