Hi again! What do you think of our elections? That Laschet didn't congratulate Scholz was a bit "trumpic", wasn't it? :-) Well, I wanted red-green-red, but I now hope that the SPD, the Greens and the FDP can come to an agreement ... I can't say anything about the Berlin elections because I didn't want either Giffey or Jarasch and it was clear that it would be one of the two...
Well, a few more words about "Eragon". This is also more of a four-part book series. The first part was made into a film, but I don't think I've ever seen such a bad film adaptation of a novel. Dreadful. I got so angry about it for months, I'm still angry thinking about it :-) The only little bright spot was maybe Garrett Hedlund as Murtagh - everything else was horrible, terrible...
Yes, I understand what you wrote about Mel ... I'm torn too. There are scenes where I like her, find her funny or I feel sorry for her, and then there is the other side, which you also mentioned ... I like stories in which Melanie reconciles with Brian, and they do both stop to let Lindsay manipulate them both anymore. But, I'm not a Melanie lover and so I have no problem at all if you treat her as anti-Mel. Oh dear, this new chapter or the end doesn't suggest anything good. For one thing, I don't understand that she is so absolutely unreachable and I am very curious because I have absolutely no idea. On the other hand, the end of this chapter sounded like Justin and Brian won't see each other for a long time and that scares me a little...
So, looking forward to Sunday! Warmest regards ad stay healthy!

Sorry about not replying to your comment earlier - as mentioned, my brother was here and it was the first time I have seen him since Christmas, so I didn't want to spend my time on the computer when I could spend it with him ;)
Yeah, I was hoping for red-green as well and it bothers me that Lindner will most likely become the new minister of Finance (mostly because I don't want to see his arrogant face in the news day in and out), but in general I am glad that we're not having another CDU led government...
Yes, Laschet on the the eve of the election really pissed me off. You lost! Your party only came in second, so the duty to build a government doesn't lie with you, but with the SPD! It seems like he has finally accepted it though...
It looks like the elections in Berlin were quite a mess :/
Yes, this story will definitely not portray Mel in a likeable way - it will be in line with her portrayal in The Pittsburgh Years. As for Justin and Brian, Justin will only be gone for a day as planned and will then return to Pittsburgh, nothing sinister will happen to him while in Florida ;)
As always, thanks for your comment! More will be up tomorrow! :) Stay healthy!
