In honour of Der Tag der Deutschen Einheit (which I honestly didn't know about until LJ told me), here's a picture of
mr_t00by at the site of the (former) Berlin Wall, with one foot in the East and one in the West:

I'd do what LJ's Writer's Block suggests and talk about the Cold War, but my brain is fried from being in two political systems at once last night (AVISO: This condition will likely not last long, you have been warned).

I should celebrate this day more. Without the wall coming down I wouldn't be in Canada now - anyway, they chose this date randomly. We actually should celebrate November 9., the day the wall really did fall.

Even more reason to celebrate!

That's weird, huh? I wonder why they do that. We have Monday holidays in the US, where we celebrate the holiday on the closest Monday (so it's a long weekend), but the holiday is never more than two or three days different.
Even weirder: the woman who's married to the Berlin wall.

All right, on November 9. the wall came down but one year late on October 3. we officially became one country again. I still think they should have synced that.

Oh, okay, that makes a little more sense, but I agree with you. If the wall hadn't come down, Germany wouldn't have become one country again, so really, it's the most important part of things.

*sigh* These long-distance relationships can be tough sometimes.
