It would be beneficial to both students and staff if we scheduled more snow days

-J. Warner

Never more true words by a very intelligent man.

For the first time in my life I do not have school five days a week. I am blessed with only three and the other two are mine, mine, mine! Germany is also pretty awesome in the sense that they have holidays gallore. The kind where you get school off. For everything.

Feast of the Ascension? No school.
Worker's Day? Nope.
Pentacost? A whole week of no school.
Father's Day? Good morning, sunshine! Sleep in, today you don't have school.

If we find that 3 day school week = t. And high amounts of days off anyway = h.
Then t + h = a really happy Becca.

And this would be where my math skills go down the drain because the less days of school I have means the less of those holidays I actually get off. So while today may be a really neat excuse to get out of school, I don't even have school anyway. Bummer.

Either way though, I am pretty sure I win.

However, I disgress. Today is Father's day in Germany and while I've heard some horror stories of middle aged men being carted around in wheelbarrows out of incapacitated-ness it is currently noon in Germany and I haven't seen a one. Maybe later, who knows? Either way, here's a shout out to all the dad's in my life. You know who you are. And if you don't, chances are you're Eric.
