I am kind of really excited for Texas, even though it is forever and a year away, or so it seems! I wonder if December will ever get here?
I have already started a mental list of places I want to go and shop or eat or visit.
Lets start with: a real american hotdog. weird, but yes, i would love to have an american hotdog. those don't really exist here. the french version of a hotdog is a sausage in a baguette with cheese melted on top. not what i would consider a hotdog.
next we'll go with somewhere that has a soda fountain (which is everywhere) and ice cubes. i will take a lot please and thank you. mexican food is definitely very very high on my list and often while I am there.
I am also so excited to know that I will be there during the after christmas sales so who wants to take me shopping after christmas?
So today I am going to experience something new. This afternoon I have my first eye doctors appointment in France. And without my insurance. This should be interesting.
The thing is, my job comes with insurance, but you see, the French government is slower than a turtle and just trying to get a metro pass takes a month, so can you imagine how long it takes for them to process insurance paperwork? I think last year i finally got my insurance card halfway through the year. Long story short, I'll probably be paying for this one out of pocket, yipee! Oh the joys of growing up and becoming a real full fledge adult. It means you actually have to save for times like this and not get to go spend your money on everything cool anymore. :-( But I do have to admit, being able to see again would be a little cooler than a new pair of shoes since at this point in time I can't really see the shoes to appreciate them. haha. I'll let you know how this experience pans out... hopefully it'll be drama free but nothing in my life so far has been drama free so don't count on it.
Alright, well i'm off to go explore a big saturday market that takes place just down the street from me... have fun my friends!
Love, moi
