I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Whatever my outfits were that I wore in Paris, I think they all thought I was a whore (17 and dressing to impress in the 90's). I received many a weird look along the Seine one night.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I think I have been picturing the wrong Bermuda shorts. These are, like, photographic-looking prints of whales, etc.?

No, little tiny embroidered ones. Usually in green on pink, or yellow on light blue, or something like that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

When I was in Germany and Austria, people would come up to me and start talking in German. It was always a little weird to have to tell them "ich spreche nicht Deutsch! ich bin Americaner" Especially since, according to my friend Fritz, I speak my little bit of kindergarten German with a totally believeable accent.

My father's grandmother lived with his family for the whole time he was growing up. His grandmother only spoke German. My dad can barely stumble through a few words in German. When he needs to make himself understood, he can, but he's not even close to what you'd expect from someone who grew up with a one adult who only spoke German and two more who spoke it pretty frequently.

Oh, thanks. I was not aware of the existence of those.

Sorry about the looming library fine, msbelle. That sounds annoyingly high.

Now tagless for your comfort.

msbelle, thanks for reminding me that we, too, have some library videos that are overdue!

Barb, for the ultimate Georgetown preppies, try walking along the docks on a weekend morning. People wearing those shorts, sitting on boats with drinks. Usually blasting Hootie and the Blowfish.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I got a couple startled looks when I was in Italy last time, because my pronunciation of certain foreign languages (Italian, German) tends to be pretty good, thanks to choral music.
