My new flat
I am moving. I will be living alone for the first time since Paris. Considering that living alone in Paris made me very, very weird, I am looking forward to seeing the results of this experiment. I am reading my to-do list from Paris now, it has entries such as: 14-06-03
Go back to the Marrais, maybe even back to Metal Pointu’s, look for stones
for Annie, flirt with cute girl, look elsewhere for a belt for Luc- Turbigo
to Reaumur to Vieille du temple to Francs Bourgeois- Check.
Buy some incense from somewhere-Failure, time was short.
Another Falafel? Rosiers, Failure, ate at home, was not hungry. Also it was
the Sabbath, so they were most likely closed
Go to Rue Mouffetard get a hand bag for Anna- Rue des 4 fils to Sebastapol
to Rue des Ecoles, and I know the way from there- Failure, time was short
attempt again
Plan dinner with Margaret, cook at home vs. go out- No solid plans as of
yet
Think of a suitable gift for Mom and Dad- Failure
Dinner with Cornelia, be home and showered by 8- What will we eat? Salade
aux Chevre Chaud et ?- Check, Success we had a lovely dinner
and: 25-06-03
Have breakfast at le Creperie st. Germaine, enjoy it, look for Marchand, ask
for him, demand him. -Done, except for the bit about Marchand, the door was
open so I figured he was elsewhere. Crepe was excellent, though.
Go to the Jardin de Tuileries, go to the Arc de Triomphe- Done, It is quite
big, and biking on the Champs Elysee is quite an experience.
Take St. Michel across the river turn left onto Rivoli (or if I feel like it
onto Quai de Horloge, then right onto le Pont Neuf, then left onto Rivoli),
and then left onto Ave. du Gal. Lemonnier
One interesting question in all of this, who is Margaret? The name comes up in other places in my to-do list, but I am at a loss. The later parts of the list, when I started to buy four bottles of wine for dinner, blanc de blanc to drink while cooking, something to go with the first course, followed by something nice for the main course, and finally a wine to either accompany dessert or to be dessert are full on weird. Especially since I was making these dinners for myself and myself alone.
