I very much enjoyed my time in germany. Tomorrow I will go to Paris and meet my friends, then return to Germany to say goodbye to my relatives, then back to buffalo.

Too much energy to type. So, I'm still alive and sleeping in Brusseles tonight.
Ciao, LC

Sunshine, how I missed thee.

spent

Jerk chicken 45 minutes late.

European sausage 30 minutes late.

$50 short on the empanadas.

However... I managed to coordinate almost 200 volunteers and round up raffle prizes upward of $3,000 and made around $500 on raffles tickets. I'm proud of myself. It was a LOT of work.

Now just as soon as we wrap everything up, I want to go to bed.

Euro conversions I can afford!

Thank God for my European friends. I'm not sure I would have discovered this on my own. I leave for Germany in 8 days. To save my precious time while I'm there I would like to hop between some countries with flights versus train. I seriously just found a flight from Germany to Sweden for 15 Euro! Ok I know you can't get there by train anyway, but that's just an example. Even more crazy than that...a FREE flight to Ireland! This is most helpful since I've been dicked over on my pay. Plus I just found out my uncle is still in Paris, so I have a place to crash. Man I need this mental vaca so bad, even though the amazing sex last night blissfully calmed my nerves.

leavin oooooon a jet plaaaaaane, don't know when I'll be back againnnnn....

dear guest

I haven't been able to get into my post-its for a while. Last night I finally got in and there was a surprising message from a guest. It says, "love you more than you'll ever know". I can read that several different ways. Is it from a sibling, a friend, a stranger, guy, girl? No matter what the context, it made me smile. So I want to say thanks. I know it was sent last week, but I got to it at just the right time.
