A Useless Holiday

Today in Germany is a funny little holiday called Buß and Bettag. Basically, it's a day of repentance for all the religious people in Germany. Well, Saxony actually. The rest of Germany voted it out of the paid day off plan. Saxony decided to keep it for the church goers.

Too bad most—about 90%—are atheist.

So we have this paid day off in the middle of the week and it's ok. I can fix some photos, sleep in and just be a couch potato. I like it. Plus, I get paid for it!
