Much like watching someone skydive with a faulty parachute, observing the dollar’s free-fall has been an oddly thrilling and awe-inspiring experience (although with significantly less schadenfreude). I took 100€ out of the Bancomat today, and don’t even want to think about how many USD that was.

Once again I napped today, a habit which will not serve me well when my sleep schedule is even more off than usual upon my return. I have a voice lesson in a few minutes and then go to Bellaria to sing a scene and an aria before the one-act.
