Whoa, if you watch Dancing with the Stars were you as blown away that Sabrina and Mark got kicked off as I was? Wow. I'm still shocked. They aren't my favorite dance couple, but you gotta admit the girl can dance. I definitely thought she was going to make it to the end. Then again, as I saw who was in the bottom two I'll confess that I was hoping Cameron would make it through. Hey, he may not be as good a dancer as the Cheetah gal, but he's sure makes some nice eye candy. Tell me I'm wrong. Ladies, you know you were thinking the same thing, "it'll be a shame to lose such a hot piece o' ass." Don't lie, you were too thinking it. I did feel bad for Sabrina though - she looked like she was going to cry. And what's going on with those two? Thanks baby and I love you. A wee bit weird if you ask me. Could there be more to this duo than just dancing? hmmm...
Yeah, so I finally watched DWTS and I'm so, so happy that I didn't ruin it by looking at the website yesterday, as you know I was tempted to do. But, alas, that is all I have to say for the moment. Ciao!

About Me
- Melanie
- Gosh, we've been in France for just over 3 years now! I can't believe it. My DH (darling...or sometimes damn...husband) works as a post-doc for an American University at CERN. After nearly 9 months of freeloading unemployment I finally started working with an English Language Theatre company teaching drama to kids ages 4 - adult (and I'm still there teaching). It's a challenge, but fun. So, if you take a peek at my blog you'll learn more than you ever wanted to know about me and perhaps a bit about the trials and adventures of living in a foreign country. Sadly, with work and life interfering I haven't had so much time or inclination to blog in recent months...almost a year between blog entries. I'll try my best to update at least once a month... Let the games continue!

Books I'm currently reading/have read
The Well of Lost Plots
by Jasper Fforde
Third book in a series featuring Thursday Next, Special Operative in Literature. Fforde has created a crazy, surreal world where time travel is routine, cloning is a reality (dodos are the resurrected pet of choice), and literature is taken very, very, VERY seriously. These books are fun especially for fans of literature. It does take a little bit to get into this bizarre world, but once you've got a handle on it it's a fun read.
Talk to the Snail: Ten Commandments for Understanding the French
by Stephen Clarke
This is a very funny book about living in France and dealing with French people. I can relate to some of the authors experiences, but he lives in Paris and I truly think that living in the French countryside and living in a large city is very different. It's just like living in New York City as opposed to a small town in Upstate Western New York - two TOTALLY different lifestyles!

"Dear Lord
I want to thank you for being with me so far this day. I haven't been impatient, lost my temper, been grumpy, judgmental, or envious of anyone.
But I will be getting out of bed in a minute, and I think I will really need your help then.
Amen"
- an Irish prayer given to Lauren Bacall by Gregory Peck (origin unknown)
