PICS
Today I shot with Shazzy. Get excited.
Now, I'm drowning in German fairy tales. These are significantly harder to read than more modern texts. A lot of the words are obsolete, I'm discovering. "Hmm, WTF is this?" is my mantra.
I don't normally read German with a dictionary, but I have to use one to get through these stories. Plus, there is all this crap about horses and knights and all these things that I really know nothing about, so I'm not familiar with the related vocabulary.
Hell, I don't know shit about horses or knights in the English-language realm.

Fairy tales are awesome.
Most have some type of lesson to learn in them.
Have fun reading those old tales.

SO excited for the new set!
Also, so jealous that you can read German. I minored in English but any other language is beyond my comprehension

Excited to hear of a new set.
I remember very little of my high school German, although I think I can probably still count to 100.

the horses are the ones with four legs and a tail, the knights have two 
(unless we're talking about chess . . . )
