today, i start with my dream from last night: me and vee were with pere and at costco. i remember thinking "yes! pere is here, i can get all the stuff i really need, and all the heavy stuff too!" and i ran around getting such luxuries as q-tips, organic oatmeal, a large bottle of lotion, flour, chocolate chips, lots of milk, and of all things, a blender. and i remember being very happy.
i think my subconscious is forming an Anti-France and Living Sans Parents Campaign.
Tuesday: (yesterday) i went shopping with melanie. it was at the new mall out in beziers called Polygone (not pouligen) and it is very nice. quite high end with stores like benetton, guess, levis, a whole bunch of ridiculous french ones and h&m. i tried to gauge what french fashion is this fall and i think i like it. not that i can afford even this season's gloves. it consists of various styles of tunic sweaters to be worn with leggings and belts and mini-vests and sweaters and amazing long coats. there's also knee length skirts and knee high boots paired with poncho type sweaters and belts and other things. the french have more words for the different types of clothes there are than english speaking world does.
melanie is an interesting shopper. she spent over 500 euro while we were there. but on 4 or 5 items. and i didn't think anything she bought was worth what she paid for it. least of all the 50 euro long sleeved black tee from levis, that said san francisco on it in large letters. but i don't judge (hahahahaha).
wednesday (today): went shopping again with melanie to a different mall and this time gladys and clara came along. we were shopping for winter clothes for little clara. she picked up some very nice things, almost an entire new wardrobe. all she had to do was smile at her grandma and she got what she wanted. example: benetton winter boots that wouldn't last an hour in the snow and a handbag to match. we even went back to polygone where i picked myself up a little birthday gift. boots! and i like em! :)
we had lunch at a chinese buffet place and never has food tasted less asian. oh well. i napped when i got home and woke up to clean. the studio is now spick and span (that looks so strange written out) and that's how i like it when i come home from a trip.
speaking of which, i'm heading to montpellier tomorrow for the weekend. i'll be staying with jules and monique who have graciously agreed to put up with me for 5 days. i am pretty excited.
i wish everyone a happy halloween and i hope i have one too!
