even in paris
<-- thine photo-eth go-eth here-eth.
even in paris. yes. even in paris i am probably the most boring person you will meet. as exciting as this is, i am no ms.glaze living out my kitchen fantasies. no, no, no. i lead a rather mundane life while abroad, or a broad since both are true. although, i have never been a man even though the name is jeorg.
i have a routine here. it involves grading and drinking lots of coffee. thinking of those shoes that thomas visited with me twice over in les halles that are just so adorable and they had my size and i loves them ever so much. i digress. i spend my time going to the market, or walking, or reading. really, i do exactly what i would do if i were at home in ky, but instead, in paris.
i even avoid grading journals in the exact same way. i choose to play a game or read and in this case, post about my banal life in paris.
today, i broke from tradition and went to the movies by myself. something i loathe doing. i love watching movies at home, even by myself, but the cinema is meant to be shared with someone. i gots nobody here to love me since my man (say it with a high pitch) went away. it sounds like a blues song, don't it.
but i saw the squid and the whale and really appreciated the messed up qualities portrayed by all the people in the movie. it was gritty, it was real, it was quirky, it was dark, it was funny in a dirty way, and it made me feel as though it said something meaningful. it will make you want to talk about it with others and definitely lends itself to being discussed. please, go see this film or rent it if it is out on dvd.
i do not recommend this film if you don't like going to the movies alone. even in paris.
