I went to my first sporting event in ten years tonight.
It was amazing.
I drank "Amstel Free."

Monday

She breaks.

The hard drive on my computer was erased, and I have been left with the task of re-building my music and photo library.

It's been an excellent exercise in editing.

I'm listening to 'Just like a woman' for the first time in months.

mon dieu...

Tuesday

France.

I cannot receive text messages from my step dad anymore. Doesn't mean the blog is dead. But, the content will be adjusted...




I have been in France for just over two months. Today is exactly my two month anniversary living in Nantes.

I think about my friends every day. I miss them. I miss feeling like the people around me really know who I am. I know wonderful people here, but it's different.

I didn't think I would miss the city as much as I do. I've never been gone from Seattle for this long in my entire life.

Two months down. Six to go.

dogs

Step dad called and told me that he was chased by a pack of wild ducks this morning. This is not a joke. It actually happened. He said he was walking by, and they all just started charging him. He said one of the ducks was named "Quid Pro Quo."

This call should have put me in good spirits. But it didn't make up for the fact that I had to drink fucking tea because we were out of coffee. Tea never does it for me.

They're all just dogs.

Monday

telephone line

Step dad has taken to calling me on the phone when he is upstairs getting ready to sleep. He did it twice last night. No text messages in the last two days.









It's going to be a beautiful day in seattle.

"Ipso Facto or Habeus Corpus? Or Perpituity?

My step-dad writes a comic about a duck. He has been doing this for years, since I was in high school. The duck is named "Plebes" and he has friends. I am assuming here that Habeus Corpus, Ipso Facto, and Perpituity are all friends of his. Plebes owns a pancake shack and is constantly preoccupied with fiscal responsibility and clams.

My step-dad integrates Plebes and all of his friends in to everyday life and conversation. Sometimes I will get phone calls informing me that Plebes is upset with me. Or that Plebes is disappointed with me. It has also been made clear to me on several occasions that Plebes doesn't have thumbs.

Thursday

I am going to try and post every message he sends me as it is sent.

He is very focused on "buddy budders" at the moment. That is the nick name he has assigned to my younger sister, Hana.
