Well, dang it

Fiddling: (from the unabridged Random House Dictionary) 6. to make trifling or fussing with the hands (often fol. by with): fiddling with his cuffs
So when someone says that he is "fiddling with the remote" it is, in fact, proper grammar.

The weather continues to be fabulous. I haven't really done all that much in the past couple of days. On Saturday I went to the beach, and they have started charging people to enter, bummer. After deciding that I haven't spoken enough German lately, I paid the 1.50 entrance fee. We were going to try to meet up with some Frisbee people there, and Martin was there, hooray! He also brought friends, then Lutz came, and more friends came (some left, well, one), and I ended up spending about seven hours at the beach. We were throwing a frisbee, lounged around, and grilled, wonderful!

And Sunday I went for another really long. I keep pushing myself, this time I was out for 70 minutes, yes! There is a half marathon in Crystal Lake in September and I would really like to run it.

And now it is only 2 days until I leave for Berlin! Hooray! It is Dean's birthday, plus seeing all of those wonderful frisbee people, plus a three day tournament on sand in the middle of Berlin.

Hi Lori! Woo-hoo, Berlin tomorrow, but you're probably on your way there now. So did you make a bet with Dean about fiddling, or what?

And what is your point about fiddling any way. By the way what does the Oxford Unabridged dictionary say about fiddling.
