J'arrive!

[evilhippo]

Okay... I really don't know where to start this. (This is mostly a way to keep myself awake past 9:00 here. I feel like I've been up since Friday morning at 5. Which... I sort of have, if you don't count the three and a half hours of half-conscious sleep I got on the airplane

OMG OMG OMG I'M SO PROUD OF YOU FOR GTFO THAT STUPID OFFICE! GOGOGO!

Also, totally jealous. Even if I'm also on vacation with BECCAAAAA ♥

...Did you watch Harper's on the flight? DIDYOUDIDYOUDIDYOU? :D

[evilhippo]

It is so, so nice to be tfo of the office. (-;

Harper's is for the flight home! Provided I can find a plug adapter, because if I can't my computer is going to be dead in... two hours. :/

WOO HOO, vicarious vacation enjoyment! Lovely pictures, and my dear, you are a CHAMPION for negotiating a foreign culture under stress. BRAVA!

[evilhippo]

Yay, glad you're enjoying the pictures. (-: It's been ages since I've taken any. But this is as good an excuse as any. (-; I really wish I knew more about French culture... I'm finding myself completely without a proper context to put things in here. Also, I'm constantly wondering just how bad my American accent is when I speak French. I used to be good at it, but I apparently left my French language ability in Chicago. Or lost it when I switched flights in Montreal.

I'm glad you got there safely! If you run out of money, you should do what Lola did in Run Lola Run: put your last Euro on a roulette wheel and scream until you win. Oh, or rob a grocery store! Then you might get to go to the Bastille!

[evilhippo]

Good plan! I'm going to make sure I know where to find a roulette wheel, just in case. Not sure where to look yet, though I did find some sex shops and adult video stores today. (-;

YAAAAAAAAAAYYYY PARIS!! I watched the Van Gogh episode of Doctor Who today and thought of you~!

I hope you can get the money situation figured out. DDD:

[evilhippo]

Hehe, I actually saw that painting today. Completely free of monsters, thankfully. Otherwise I would've had to use my temporally-confused phone as a time machine to set things right. Except I could probably only get to 1980. (-:

I've decided that if anyone can figure out how to turn my credit or debit card into cash, it'll be a bank, and I've seen plenty of those, so I'm not worried. I mean, other Americans manage to do this, and most of the travellers I've seen here seem to be flying by the seat of their pants, planning-wise, so it must be possible.

[zolac_no_miko]

Eeee, wonderful! Yeah, while I was watching the ep I was wondering if you'd been to the Musée D'Orsay yet. How is it?! Is it lovely?! I never got to go. T_T I was supposed to go to the Louvre, but my visit to Paris coincided with a bloody MUSEUM WORKERS STRIKE, so I only got to see the outside. TT_TT

And ha ha, I saw the picture of your phone. That's fantastic! ...What a crappy year to be stuck in, though. *shudder*

Okay, well. PLEASE DON'T STARVE.
