Anyway in kinda a blah mood. I think the weather is just getting to me. I'm also not feeling well. I was tired at work and I got home and made a cup of tea and relaxed with a book, and pretty soon I was falling asleep. And I just enjoyed the nap and went to bed early. And woke up with a sore throat. GAH! I was just sick last month, this better just be from no sleep over the weekend. So counted a TON of money today, it is the first round of society balls and so they are bringing in tons of money in ticket sales. So I counted out 9,000 and then 14,000 euro in notes. It is so crazy to see that much money at one time. So tonight I'm just relaxing and maybe heading to the pub, we'll see how I feel.
