Klebstreifen - adhesive tape

silly - capitalizing german nouns. capitalizing anything, really.

okay - the commonly used word for tape is definitely not klebstreifen, i learned that much today. much pointing, "bitte"s and "danke"s later i managed to get a role of scotch tape. dan's co-workers inform him that one should ask for tesa film - tesa being a brandname.

it snowed today! quite a bit actually. we went out to dinner and took a walk in the snow because that's just not something you can do in the bay area.
