girl at large

it's been raining cats and dogs all day. we rented four dvd's to see us through–at the rate of 4.50euro each for one day. even the English goods store has to make a buck i suppose. i have four other DVD's, all still in plastic, unwatchable because the DVD player is Zone 2 (Europe) and the gifts, thoughtful as they were, are Zone 1 (USA). who came up with that brilliant plan?
the day was rounded out nicely when Ryan's Dad called. it's just not the same without his daily inquiry–"So like, what time is it there now?"
