another busy day. i gots me a cover to design. i’ve been looking at pictures of trucks all afternoon. i need something arty farty to do – and not a wedding invite. this place is doing my head in.
i have fixed the newscaster hair crisis by wearing a hair band today which i don’t think looks any better but at least i don’t look like ted koppel. french guy is back sitting across from me and he was looking at me funny so i thought he was contemplating my hair. it turns out he was just zoning out in between bites of his baguette. every time i’d look in his general direction, our eyes would meet and i would have to quickly look away and pretend i was trying to look out the window. i hope he’s gone tomorrow.
it’s cold. i mean it’s sooo cold. it was in the 40’s (F) and that is cold here. i thought my legs were going to fall off yesterday while waiting for the tram – they were shivering so much. have i wussed out? i mean, i’m from the midwest – we get below zero days and lots and lots of snow. my dad would laugh at me if he saw me at home, in this weather with a hot water bottle, 5 layers of clothes and a blanket wrapped around me. in fact, all of my friends back would laugh at me. the first day we got like after a long winter, we’d be outside in t-shirts and shorts, celebrating the fact that spring has finally come! now look at me. man, i’ve gone soft.
