I just realised it is October, and that means NaNoWriMo is just a month away. For all you normal people out there, that's when thousands of people around the world write a novel during the month of November by themselves, together. Go to nanowrimo.org to know more ( Read more... )

i thought I'd update more while in Mexico, but the Wi-Fi keeps coming in and out. It is now 23:18 Mexico time and the Internet just when out. Either it'll come back on before I go to bed, or I'll be posting sometime tomorrow. I just adore Mexico, regardless of what it could look like. Everytime I come into Cuernavaca I feel like I'm coming home. ( Read more... )

Eaten food that's really, really bad for me at every meal, sometimes skipping the meal part and diving straight into nuts, cookies, muffins, beer. For breakfast I had cream cheese bagels and croissants. My chest now hurts and my clothes are tighter. WTF? Can't we have days like these sometimes?

Je prends un break en ce moment mais Charlie a vomi quelquechose de vert en projectile toute la nuit (et non, il n'avait rien mangé de vert). Ça a l'air d'une gastro entérite . Il fait vraiment pitié. L'année passée nous nous sommes (ok, moi je me suis ) retrouvé á passé une nuit puis un jour à l'hopital avec lui plogué sur les antibiotiques et des ( Read more... )

1. Stop drinking beer everyday just because it's there.
2. Excercise. You might have more energy and be more inclined to clean the house and not eat everything in sight.
3. Call your Baba. She's your grandmother. Just because you don't usually talk to her and your kids go completely mental when you get on the phone, doesn't mean you shouldn't call the ( Read more... )

My son Antoine, the 4 year-old, was bobbling his head to a song someone in an ajoining car was listening to in traffic yesterday. We were coming back from my parents country house and I didn't know what to do, because it was Ludacris and closed windows didn't keep the sound out.

Move bitch, get out the way, get out the way bitch get out the way...
