a real post for once

a week of lame half-assed posts...it seems time for something real...

it seems this weekend was the exact opposite of the previous weekend...not a party or crazy night in sight...friday miriam spent the night so we could watch sex and the city on M6 (the poor darling doesn't have a television so she has to come all the way to gondecourt to get a little tv action)...saturday we went into lille and met up with aaron in the park...we TRIED to play frisbee again but it was absolutely pitiful...i place full blame on aaron's lame, free frisbee...that, and the sun was in my eyes...yeah! the sun! unfortunately we spent most of the time fishing the frisbee out of bushes and flower beds...oh well, we had a good laugh, quand même...

saturday evening i spent hanging out with M...that's right ladies and gents...miss picky has met someone...he's terribly sweet, cute, and yes, french...in fact he's from my little town! what are the chances...that's all i'm saying at this point...

sunday i spent the day reading and knitting (my latest project is almost finished!!!) and watched lord of the rings on tv...yesterday was a holiday so i went to lille for lunch with aaron...afterwards we went to see de battre mon coeur s'est arrêté...fantastic film! go see it when it comes out in the states...then we met up with carolyn for some coffee...

last night i was super contente because the wizard of oz was on tv...and in v.o....you know, it doesn't take much to make me happy!!!

so all in all, a very calm, yet very nice weekend...next weekend it's back to the craziness...i'm sure we'll be going out every night...we only have five weeks left on our contracts (three weeks of work and two weeks of vacation!!!) so we'll be getting our last kicks here in lille...sniff sniff...it's too soon to talk about the end!!!

as much as I definitely enjoy solitude
i wouldn't mind, perhapse,
spending a little time with you
sometimes, sometimes...
possibly maybe
probably, love...
mon petit vulcan
your eruptions and disasters
i keep calm
admiring your lava
i keep calm...

-possibly maybe, björk
