Germany: New in Erlangen and not prepared:

Hello, Just thought I'd try to reach out here. I've been in Erlangen for a week now, and will stay here 6-12 months for a job. This job came up quickly and after a week I've made some good progress (apartment, laundry etc), but am still very isolated. I know pretty much no German. I'm very impressed with Germany, but everything is such a challenge for me. I spent a few hours trying to google how the laundromats (waschsalons) work. Anyway if anyone has any tips, or wants to meetup for drinks, or golf that'd be great. My wife will be here in about 10 days and she's much more outgoing than me. We like to make friends and try our best to integrate. (we're hoping that after this 6-12 job we'll be returning again in about a year) Tips on how to get by without knowing any German yet would be very appreciated. Even getting something to eat is tedious. (I'm not in the apartment yet, so I have no icebox/stove/ etc) Thanks!
