Time to wonder on my own...

I generally see as a good thing.

I have had a few days to wrap up from the cold, stick on a few good albums and discover the big and little wonders of Paris. This pic is from the pleasantly placid St. Sulpice church (you remember, the one in the Da Vinci code) in the middle of the bustling St. Germain des Pres area.

Including that place I have also recently discovered:
*The jardin AND Palais du Luxembourg
*Where to get 2 euro coffee (may not sound cheap, but it is)
*The Czech cultural center
*The US Embassy
*The St. Germain church (it's a millenium and a half old, and has a Spanish language mass!)
*The American Church
*Where to get a sandwich grec and frites for 4 euro
*Where to get some authentic Russian beer
*Where to see a movie for less than 6 euro

And these are only the things I can think about right now. There are still many things to discover and my dPod (That's dell's shitty version of the iPod) has 15 gigs, so there's much more music to be heard.

Last night I discovered this wonderful metal thing that can rolled down at night to block the sun in the morning. Then I rediscovered the bottle of Melatonin I had in my suitcase. Then I programmed my alarm but never got around to setting it. Clearly I made it to class this morning at 9am. Whoops.

    I need one of those metal sun-blocking shutter things, the sun has the cheek of waking me at noon every morning, I won't stand for it!!
