yay!!!!! i'm back!!!!!

some random thoughts i had while in paris/athens:

- i mean, seriously... could my bathroom BE any smaller?

- why do they put street names on buildings, and building names on street signs?

- lol... for all the hatred the french have for america, my hotel's e-mail address is hotelermitage@aol.com

- i met this crazy guy who assaulted all the asians he could find with japanese... he walked up to me randomly and yelled "konbanwa!" after we were done with our convo, he crossed the street and yelled the same thing at this other asian lady. she, however, was not as friendly as i and literally ran away from him.

- my oh MY... their trains (subway and commuter rail) run sooooooo smoothly

- they have no american channels on tv, but they DO have a french american idol on which they sing english songs... and guess what? alicia keyes was the guest star on june 3! i watched it from my hotel room!

- man, these europeans... i got frisked for the first time in the french airport... i mean, do i LOOK like a terrorist? (don't answer that... and no, they did NOT do a cavity search, just fyi...)

- french painters... can you find the odd woman out?

- and the ULTIMATE, BEST PAINTING IN FRANCE!!!

- and apparently in athens, a solid white line by the side of the road means "drive the middle of your vehicle over this line..." that's also why they have wide road shoulders...

but i still had fun!!!

For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition
and health, and it's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting
medical studies:

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the
Canadians, British or Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than
the Canadians, British or Americans.

3. The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks
than the Canadians, British or Americans.

4. The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer
heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and
suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

6. Ukrainians drink a lot of vodka, eat a lot of perogies, cabbage rolls
and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Apparently what kills you is
speaking English.

Ha-HAH! Let me see... I have lost like 29384722 pints of blood in the last 2 days. And I wish I could say I donated it, but apparently most of it just went on to the floor.

i've had this thought before, but i'd just like to share it again:

when the blind dream, do they see?

when the deaf dream, do they hear?

when the mute dream, do they speak?

if yes to any of these, then i suppose there is hope that in my dreams at least, i am productive.
