Anyone keeping up with the new season of Venture Brothers? Holy Hell, it is so good.
So last night I went out to the bars with some friends.While I was talking to a friend, some french guys noticed I was speaking English and came over to talk with me. They were really nice, and invited us to an apartment party. Long story short, I got some date proposals! They are not my type, but still, it was pretty nice to be asked if I wanted to go out on a date sometime. But I know they were only interested because I was American. Can I blame them? I am always on the prowl for french dudes. Oh and speaking of French dudes, today in my Aikido class I had the MOST BEAUTIFUL partner. He wasn't very good at Aikido, but in "looking totally beautiful" department he was right on the money. Can't wait for next Friday.
So can we talk about the greatest invention ever right quick? CHEESEBURGER FLAVORED POTATO CHIPS. Do they have these in the U.S.? If they do, I have been wasting my life. These chips are saving me from my cheeseburger withdrawls. Why, you may ask?

| They put the taste of a cheeseburger into fries, basically. Who knew we had this kind of technology? |
BECAUSE THEY TASTE SPECIFICALLY LIKE WHOPPER JUNIORS. Lord knows I love me some whopper juniors. They only sell these chips at Carrefour (french wal-mart) which I have to take the bus (20 minutes) to get to, so when I went the last time I bought 4 bags. Fatty Fatty Chicken Patty!
SO in other news, I found the most awesome vintage clothing store in Aix this past week. It's called Blow Up and it is a lot like Time Warp in Baton Rouge but crazy cheap. I think the reason for this is that is because french people in Aix aren't really into the vintage/indie look. Here is a cool dress I bought for 15 Euros!
Okay, so I will end this post with a video, going out to my Femme Fatale Lauren Whitmore. In fact, I am putting two videos because I could not chose between them. They are both from the Andy Griffith Show, and they both kill me.
A quote from the great Pablo Neruda:
So I wait for you like a lonely house
Till you see me again and live in me.
Till then my windows ache
Don't go far off, not even for a day, because --
RépondreSupprimerbecause -- I don't know how to say it: a day is long
and I will be waiting for you, as in an empty station
when the trains are parked off somewhere else, asleep.
Don't leave me, even for an hour, because
then the little drops of anguish will all run together,
the smoke that roams looking for a home will drift
into me, choking my lost heart.
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach;
may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance.
Don't leave me for a second, my dearest,
because in that moment you'll have gone so far
I'll wander mazily over all the earth, asking,
Will you come back? Will you leave me here, dying?
1) Venture Bros. new season is fucking great. Can you believe Hank lost his fucking virginity??? I love where they're going with this season.
RépondreSupprimer2) They make cheeseburger flavored Doritos here and they are SO GROSS. And yes, they had them before you went to France.
Speaking of VB, already ordered my leotard and gold knee high socks to fake her boots for a very Venture Bros Halloween. Just gotta get fabric from the store and some spray paint! GO TEAM VENTURE!
Love love love you!
You're best pal-o in the BR,
