back in paris

I'm back in Paris and feeling exhausted but also pretty karaoké deprived. Although I want to do some singing tonight, I can tell I'm probably going to watch a movie, drink some tea, and crash. Singing along should be enough of an apératif for the karaoké to follow in the next couple of days.

In Brussels, I got my friend Sarah a pack of belgian chocolates, so now the new project is figuring out how to ship these to her. My instinct says "bubble wrap" but I somehow doubt that would be successful. According to the Aussi boys, I think "like a bloke" and I do "bloke-y things." I have a sneaking suspicion this bubble wrap idea is another one of those times... Only one way to find out, though!

Now the only thing left to do is make sure I don't contract a deadly illness before this weekend's london trip to see Sophia and Sarah. Both seem to have awesome things planned for me, but I haven't even really thought about it that much. I'm just excited to get there and check everything out.

  1. Hi Emily. I vote for getting some sleep tonight. Staying busy is a good thing, but you do not want to get the swine or worse, mono.

    Here is the store in London that was in the NYTimes - ANNIE'S VINTAGE COSTUME AND TEXTILES. It is in Camden Passage in Islington. Apparently Camden Passage has lots of boutiques, chocolate shops and antique stores.

  2. Oh my god, I found the most awesome karaoke bar in Brussels when I went there in September. I think it was called Backstage.

  3. Think like a bloke??
    Are they uncomfortable with any woman thinking for herself?
