Duncan, he of the french beaurocratic woes, was kind enough to bring a tv antenna into the household yesterday! woo-hoo! french tele! surprisingly enough, Friends translates quite well! or i've just seen the reruns so much i've memorized them. huh, well, that throws my i-understand-french pride out the window now doesn't it?

went out to get a dress for the wedding, came back with a sweater instead. but you should see it. i like my tits in this top.

i came 'round to mom's the other day to find the apartment in quite a state (aside from the usual state). seems Bert has taken over my old room now that the weather has turned cold. and you know how Bert likes a domestic project. inside of a few days, he and Mom have purchased a proper stove (with an oven) for the kitchen.
it's never had one..just a stove top burner and some convection oven/microwave/grill combo ripped from the galley of the Enterprise with an instruction manual translated from German to Japanese to French. not a very helpful item in the kitchen. so, it's gone. replaced by a very nice new white straight-forward stove–gas burners and a proper oven underneath. Bert managed to get it installed, including the gas line and even sawing away the countertop to fit. only it left a big gap all around the edges. solution? edge it with teak wood of course!
the house is suspiciously begining to resemble the boat. -
the scene outside the front bedroom balcony in Cannes. it's taking some getting used to..Antibes seems to me so much greener and smaller, almost 'quaint', but i'm sure i'll find more to love as i get to know Cannes better. Miss Liz was a great help this past weekend, taking me over to the huge Marche Forville..must be ten times larger than the Marche Provencial in Antibes..everything you could want for produce, cheeses, flowers, etc. i'll be doing my daily shopping there for certain. i seem to have also gained a boyfriend..or so the older, married fellow who runs the pizzeria downstairs would like to believe. i lost something in the translation, but apparently, i'm his. huh. -
a few pics of Jack for Ma and Pa so far away. enjoy! fyi: don't ever call me a cat. i hate that. of course, to the French, that's what my name reads like.."Kaaht". ugh. -
of all the luck! i finally get a decent (as opposed to horrifying and ridiculous) reply from an online match service (a rather nicer phrase than online dating, don't you think?) and WHERE is he? just WHERE is he from? MADISON BLOODY WISCONSIN. and WHAT is his screen name? wisconsin fucking BADGER! click here and scroll down to Oct. 4th blog entry. oh, thank god it's funny, cause otherwise i'm just going to be reduced to tears.

my favorite blog guy, Jeff Philips, has posted quite a few new shots on his photoblog. i love him. seriousy, i think i do. why is it always photographers? there was that fellow in highschool with the Brownie collection and the vespers. i've been known to develop unhealthy attachments to wedding photographers on occasion..the one at Tom's was yum. and of course, who can forget Mr. Short-Pants? i even had a pretend boyfriend once in Savannah..he was a photographer too.
if the theory of being attracted to men similiar to your father holds true, i need to meet a short, balding, near-sighted photographer who as a hobby dabbles in cardiovascular surgery. hmm. -
my brother Thomas leaves for LA today! lots of luck! and love.
wait, isn't LA on fire? saw a glimpse of something on the news last night. hmm..not good, have more and more friends out there. Affable Dan, Balls, and Engaged Kristan, seems to be more each day. is there something about LA i don't know? or is it just the adage..tilt up the States and all the nuts roll to the west?
