So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

I got up, listened to FG "Fucking Good" Radio.... yeah, after every couple of songs they say, "FG Radio... F! Fucking! G! Good! ... Fucking Good Radio!" They play "electro and dance". After that I ate some pieces of white bread, which has become my staple, and until today, the only thing I've been eating. There were occasional coco puffs. I surfed the web, got mad at web comments [WHY do I READ them??], and organized a weekend trip for Sharkboy and myself to go Strasbourg for the giant Christmas market: I'm pretty excited. After that I took a shower for the first time in...... maybe 5 days... shaved my legs, very clean. I put on CLEAN clothes, which I washed last night. Then I ATE a HOTDOG. Yeah, that's right, a HOTDOG, with ketchup and everything, oh, it was so good, and it didn't hurt my stomach!!!! I surfed the internet some more, and by this time it was 4:30 already, so I went out to the Orange (France Telecom) store to try to get a phone/internet/mobile. The saleswoman was craaaazy. The adorable little old woman in front of me was trying to get a sim card, and the saleslady said, "GIVE ME YOUR ID CARD" and the woman said, "What? I need an ID card?" and the saleslady said, "You've always, ALWAYS needed an ID card." and the old lady said, "well the last time I got a phone..." and the saleslady said, "You've always needed an ID card, ALWAYS." This was also funny because the saleslady must have been younger than me. What does she know about how things always have been? So I was scared. But when my little quiet sick french voice emerged to ask my little quiet carefully posed questions, the crazy saleslady softened a bit and explained to me that I needed a bank account routing number, an ID card, and a lease in order to set up my internet/tv/phone/mobile. Hélas, I must put it off until Monday when I can get my bank account routing number from my office. On the positive side, I can apparently get a landline that calls any country for free for unlimited minutes, DSL, cable TV and a cell phone for a total of ~50 euros a month! That's not bad! I then went to a store where they sell masquerade outfits, almost exclusively men's masquerade outfits. The internet said that it was a cool store but that they weren't very nice to their customers. I found this to be accurate. I wanted to walk to the Gardens of Luxembourg to sit in the sunshine, but I was just too tired from walking the half a block to the Orange store so I decided to go home. I stopped at the grocery store and found the holy grail: SALTINES. I also found apple sauce. So I got some more bread, saltines and apple sauce, and had a lovely dinner. Then, as I was sitting down to write this entry, I saw 99 red balloons floating across the sky. Ok, so they were all colors, and I did not count them, but there were so many colored balloons just floating along! A lot of them were in a big bunch all together, and then the rest were just strung out across the sunset. +Eiffel Tower. Excellente. 6 Comments. Very good to hear that your situation has gotten better. :D Also, those are cool pictures. I want to visit. :0 » randomjunk on 2011-10-15 02:32:49 Try eating wholemeal instead.. it's a healthier alternative to white bread and it'll take longer for you to get hungry. » Nuttz on 2011-10-15 11:35:19 OK so people have been asking me if the French people are snooty...and I really only have your experiences to go off of....what do you think? Isolated incidents or generalizable encounters?? My goodness I'm glad you got to feeling better. Can't have you come see me feeling all ill and poisoned » The-Muffin-Man on 2011-10-17 01:56:19 whencanicomevisit » undisputed on 2011-10-17 02:21:09 Hey! Yay, I have a fan of my writing! Haha, thanks for the kind words. The blog over there is sort of a creative nonfiction assignment. I use the entries as a first draft or a template and go on to develop the idea I have down further. It usually morphs into something else entirely, like the cafe scene changed into a sort of first and second person metafiction narrative (I can send it to you if you want to read it!). Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Cheers =] » eXiled on 2011-10-21 05:24:24 MAGICAL Saltines are delish and excellent for snacking. My house needs more interesting cheese than "American" and "provolone". » invisible on 2011-10-25 05:14:52
