Anorak

Sarah has just told me that her mum is making her take an anorak to Latitude...I said they were slimming. 
This was her response:
"they're only slimming because they're bigger than anything else in the world and they go with NOTHING which makes it SEEM like they go with everything because they go with everything badly but an equal amount."


this is possibly the best rant ever...and yet...SHE'LL BE WEARING ONE FOR THE WHOLE WEEKEND

lassst friddayyy nighhttt...just kidding Tuesday night 12/07/11

Well I told you something bad would happen....and now I think it's 1-1 in my relationship with the Toulouse public transport system!
So I left around 8.30 last night and it was spitting...before I left Fabrice was talking about a massive storm that was coming to Toulouse tonight and I was like oh yeah that's bad, not think that i'd be in the middle of it in an hour!!! The worst thing is, I walked out of my room, looked at the parapluie (umbrella) and thought, oh no I won't need that....BOY WAS I WRONG. I met up with Juan, Alice and Julia at Carmes and we were SOAKED just getting to the metro station! Anyway we got to Cafarelli and saw Virginia walking down the stairs, she thought no one was coming so was leaving!!! Anyway, she came with us in the end! We walked to St Pierre, and I SWEAR in the sunshine the walk was like 2 minutes, however, this walk in the pissing rain was like 15 minutes and I was dying...my feet were soaked and so hair was so crazily curly...anyway! We got to the shisha bar and it was really nice and we had a good time! It was so cheap! 9euros for one pipe thingy (that was split between the 5 of u- 2euros ish each!) Then after that we went to the pub and I had this amazing beer drink called Monoco? Which is half a pint with fruit syrup in it!
Anywaaaaaaaaay, Virginia and I left at 11 to get the metro, and I needed to get the night bus at 11.30. Of course I got to the busstop just as the bus was leaving, so I ran to the other side and literally begged him to stop AND HE DID!!! It was a miracle!!! Myriam and Fabrice were impressed that he stopped when I told them this morning (after they laughed at me for about 20 minutes for being in the middle of the storm), because the night bus drivers are known for driving off the minute it's 11.30. The next challenge was finding my stop, which is the church, but it's always so dark I can never see it!!! Anyway of course I got off a stop too early and had to walk, which wasn't too far, but I got SOAKED....AGAIN. got back to the house and had a shower to increase my body temperature and then went to bed. Woke up this morning with my hair looking like I had a perm. Jesus.
Now, Adam and I are watching Pokemon (WHY IS BROCK CALLED PIERRE??), he's going to a friends at 12. So at 12, I'm going to shower/shop for food/pack for weekend, as I'm going out tonight! (god help me) There is a big Bastille Day festival and apparently we're doing an all nighter...oh dear.
bonne journeee!

2nd day of babysitting and Adam has a friend over called Naila, she's so cute, they're like little boyfriend and girlfriend!! When she knocked on the door, Adam ran towards it to open it!
Anywayyyy they played all morning, we went to get pizza for lunch, we've just finished watching Ice Age 1 or L'age de glace (lol) (yes we watched the 3rd one yesterday) and now we're watching Hercules. Well I am, Adam and Naila are chasing each other around with a plastic bow and arrow, basically killing each other, it's hilarious!!! And I'm just sitting here drinking a cup of tea watching them.
FABRICE HAS RETURNED WAHAY. I'm going to get Anais, peace outtt

Bonsoirrrrr
Today was the first day of looking after Adam all on my own and it went really well! We played games, cooked cheese straws, went to the park, watched Ice Age 3 (highly recommend, it's quality!) and generally chilled. In the park I managed to create a game in which he did loads of running and I sat down and sunbathed haha! By 5pm we were both so tired and basically asleep, which has made babysitting easy tonight (I hope...please don't wake up because I've said that). Tomorrow I'm looking after Adam again but with one of his friends Naela, who is so sweet, so hopefully they will play together and let me sit and do nothing haha.
Spoke to mother and Tina on Skype today which was hilarious as they got to see the kids and hear Myriam and Fabrice have a fight! good times!!
I am so tired, but enjoying the free evening time to watch American programs in French (Private Practice and that Erica program where she goes back in time...)
Tout a l'heure! off out tomorrow evening so hopefully then i'll have something hilarious to tell you...hilarious for you not me of course!
