Well, it looks like you guys think I should take german. Have you no respect for my boring boring first half of the semester?? I'll be all 'I had tea with soymilk and boiled eggs for breakfast, GOD, I don't know what YOU guys had,' while the rest of the class is struggling to remember what 'pancakes' are in german (because, see, my greatest exposure to german as a kid was with food words so I know a ton of them, which is useful in restaurants and grocery stores but seldom elsewhere (and even then I'm all, god, I know ice cream, but what's 'scoop'? What's 'cone'? Goddamn it!)). So everyone will think I am an asshole. Who doesn't know what an ice cream cone is, somehow. AND YOU WANT ME TO DO THIS?
Well, okay. Maybe.

Oh, and the einmal (zweimal etc.) thing sounds right to me. Where are they from? We were mostly in Koeln, but I swear I heard that in Frankfurt too.

My grandmother lives in Wuerzburg (I am too lazy to charmap u-umlaut right now). I don't know how far from there she grew up, though.
