Citoyenne la traductrice jacobine

I think I'm depressed. I'm in Southern California, the land of no culture. Whatsoever. The local paper has a Sports Section ten times larger than its World Affairs Section. There is nothing to do here. I can't wait to get back home... and then to France... *sigh* Good sigh, not bad sigh. Hopefully anyway. We may have offers on our house, which we are selling (it's a prerequisite that it get sold for going to France). So if all goes according to plan, we'll leave on the 21 juillet, and come back the 29 juillet. It's cutting it a bit close to August, but if we can't go for Bastille Day, we can at least go to the 210e anniversary of Robespierre's death *sobs*. Okay, I'm better now. *pets image of l'Incorruptible* I guess life's not that bad, (present company not included), I just wish I had more French Revolutionaries by me. And I want a kitten. I think I'll go to a shelter and get a little green-eyed kitten and name it Maximilien Robespierre. Then I can say to people I have a kitten and it's name is Max. Max? That's not very original, they'll say. And I'll say, well, actually, it's Maximilien Robespierre. *awed silence*.

Ha! If only. Oh and just a little something to brighten your day: apparently the House of Representatives has decided that flag-burning (that is, of the US flag), should be made illegal... and the Senate looks likely to follow. Bande des salauds! I better go burn all my American flags whilst I still can! *excuses self to go do that*

Bonjour, folks... what's up? Yeah... I'm just sitting at home in my living room...my mom and Jasmine (my nanny's 14 year old great-niece) are watching Sex and the City and I'm listening a little. Jasmine is visiting for a few weeks from so-cal after our Newport Beach trip.

I'm upset...very few good het fanfics involving Estella...and no good Estella/Diamond slash. Guess us minor character hobbit fans are out of luck, huh:( (On a more positive note, The Roots of the Ivy- best fanfic ever- updates almost every day, so I usually have something to read.) No new reviews, though.

I just saw Spiderman 2, too. It was better than I thought it would be- I'm not the biggest comic book fan.

Ariel's back from England and she's going to be helping me redecorate my room...SQUEE! I'm so excited! I'm painting my room green. After that I'm going to New Orleans avec ma cousine, ma tante, et ma soeur...woah, where did that come from? - major french meltdown. Then I'm going to Vet Camp in the city and then...HIGH SCHOOL! I'm going to Paly!!! Wow...I'm gonna be a freshman.

My hair's not behaving so I unloaded $70 on hair products at Sephora...I hope they work:( I also got bras from Sephora and a really sexy sundress from Macy's...along with *ulp* a pair of seven jeans.

One last thing before I go to bed...I made roasted lamb, taboule, cake, and challah for Shabbat dinner...it was yummy, but Mom didn't show up.

Oh, and:
