Crazy, crazy dreams...47 more days left
Mood:  caffeinated

This morning as I sat down at my computer I looked over at my calendar and went, "Wow, next week is the last full week of March."  After all these years of daydreaming and all these months of counting down, I'm only a month and a half away. 

 I keep having these crazy dreams where my partner and I are in Belgrade and I've had my surgery.  I'm always a little bummed when I wake up and find that it was just a dream...sigh. 

I went and bought my euros two weeks ago, that was a sad day due to the value of the US dollar vs. the Euro.  As I was filling out my withdrawal sheet the bank teller said, "Wow, this is bad timing, you should have bought these last year at this time because it would have been the reverse exchange rate."  I just looked at him and shrugged my shoulders because what can I do about it.  If I put my surgery off, the rate would likely only weaken or regain in value ever so slowly, so I'm just going with the flow and hoping that I get a couple homes sold before May 2nd.  It is possible...we'll see if it happens.

Name: "Kellan"

Don't worry, the teller is full of it. The last time the dollar was worth more than the euro was in 2002, and it's been slipping badly for at least two years now. I think you're right that you should just go for it now, because things are only going to get worse. By the way, I asked some people in TG-Europe if they know anyone in Belgrade; I'll let you know if I hear anything.
