Seeing:
* my brand new curtains hanging in the window, and man, do they make a world of difference.

Hearing:
* an episode of This American Life on my iPod on the way to Hannover last weekend.

Tasting:
* a Franzbrötchen for breakfast this morning (think cinnamon roll, only flatter and without all the icing).

Smelling:
* absolutely nothing. I can barely even breath through my nose these days (see below).

Feeling:
* aches and pains from this dang cold I’ve picked up.
