Michael had the day off today. If he didn’t have it off, I would’ve told him to take a vacation day since it’s our anniversary! In Germany, if the holiday (such as Christmas) falls on a weekend, you’re SOL! Luckily, they take the 25th (Christmas) and 26th (Boxing Day), so at least he had 1 day! Next year, I don’t think he’ll get off any days at all! Sucks! Here we thought ahhh, we’ll get tons of vacation and holidays in Germany! We made the most of our days, spent it unpacking and working on the yearly “Litterbox”. I know that there is no way we’ll finish it this year. But we should be done next month. I decided to get started on some exercise (go figure - it’s icy and snowing and not to mention cold, cold, cold on most days), but I’m going to start very slow. It’s so weird because I walk so much now that walking isn’t really exercise anymore. I did pick up the pace a bit, mostly to keep warm. People passing by me have these huge coats and hats on, and here I am in my leggings and thin jacket. I did wear my gloves though. In order to totally make the exercise useless, we went to Jeetas for dinner. It is an indian restaurant right down the street, and it is very inviting because of the lighting and star theme that they have. I’ve been wanting to go there, but didn’t really have the opportunity. The food was really good, the samosas were excellent, not as good as Shamiana back home, but decent enough. The naan was really good, really fresh. I had the vindaloo, and my god, it was super spicy, I could hardly eat 1/2 of it. I think I like this place better than Sitar, which a lot of people say is the best Indian in Munich.
