Heading home on the Vélib. Blvd Port-Royal, April 2008
Going to Paris for New Year's. We were presented with a perfect storm of cheap airline tickets, a somewhat stronger dollar, and no full-time work here in Austin. Ten days in France seemed the only rational response. I suppose this is my personal equivalent of heading for higher ground.
It also seemed a nice way to kick down the door that is 2009.
The forecast calls for highs in the upper thirties and low forties, long visits with friends, aimless wandering, and gratitude both for what is and what will be.
Full report to follow.
I was inexplicably filled with happiness and hope when I read this posting. Kick that damn door IN Miss Jean. (And '08? Don't let the door hit you on the ASS as you leave...)
