WAKE UP AND IT'S A NEW DAY
01 Maria Rosa by Vera Kelsey and Candido Portinari (1942), originally uploaded by A Journey Round My Skull.
I have my friends from Nantes with me. The first thing they did when they arrived was open their bags and pull out:
A shoe box full of cheese
3 bottles of champagne
2 different assortments of chocolates [one home made]
Fois gras
And a a bread I can't remember the name of but it is super thin, filled with garlic and called something like "Pre Crazy"
So tonight we will be drinking and eating and making a radio show together for their show THE BRAIN all about the different turns of phrases in each language and the literal translations.
For example:
"faire une perruque" translates as "to make a wig".
What it means though is to do personal work at work. Like 200,000 print making your own pornozine on the work colour photocopier. Which I could do actually thinking about it as I am actually at work right now et je fais une perruque avec le blog. So, I digress. Now you know what I will be doing and I hope you all have something fun planned.
Happy New Year to all my lovely friends!!!
I was going to say something about dying in a fire to people I hate, but I actually felt too mean saying that now like I would curse myself. So consider yourselves lucky that you get off once on the last day of 2009.
And what a shit year for me it had been.
